I took the class today 5/22 and the chef was great and this po’ boy was amazing. I’m a po’boy lover and I LOVED this dish so much. Authentic. Shocking and Thankful and it’s on my regular home menu now. I took all the chef’s recommendations...I used a bit of creole seasoning in the remoulade (mixture of my own and Paul P’D seafood) and I shook my Tabasco many times in the sauce. I dressed just like the chef and I though it would be too much — no it was HEAVEN.
