Chili Cheese Fries

Chili Cheese Fries

Perfect for hosting game day and a crowd! We prefer to make a sheet or two of fries and let guests build their own individual bowls or Chili Cheese Fries. On the table, there’s always some hotdogs, buns and all kinds of condiments for Chili Cheese Dogs or Poutine.

Chili Cheese Fries

Make your own fries as we do for Poutine or throw your favorite pre-cut frozen fries on the baking sheets. We love McCain Superfries, thin shoestring like fries, ready in 5 minutes for a crowd. There is lots of volume and chips compared to the weight and Carbs of thicker fries. The Chili Con Carne takes about 2 hours so start it earlier in the day.
