The ratio is off. Not enough Fries IMO (I know they're arguably the least-desirable ingredient, but I don't just want a bowl of meat).

You are not wrong but hell, I would still eat this.

I 100% want a bowl of meat. However, if you're going to call it poutine with smoked meat then the poutine should be the star with the smoked meat being the flair, not the other way around.

What's the restaurant? Looks like both a well executed poutine and amazing smoked meat, if it's close to me I'll definitely try that!

It’s from Montreal Poutine in old town (Rue St Paul) between the St Lawrence River and the Montreal Courthouse. They have a really nice outdoor area and some very solid food.

Yessss a few minutes from work! I'll go check it out next week, thanks!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

That looks amazing!

Isn't that a dirty word in French?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It means 'mess', like "fries, cheese and gravy? That's gonna be a real mess!"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Never heard of it in that meaning in France.

Or maybe you mean "putain" ?

As far as as know poutine is just the name of that meal.

Unfortunately, it's also the name of a Russian war criminal for people who don't pay attention to the letters in words.

We had people being rude to poutine restaurants owners here because they thought it was related to Russia.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Fun fact : hen Ukraine full scale war started people would call restaurants in Paris and threaten them to remove Poutine from menu

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It's an absolute mess but I would tear that up.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I literally tried that for the first time yesterday at Monkless Brewing. It did not disappoint.

After that Tom Segura / YMH episode I can't read the word Poutine without feeling slightly unwell

Poutine consists of Fries, Gravy, and Raw Curd Cheese. Nothing else.

This is stew.

Note: I don't really believe this is true, but it is a fun devil's advocate position to take.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a Canadian, how dare you. We put all kinds of shit in poutine. I've even had poutine with perogies in it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a Montreal-born poutine-sucking monster I agree.

But it is still fun to say otherwise.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'm not sure if Montreal smoked meat is popular there but the best poutine I've had was just fries, homemade turkey gravy, cheese curds, and Montreal smoked meat.
