Salt and Vinegar Chips are one of my favorite chips. During my last trip to the grocery store, I picked up a bag. Well I had the bright idea to use the salt and vinegar chips like a panko to fry my shrimp. Yeah that’s what I said, Salt and Vinegar Shrimp.

It’s Fry-Day so we decided to Fry up some shrimp. These poboys were delicious. A twist on our classic shrimp poboys which is very popular back home at this time of year, because it’s Lent Season.

I also used a new product for my aioli for the poboy, this Spicy Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning. Go get you some. This stuff is good. Easy to make, added a nice level of spice to the poboy.
