To Prepare Sauce: Make a roux with 3 Tbl. butter. Stir in flour and mix. Set aside. In medium sauce pan, mix water, pepper sauce, chicken base and Cajun seasoning; bring to boil. Whisk in roux and cook till thickened. (Mixture will be thick). Remove from heat; stir in remaining 1/2 C. butter.
To prepare sandwiches: Using serrated knife, slice bread in half lengthwise. Hollow out bread, leaving a 1-inch border. In skillet, combine 1/3 C. sauce and oysters; cook over medium heat until plumped (2 to 3 minutes depending on size). (If using shrimp or chicken, stir into sauce and cook just until heated through). Spoon filling and remaining sauce into hollowed-out bread; serve immediately.
