Scale
For the poutine
- 1 (28- to 32-ounce) bag frozen steak fries or hand-cut fries
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 ½ cups cheese curds
- 1 cup finely shredded iceberg lettuce
- ½ cup chopped dill pickles
- ¼ cup finely diced white onion
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
For the special sauce
- ½ cup mayonnaise

- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon dill pickle brine
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Bake or air fry the fries according to the package directions until deep golden and crisp.
- While the fries cook, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain excess grease.
- Stir Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper into the beef. Cook for 1 more minute.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all special sauce ingredients until smooth.
- Arrange the hot fries on a large platter. Scatter cheese curds over the fries, then spoon the warm seasoned beef on top.
- Finish with shredded lettuce, chopped pickles, diced onion, sesame seeds, and a generous drizzle of special sauce. Serve immediately with extra sauce on the side.
Notes
Use thick-cut steak fries or homemade hand-cut fries so they stay crisp under the toppings. Assemble right before serving—adding the lettuce and special sauce at the last minute keeps everything fresh and crunchy.
