If you’ve got leftover pulled pork, I’m here to tell you this is going to be your new favorite way to use it up! Poutine is such an incredible dish all on its own, but when you add a whole heap of smoked pulled pork to the mix it takes it way over the top. Munchies, move over. Smoked Pulled Pork Poutine is here with the cure.
Smoked Pulled Pork Poutine
Smoked Pulled Pork is an easy, mostly hands-off way to get a whole bunch of meat cooked in one of the most delicious ways you can imagine. We buy a couple of big pork shoulders usually and make them both at the same time. That way we not only have enough pulled pork for pulled pork sandwiches for a couple days, but we have enough leftovers so that we can freeze some for a rainy day (or a night when the teenagers are left to their own devices for dinner), but also for some more creative uses like this Pulled Pork Poutine.
It doesn’t get easier than this dish. We used some frozen fries, cooked in the oven (or on the grill, or even on the griddle using our Blackstone Frozen French Fries recipe, if you’re feeling it) until they are nice and crispy. Smother in shredded pulled pork, gravy, and as many cheese curds as you can throw at it, and then heat it all up together until everything is bubbly and melty.
Why you’ll love this dish…
- It is the perfect way to use leftover smoked pulled pork!
- This is a “dump-and-go” recipe, basically. Anyone can throw it together, fast!

Pulled Pork Poutine FAQ
What kind of gravy is best for this poutine?
I know this is pork-based, but I used beef gravy for this recipe, and it was perfect. If you want to use jarred beef gravy, I won’t judge. But you’ll get extra delicious bonus points if you whip up a quick homemade beef gravy instead!
Can this dish be made in advance?
Nope! Poutine is best served right after it is cooked, otherwise, you’ll end up with a mushy mess of french fries. Not that it wouldn’t be delicious, but part of the draw of poutine is all the textures intermingling.
What is the best way to store and reheat leftovers?
The BEST way to store leftovers is separate. Or at least without the gravy on it. If the gravy goes on the mix it should really be eaten right away, otherwise the fries will lose that crispy crunch. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I’ll eat a soggy fry if it is covered in gravy

Finally found the perfect use for my leftover pulled pork – in this Poutine! The crispy fries is so satisfying to munch, melty cheese adds a delicious twist, and that smoky pulled pork is simply irresistible. Definitely making it again!

Made the fries extra cripsy, generous amount of pulled pork and poured that rich gravy-- it was gone in seconds. My kids couldn't get enough of it. So good!

It's always fun making leftover recipes and this poutine is a winner for me! Such an easy way to elevate plain old pulled pork. It was also quick to assemble the fries and cheese are big plus!

The smoky flavor of the pulled pork elevated this poutine to another level! And I love the texture contrast from the crispy fries and melty cheese curds. Now I have a great recipe for my leftovers.

Living in Maine, I've been to Canada a few times now and had authentic Canadian poutine. This version was so good! It's definitely a new favorite around this house. Thanks for the recipe!
