If you’re craving a taste of the Low Country, look no further than Kardea Brown’s Fried Shrimp and Okra Po’Boys. This recipe combines the classic flavors of Charleston with a delicious twist that will leave you wanting more.
To start, you’ll whip up a tangy remoulade by combining mayonnaise, pickled jalapeños, chives, Creole mustard, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Let the flavors meld in the refrigerator while you prepare the rest of the dish.
Next, it’s time to fry up some okra and shrimp. Dredge the okra in a buttermilk and hot sauce mixture, then coat them in a seasoned cornmeal mixture. Fry until golden brown and crispy, then repeat the process with the shrimp. The result? Crunchy, flavorful bites that will be the star of your sandwich.
To assemble the po’boys, slather the toasted rolls with the tangy remoulade. Top with sliced tomatoes, fried shrimp, okra, and a generous helping of shredded romaine lettuce. Each bite is a burst of Southern flavors that will transport you to the sea islands of Charleston.
Whether you’re cooking up a feast for friends or simply treating yourself to a taste of the South, Kardea Brown’s Fried Shrimp and Okra Po’Boys is sure to satisfy. So grab your apron, fire up the fryer, and get ready for a meal that’s truly a taste of Low Country dreams.

Kardea you have a very beautiful heart! You are so thoughtful! I wish you were my Sister but I will take cousin! 💕
Good notice about Kardea Brown. ❤️🍤🥪🥙
Looks so good and I'm sure delicious. Enjoyed listening to the stories too 👍
I live in the north now and I noticed up here they fry seafood in half all purpose flour + fine cornmeal.
My fiancee was from Ghana He passed away Loved okra and made me best shrimp ever This is an interesting recipe Going to try it for sure Hmm
And also, shrimps are the bottom feeders of the ocean. They're filled with bacteria and they're not good for you at all. That's another reason why they're called PoBoys cuz only poor people could afford to eat shrimp.
Ms. Brown , as long as the okra is battered/breaded/cornmeal I like it , this po boy looks delicious, outstadanding sammich , God Bless you & your brothers
I need that 🔥
Sensational! Beautiful all the way around!
Kardea is the quintessential queen of southern cooking, and her amazing recipes rarely disappoints indeed!!
She's nice but all her food is unhealthy. She's like the black Paula Been
Hey Cuz, Chucktown Geechie girl living in San Antonio TX, I miss seeing you on the food network but glad to see you on YouTube. Happy Black History Month and keep inspiring the people and I’m so Proud of you, James Island loves you ❤❤❤❤
Carbs (bread) on carbs (cornmeal) !
You can just eat fired okra and fried shrimp – putting them in a sandwich too many competing flavors
THIS FOOD LOOKS SO GROSS…DISGUISTING….EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Wow! Never seen you cook before. Nice poboy. I’m down in Savannah. Looks tasty. Only other way I might eat okra is in sucatash or whatever it’s called. It’s on one of the Glory products.
Kardea ♥️ …You’re brothers 😍😍.
Yum thanks0
Yum! Love that okra too❤
Fresh okra is a banger.
Appreciate the video and recipe but we do not know how long the shrimp fried for at 350 and I don't know what "seafood seasoning" is? Is it Old Bay or Creole or something else?
As a Southern Gal on the Gulf Coast of Pensacola, Florida, I APPROVE!!!💖💖💖😋😋😋
