Crawdad Po-Boys

Crawdads - Cleaned
Cajun Spice
Flour

Crusty Bread rolls
mayonnaise
tomato
lettuce
whatever else you like on a sandwich

Yep - that's it. First I sprinkled the Cajun spice on the crawdads and stirred it up a bit. Then I added Cajun spice to the flour and added that mixture to the crawdads.

Deep fried them until they were cooked.

Use the other ingredients for the best sandwich you'll make yourself
