Ingredients
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup sherry vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chopped shallots
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 3/4 cup blue cheese
- 2 cups shredded white cabbage
- 2 cups shredded red cabbage
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley leaves
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup masa flour
- Creole seasoning
- 32 each large Louisiana oysters
- 1 cup Emeril's BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
- 8 individual French bread rolls or pistolletts
Directions
In a small mixing bowl, whisk the oil and vinegar together. Add the shallots and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk well. Fold in the blue cheese and continue to whisk until well blended. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cabbages and onion. Add the dressing and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Add the parsley and mix well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. In a shallow bowl, combine the flours. Season with Creole seasoning. Season the oysters with Creole seasoning. Dredge the oysters in the seasoned flour, coating completely. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with Creole seasoning. To assemble, spread the BBQ sauce over both sides of the rolls. Place 3 or 4 of the oysters on the bottom of each roll. Spoon some of the slaw over the oysters. Place the top of each roll over the slaw and serve.

This is a hit with everyone who tastes it! Even my "I hate seafood" daughter devours these sandwiches because the sweetness of the oysters is so well balanced by the incredible slaw's tanginess.

This recipe is wonderful. However, I have used the Cruchy Blue Cheese Slaw many times. It is good with Cajan Fried Chicken, cools the palate. Everyone wants this Slaw recipe, since it has no mayo and it is refreshing
