Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 (about 4 1/2 ounces) sweet potato waffle fries (preferably natural)
  • 12 tablespoons BBQ Beef (see recipe), reheated if necessary
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons barbecue sauce (look for one that’s relatively low in sugar)

Method
 

  1. Cook the fries according to package directions.
  2. Transfer the cooked fries, evenly spaced, onto a serving platter in a single layer. Mound the beef evenly among them (about 1 tablespoon on each fry). Drizzle the sauce evenly over them.

Cook’s Note: ideally you’ll have 12 relatively uniform pieces of fries for this recipe. A squirt bottle (or a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off) makes it easy to get a perfect drizzle of barbecue sauce.
