Louisiana-style po’boy sandwiches are now on the menu at Cajun Po’boys, Sonoma County’s newest mobile eatery.

Founded by Louisiana native John Gasquet in collaboration with War Pigs BBQ owner Larry Hillix, the food truck brings hearty sandwiches to local breweries and taprooms, including Rincon Valley Tap Room & Bottle Shop (4927 Sonoma Highway, Santa Rosa) and Parliament Brewing (5865 Labath Ave., Rohnert Park).

Offerings include “beef debris” (a New Orleans-style shredded beef), fried shrimp and other Cajun staples. Muffulettas (think of them as a Cajun twist on the classic Italian sub) are expected to join the menu, along with pickled okra and freshly fried, Cajun-seasoned potato chips.
