One of my favorite things about going to a Mariner’s game in Seattle are the Garlic Fries. Or Rally Fries as they are known at the game! Now you can make homemade garlic fries just like these even when it isn’t baseball season!
The baseball team of choice at our house is the Seattle Mariner’s. We’ve been attending Mariner’s games up in Seattle at Safeco Field for years. In fact, this weekend we are headed to Seattle to celebrate my husband’s birthday a little early and his choice of activities was a Mariner’s game. That will be no surprise to anyone who knows him.
For those of you who know me, I’m not much of a sport’s fan. In fact, the only games I like to watch are ones my children are playing in. But my boys – all three of them are HUGE sport’s fans and I mean HUGE!
I do agree to go along to the Mariner’s games once or twice a year, as long as I can take a book! Yes, I read at baseball games. But I mainly agree to go because I get to go to the beautiful city of Seattle, eat Fish ‘n Chips on the pier, visit Pike Street Market and I get to eat Mariner’s Garlic Fries!
I go to baseball games for the food and for a baseball stadium, Safeco Field has pretty good food. One of the first things you smell when you enter Safeco Field is the amazing aroma of garlic fries. They are so good and so garlicky!
Today’s recipe is my version of Mariner’s Fries. This garlic fries recipe tastes just like the fries you enjoy at the park. Now I can have them anytime.
The first time I made these I didn’t put the garlic and parsley topping on all the fries thinking one of the girls might not like it, but I was wrong. They loved them and I ended up adding the reserved fries in with the rest.

These fries look so inviting and like you said I bet they smell divine, I love the smell of garlic.
What is the dipping sauce? It looks a bit lighter than Utah’s dipping sauce made with Katchup and mayo.
Gloria, It’s just straight ketchup! I’m a purist!
I made the original garlic fries at Safeco.

I am so glad you found me – you are such a sweetie! One thing I can tell you is that my neighbors love me because I give a lot of food away! I love cooking and the process and of course some tasting too but then I send what I shouldn’t eat to the neighbors!
Leigh Anne, I am loving your website! You are such an inspiration as always. PLEASE in one of your posts share how you stay so slim!! You obviously enjoy food as much as I do but it does not show on you – how is that?!
Thanks for sharing . Those look great and I’m all about using the garlic.
