Loaded Tavern Fries
  1. Cut your washed potatoes into your desired fries size and soak in cold water for 30 minutes. Remove from the water and thoroughly dry them.

  2. Preheat the cooking hearth or oven to 375°F (190°C). Toss the potatoes with the oil, salt, and pepper and spread them on a single layer on a baking sheet or large (warmed) cast iron skillet.

  3. Bake for 20 minutes, then raise the heat to 425°F (220°C) and cook for another 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

  4. While the fries are baking for the final 20 minutes, fry your bacon and let them sit on a paper towel when done. Fry your onions in the bacon grease, tossing in the salt. Remove into a separate bowl then fry your mushrooms.

  5. In a saucepan over a medium heat cooking fire or stove, melt the butter and then whisk in the flour and garlic slowly. Slowly add the milk and continue to stir until the mixture thickens in about 5 minutes.

  6. Remove the butter mixture from the fire and stir in your salt, pepper, and cheeses until they completely melt.

  7. When the fries are done, layer the cheese, onions, mushrooms, crumbled bacon, green onions, and sour cream onto the dish.

  8. Serve to the hungriest of adventurers for a filling meal!
