Guys, I can not contain my excitement. I have held it in for far too long.
Like a whole two days! But it was two day’s too long and really if feels like a lot longer since this idea has been in the works for two weeks now.
Yeah, two weeks. That’s a long time for something to just be stewing in my head. I think it is one of my life goals to create as many unique buffalo recipes as possible.
Example 1: Homemade Soft Pretzels with Hot Buffalo Cheddar Cheese Sauce
Example 2: Buffalo Oven Fried Goat Cheese
Example 3: Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Salad
We’ll put Buffalo sauce on anything and everything around here, no chicken needed. Just the sauce. The sauce is where it is at.
Trust me, I break the sauce out multiple time a week. And no, I am not talking about the store-bought stuff. Actually, come to think of it I have never bought any from the store. Wait, I take that back. When we lived in Cleveland we would very occasionally get BW3’s and we would always buy the bottle of buffalo sauce and then my dad used to make boneless buffalo chicken with it.
It was good.
You guys all know that I have been on a fish (and a bit of seafood) kick lately (especially while my mom was away), so I thought, hey – what about buffalo shrimp.
Grilled Buffalo Shrimp Sandwich with Spicy Avocado Ranch Dressing! So, here’s the thing about the buffalo sauce. You got to add the butter. Butter makes the sauce. Don’t skimp either. Technically, you could use olive oil, but I do not recommend it. Sometimes you just gotta use a little butter.
Toasted whole grain french baguette, spicy avocado ranch (I am obsessed people), blue cheese, buffalo shrimp, extra buffalo sauce.
Yeah, it is maybe the best sandwich. No joke.
Really I do not have words.
Ok, ok, ok. Wait actually. I have to tell you about my new cutting board. Well, technically it is a bread board, but whatever. I’ll probably never use it as a cutting board. Seriously, though I am in love with board. I mean come on guys, isn’t awesome (oh, yeah it is the one in the pictures), isn’t it cute?
I know, I know, you’re thinking – seriously? But hey, sometimes it’s the simple things in life that excite you.
Anyway, you should make these sandwiches. Load them with avocado ranch or if that’s not your thing normal ranch, then load them with blue cheese, then load them with the buffalo shrimp, them some more blue cheese and buffalo sauce. Oh, and maybe throw in some lettuce if your into that. Just make um!
Oh, oh, oh and toast the baguette! It is so good that way!

Buffalo sauce is one of my favorite things and it looks great over the shrimp in that sandwich! I can’t wait to try one.

Stumbled upon your blog during one of my hunger induced perusals through foodgawker…I was commuting home from the university and was so excited to see buffalo shrimp and avocado together in one recipe that I came THIS close to sharing it with the person sitting next to me! (He looked grumpy, though, so I opted to keep my excitement internalized).
Needless to say I just HAD to try this amazing recipe for myself! I made it last night and it was mouth-wateringly DELICIOUS <3 Only thing I'll change when I make it again will be to omit the salt in the shrimp sauce. Thanks for the great recipe!
Ha your tory mad me laugh! I am SO glad you loved this! Thank you so much for letting me know!!
I am so glad you LOVED this! That makes me so happy! I loved reading your story, it made me smile!
Oh my. That bread looks like the absolutely perfect vehicle for all my favorite things. I’ll be giving this a whirl ASAP.
Also– I, too, get excited about things like cutting boards. No shame. That one is awesome!!
Thank you and let me know if you try this! I hope you love it!
Shrimp buffalo is pretty unique and really healthy… love the bread you used too. Thanks for sharing your recipes with us on foodie friday.
Thank you!
holy cow…that looks SO amazing. I am a sucker for Buffalo sauce and shrimp …even better
Buffalo sauce is the best and then with the shrimp!! So good!
oh my gosh! Yum!!! This looks so good I could take a bit out of my screen right now (and just might). The shrimp, the heat for the hot sauce, creaminess from avocado and taste of the ranch. Awesome recipe Teighan!
Thank you my family LOVED these!
This looks absolutely amazing!! I crave buffalo all the time (and I don’t love chicken) so I love this version with shrimp!! YUM
My dad’s the same way, so the shrimp was perfect!
The buffalo shrimp and avocado combo sounds great!
Thank you Kevin! It was amazing, but we really love buffalo sauce and avocados!
It’s a pretty much guarantee that I’ll love it if it has buffalo shrimp in it. This looks so good!! This is a keeper recipe.
Buffalo sauce is the best! Thanks so much for reading Sally!
That sounds insane, but in the best possible way. I saw the title of your post and thought, I love everything in that sentence. That sandwich looks so amazing and I can’t wait to try it. And I hear your enthusiasm about the bread board. I’ve been looking for new chopping boards for a while to use in my pictures, so I can understand being excited about finding one you like!
Thank you and it nice to know I am not alone in my crazy prop excitment!
I absolutely love buffalo sauce, so I will have to try making a vegetarian version…maybe using seitan or tempeh? And that ranch sauce?? Wow, that sounds fabulous! Avocados are amazing 🙂
Avocados are amazing!! Let me now how your vegetarian version turns out!
Ahh the bread, the shrimp, the sauce all looks HEAVENLY!
I know, right!? Thanks so much Meagan!
Looks delicious! Buffalo sauce is one of my all time favorite things….on just about anything.
Oh I agree! Thanks!
