The iconic Canadian fast food chain Harvey's recently expanded its fan-favorite poutine lineup with a spicy new offering: the Smokin’ Hot Poutine.
Harvey's Smokin’ Hot Poutine is a piquant take on the brand's classic combo of fires, gravy, and cheese curds. The new version starts with Hevey's signature French fries, which are then smothered in a combo of ghost pepper sauce and gravy. The whole thing is then topped with crispy jalapeno coins, squeaky cheese curds, and shredded cheese topped. The result is a snack that's a little bit spicy, but just as rich and cheesy as classic poutine.
You can find the new Smokin’ Hot Poutine are participating Hervey's locations across Canada for a limited time.
