- New Orleans, LA
A po' boy (also po-boy, po boy, or poor boy) is a traditional
submarine sandwich from Louisiana. It almost always
consists of meat, usually roast beef, or fried seafood.
The meat is served on baguette-like New Orleans French
bread, known for its crisp crust and fluffy center.
A key ingredient that differentiates po' boys from other submarine sandwiches is the
bread. Typically, the French bread comes in two-foot-long "sticks". Standard sandwich
sizes might be a half po' boy, about six inches long (called a "Shorty") and a full po' boy,
at about a foot long. The traditional versions are served hot and include fried shrimp, and
oysters. Soft shell crab, catfish, crawfish, Louisiana hot sausage, fried chicken breast,
roast beef, and French fries are other common variations. The last two are served with
gravy.
A "dressed" po' boy has lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayonnaise; onions are optional.
Non-seafood po' boys will also usually have mustard; the customer is expected to specify
"hot" or "regular"—the former being a coarse-grained Creole mustard and the latter being
American yellow mustard.
The New Orleans roast beef po' boy is generally served hot with gravy and resembles a
Chicago Italian beef sandwich in appearance and method of preparation, although the
size, bread, and toppings differ. To make it, a cut of beef (usually chuck or shoulder) is
typically simmered in beef stock with seasonings such as garlic, pepper, thyme, and bay
for several hours. The beef can be processed into "debris" by cutting it to shreds when
done (folklore says that a po' boy roast is done when it "falls apart with a hard stare") and
simmering the shredded beef in the pot for a longer time to absorb more of the juice and
seasoning.
In the late 1800s fried oyster sandwiches on French loaves were known in New Orleans
and San Francisco as "oyster loaves", a term still in use. The sandwich was alternately
called a "peacemaker" or "La Mediatrice".
There are countless stories as to the origin of the term po' boy. The more popular theory
claims that "po' boy" was coined in a New Orleans restaurant owned by Benny and Clovis
Martin (originally from Raceland, LA), former streetcar conductors. In 1929, during a four-
month strike against the streetcar company, the Martin brothers served their former col-
leagues free sandwiches. The Martins' restaurant workers jokingly referred to the strikers
as "poor boys", and soon the sandwiches themselves took on the name. In Louisiana
dialect, this is naturally shortened to "po' boy."
