food Roast Beef Po' Boy, Inspired by Parasol's in New Orleans

I'd rather a good roux over KB any day. That said, I seriously need to try a non shrimp po boy next time we go out for one. The only time I've had a po boy that wasn't shrimp was from Mother's in New Orleans, and had the Ferdi special. It was outstanding the first time we went, but disappointing every time since. Next time we hit up our local fave po boy joint I'm getting a roast beef!

MeatHead,
 
Ole Tyme Grocery by the UL campus makes a mean meatball po boy and they have a good shrimp and roast beef as well.
 
Boiling the roast against my instincts.... per the recipe

Good call! How was it?

Kitchen Bouquet gravy is going

And my store didn't have Leidenheimer's bread (DAMN!), but they had the next best thing..

Sliced thin as I can by hand, drowned with gravy, and popped in the oven (where's JayT?) for 45 minutes.

After eating this thing, I can only say it's as close to the real deal as you can get at home. Highly recommended! Try it. You won't be sorry. Go heavy on the mayo

Phil, that looks amazing; but the true test is did the gravy leak down your forearms?  I think the sloppier the better.  
Man I got to try this.

Can't go wrong with Reising's. It's made with N.O. water also. lol.

Hey, the final product looked great! Awesome Job!!! :onfire:  :dance:  :party:
You know I never read the bottom of the Reising's bread before. I wonder if they're Lutheran also. LOL. "wonderfully stubborn" I love it!

It passed the messy test. It was a 4 napkin sandwich.

I had never noticed it before either. Good stuff!
 
Looks great Phil.  I would have been suspect about boiling the roast too, but looks like it turned out great.
 
Chris, while your sandwich looks great, you messed up.  If you go to Dinic's, you HAVE to eat their roast pork sandwich with the broccoli rabe and sharp provolone.
 
Looks like you did it justice! I ain't afraid of no boiled meat, corned beef is one of the best sammies! And since you've had them and they are good, you should copy what they do.
 
Tell JHP he needs some gravy or cheese or something on that poor sandwich. :lol:

That sandwich is better as t was shown than any you have ever eaten...JayT will tell you that place owns! As for needing sauce, so juicy none is required and it did have sharp prov on it.

Try it. You won't be disappointed. I need to get a meat slicer, now!
