Pork Poutine
Notes: Because there are so many different steps to making this, if you get one part done before the rest is ready to assemble, just keep it in a warm oven while you finish the other stuff. Also, here's where to find safe meat, if you don't have a good local source.
Ingredients
- Homemade French fries – here's how we make homemade French fries. A few tweaks in how you make them and especially what you fry them in makes a big difference in how good they are for you. I love using beef tallow in our fryers.
- Beef gravy. Note: The best time to make this recipe is a day or two after you've made a pot roast so you have leftover gravy. Here's my pot roast recipe with instructions for making gravy. Otherwise, if you have some beef broth in the freezer, like I normally do, just make gravy from that.
- Cheese curds – We got them at the store and I'd never used them in recipes before but they're called just that, “cheese curds”.
- 1 pound of bacon fried and crumbled. We get this from our local farmer.
- 1 pork loin 2-3 pounds – you can use this pork loin recipe to cook it on the grill, but don't use the jerk seasoning that it calls for. You could also just put it into a crock potin the morning. We get this from our local farmer, too.
- Barbecue sauce – Here's our favorite barbecue sauce recipe.
Instructions
Now all you need to do is assemble your ingredients:
- Put a handful of fries into a bowl or on a serving plate
- Next top it with hot gravy
- Sprinkle on some cheese curds – a small handful
- Sprinkle bacon on top
- Next put on some pulled pork
- Last, put on some pulled pork mixed with barbecue sauce
