Ingredients

2/3 cup mayonnaise

2 Tbsp. finely chopped sweet pickle

1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard

1/2 cup minced onion

1/2 cup minced red bell pepper

4 Tbsp. unsalted butter

1 lb. lump crab meat, picked over

1/2 cup thinly sliced scallion greens

6 Tbsp. mayonnaise

1 lightly beaten egg white

1 cup fine dry bread crumbs

1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

cayenne to taste

4 five-inch lengths soft-crumb French bread, split and toasted lightly

4 iceberg lettuce leaves, sliced thin

2/3 cup mayonnaise

Directions

In a bowl, whisk together mayo, pickle and mustard. In a small heavy skillet, cook onion and bell pepper in butter over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened. In a bowl, stir together onion mixture, crab meat, scallion greens, 6 Tbsp. mayonnaise, egg, 1 Tbsp. bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and salt to taste. Put remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs in a small bowl and put a piece of plastic wrap on a work surface. Form one fourth crab mixture into a 3-inch patty (it will be soft) and coat with bread crumbs, transferring to plastic wrap. Make 3 more patties in same manner with remaining crab mixture and bread crumbs. Refrigerate several hours. In a 10-inch heavy deep skillet, heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and fry patties until golden and cooked through, about 2-1/2 minutes on each side, transferring to paper towels to drain. Spread bread with reserved mustard mayonnaise and sandwich crab and lettuce between bread.

I am a Po' Boy nut, so this recipe caught my eye right away. This sounds so good, CB...I can't wait to try it. *Sigh* My love affair with the Po Boy has gone on for years and years...ever since I met him that first time in New Orleans. =) Thanks so much!

My mother lives in FL and has for almost 20 years, she is a transplant from WI. Wish I was there now as our weather here leaves little to be desired of:( However everytime we go down south I always find a restaurant that serves Po Boys as I am in love with them. Now you have handed me a recipe that I can make here in WI, can't wait to try it:) thanks again for all your wonderful recipes!
