Crab Meat Filling

Method

Crab Meat Filling Preparation

  1. 1

    Mixing the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped green onions, and finely chopped celery.

  2. 2

    Seasoning

    Sprinkle the Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper into the mixture. Mix gently to combine all ingredients thoroughly without breaking up the crab meat too much.

  3. 3

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Po'boy Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare the Bread

    While the crab mixture is chilling, slice the French bread rolls lengthwise without cutting all the way through.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of the crab meat filling on the bottom half of each roll.

  3. 6

    Add Toppings

    Layer shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, and pickles on top of the crab meat filling. Drizzle hot sauce over the toppings to taste.

  4. 7

    Close and Serve

    Close the sandwiches and serve immediately while the bread is fresh and crusty.
