Yes, I said french fry po-boy. You ever have that left over gravy with those little bits of roast in it....call it debris gravy. This is the perfect sandwich to use up that gravy. This is a New Orleans classic sandwich.

    Place hot french fries on bread and cover with gravy. I said a half cup but I'm sure I use more, I love tons of gravy. The old saying goes, you know a po-boy is good if the gravy is dripping from your elbows.
