In a city full of po’boys, there are a few that stand out from the rest, and Liuzza’s by the Track is home to one of them. This unique po’boy takes two iconic culinary dishes, the po’boy and BBQ shrimp, and combines them for one of the most mouthwateringly good po’boys you’ve ever had. Roll up your sleeves, and grab a stack of napkins… you’re going to need them to get through this monster sandwich!

In the shadows of the New Orleans Fairgrounds sits a fairly unassuming yet cheerful building, Liuzza’s by the Track.

Po’boys lovingly get rated by how many napkins you use, and this one is certainly a 10/10 napkin kind of po’boy.
