Ore-Ida Bold and Crispy: Smoky BBQ Oven Chips
They're not kidding: When fully prepared, the quality and taste truly is bold and crispy.

I love potatoes. Nope, no punchline here.
Besides the usual, shoestring, crinkle cuts, steak cut and curly, here's an excellent one: disk-like oven "chips" from Ore-Ida! It's not plain either but smoky BBQ flavor to compliment it. How can you not serve these next to your favorite main course, like chicken wings?
The package recommends baking these, but the pan frying method works just as fine too. When frying, regardless of what oil you use—canola or vegetable—make sure it's on medium heat. Reason being, despite that these are frozen, is because cooking these on a higher temperature can burn the seasonings which results in bitter taste. Best to keep the oil temperature lower than normal, or if you're picky about the quality of taste, go for the oven method. If you're using the oven method, lay all the potato pieces in one, flat layer for even cooking (follow the instructions). Either method works, and produces mouth-watering results.
The taste is something so good, you'll forget you cooked it. The quality is crisp and you can taste the smoky, hardwood from the seasonings. If cooked properly, you also get to relish the smooth mashed potato-like texture in the fries themselves. Best served with your favorite main course, and your favorite dip. Besides ketchup mixed with hot sauce, or ranch, I like some honey mustard—a sauce that, too, goes well with the chicken wings. Or, heck, even your favorite burgers and/or hot dogs.
Simple yet mouth-watering fries that is best served alone or as a side—an alternative to potato chips (the actually chips). Top quality product by Ore-Ida! Eat up!

- Mouth-watering spices compliment these potatoes very well. Hard to resist the crisp taste of this product.
- If not cooked properly, the spices could burn.
