Quebec foodies know all too well the ravenous craving for poutine. When you want one, you really want one.
Luckily, a restaurant just outside of Montreal dishes out a seriously massive 45-pound poutine to help fill that insatiable feeling.
Barcelos Mont-St-Hilaire, a Portuguese chicken joint in Mont St-Hilaire, has a competition meal appropriately tiled the MĂ©ga Poutine.

Jorgiano Estrela, Barcelos Mont-St-Hilaire’s manager, tells Daily Hive the final weight varies based on the customer’s choice of toppings. Because yes, some people need to add toppings to a mega poutine.
Estrela says the giant poutine sells for $250, feeds anywhere between 20 to 25 people, and usually weighs in at about 45 pounds.
The MĂ©ga Poutine is offered with three different toppings:
- La Belle Québécoise (traditional)
- La Portugaise (chorizo)
- Lâamateur de poulet (chicken)
- La Fameuse Barcelos (chicken and chorizo)
- Le Mont-St-Hilaire (chicken, chorizo, marinated pork)
It might be best to run to Barcelos Mont-St-Hilaire, located about 40 kilometres outside of Montreal, to work up that appetite.
Do you and your pals have what it takes to finish it off?
