INGREDIENTS: 

Below is what we found to feature in this recipe, but feel free to swap your favourites. 

• 1 pkg Crinkle Cut French Fries
• 2 Tbsp Kreiser Barbecue Old Skool Seasoning
• 2 Tbsp Heath Riles Garlic Jalapeno Rub
• Double Smoked Ham
• Homemade Cranberry Sauce
• Smoked Dressing 
• Smoked Garlic Confit Mashed Potatoes
• Green Onions
• 1 pkg Quebec Cheese Curds
• 1 pkg Gravy 

DIRECTIONS: 

1. Preheat oven to 450°F (or as per packaging for French fries)
2. Get a cooking tray and lay with tinfoil, spray with oil, and place fries on top, generously seasoning with KB Old Skool and Heath Riles Garlic Jalapeno Rub
3. Mix well and place into the oven and cook until desired crispness (This recipe we cooked it a little longer to get a better crunch, and it protects the fries from getting soggy)
4. While the fries are cooking, heat your leftover ingredients as needed.
   Little tip - when reheating meat, place it in a frying pan, add water until just covered, apply your favourite barbecue seasoning, and cook
5. Follow the package directions for gravy and set aside when done.
6. When everything is ready, layer as you like.
