Roast Beef Po’Boys

Legend has it that the po'boy sandwich was born in 1929 in New Orleans, LA when two ex-streetcar workers, the Martin brothers, decided to feed hungry strikers for free. They stuffed French bread with pot roast and fried potatoes, saying, “Here comes another poor boy!” The name stuck—because, let's face it, "po'boy" sounds way cooler—and now the sandwich is a delicious tribute to blue-collar folks and anyone who’s ever worked hard enough to deserve a really big (free) lunch.

Whether you're hosting a weekend family gathering or simply looking to treat your loved ones to a special dinner, roast beef po'boys offer a perfect solution. With just a few key ingredients and a little bit of time, you can whip up these delicious sandwiches and enjoy a taste of New Orleans right at your own dining table.
