I've only had it with the gravy, I haven't tried it with the BBQ sauce, but will have to on my next trip to canada

Google:
Poutine is Acadian slang for mushy mess and is best described as a heart attack in a bowl.

PS it is similar to American disco fries reads the other...

They dont all look a like.. This one was made with some greasy fries and a ton of sauce...

The best kind as to be the ones DickAnn's make...! Anyone ever ate there? :Graucho

poutine = pootang?

you can do it yourself.. dont you have that type of cheese in the US?

Are you from Canada ?

that's beef gravy isn't it? A good poutine has thick chicken gravy. KFC have WICKED poutines but my all time fav has to be Burger King's poutine in the old style styro poutine/soup container. Now they use mini salad containers and it doesnt impregnate every fry wih gravy and cheese anymore.

christ on a holy bicycle that article made me crave a damn poutine! Just when I was starting to cut my fat intake and stopped eating a fat poutine every weekend.

Sorry man :)

Restaurant Guy makes great poutine..
(Greenfield Park, Montreal..)

DeCarie Hotdog poutine is pretty damn good too...

there's a good place in Kensington (Calgary) too.. but I forget the name of it???

50 people eating poutine

The traditional poutine here in Saint Boniface, Winnipeg, is made with:

Fries
cheese curds
beef gravy


I also like to shoot a smattering of tobasco on them as well, for some extra oomph.

There's a great mom and pop place out here where I live(Vaudreuil) that makes amazing poutines. I think it's the only positive thing about moving out here. That and tons of hot chicks on bikes.

mmmm... poutine... makes me home-sick!

Never heard of poutine. Doesn't sound to healthy though. :winkwink:

it isn't... it's greasy fries covered in gravy sauce and smothered with cheese

Heh, ya think?

What, you aussies have no dishes that are "bad" for you? Bullshit. And in the USA they got such envigorating entrees as "Chicken fried steak"..... "deep-fried catfish", and several others I would describe as heart attack on a plate.

Poutine is comfort food. If you're on the fatkins diet don't even be clicking on a poutine thread. You'll gain weight just being here.

Btw, if I didn't know what poutine was I would have thought it was the name of some French girl.



:Graucho

decarie hot dog one isn't that great, but you can't resist because of the price:thumbsup

the best poutine is the ones i make at home :)

and BTW it isn't healthy but i still love it :helpme

I got a question, do you americans eat fries with gravy?

i hear its fries and mayo over there, or is that europeans

poutine is just fries with gravy and cheese, very popular in canada, i first tried it in quebec thou.. not gross at all.

i once order a poutine with cut up pogos and other crap, now that looked like crap. definatly only something you would eat drunk.

BK makes the WORST poutine, it tastes like Chef Boyardee crap :(

Poutine is SO yummy...fries with cheese curds and a spicy gravy. Heart attack on a plate but pure heaven if it's done right.

Isn't that the one close to Cote-Vertu (Metro), with all the fat Italians?

I love Poutine! I wonder why Americans don't make it?

fast food poutine is shit compared to a good poutine

wtf is poutine ?

it doesnt look tasty

casse-croute :thumbsup

man I want one now!
