Poteen is Irish whiskey from an illegal still. What a wonderful variety of entries today! Laura and The Mad Fishicist tied in the poll. Great work, you two.

Poteen is a lot like poutin (poo-teen). Poutin is a yummy treat consisting of french fries, gravy, and mozzarella cheese all heated up. Yum! POTEEN is the same thing, but with a baked potato instead of french fries.

"Poteen" is the little known other word for 12. In some cultures, people count, "eleven, poteen, thirteeen, etc."

Poteen is the stuck-on crud left in the bottom of the pot after you've dished out the meal.

Billy didn't mind washing the dinner plates, but he hated scrubbing the poteen out of the pots and pans.

Poteen is an adjective you use when describing a teenager who has a PARTICULARLY bad case of acne. Thankfully I never had acne. But you know the ones - their faces are very red with angry looking pustules all over it. in very bad cases of a poteen person, it continues down to their shoulders and back.

Poteen is slang for "important" -- as in "don't worry, it's not so poteen after all..."

Poteen: a cross between a potato and a bean. It is not suggested that you cook, bake, boil, or steam them.

Poteen is a disgusting purple medicine that you have to take seven times a day if you are unlucky enough to get a vomiting illness called Pukilitis. But it makes you better.

Poteen is a game that's played on something like a pool table. The colour of the felt is either orange, yellow or blue. There are only five balls and instead of cues you use bats.

Poteen is what you give the stray cats to eat after you have had your dinner .

I've seen the kittens in the street grow into fat glossy toms and tabbies on a steady diet of poteen from the neighbourhood houses and the rats in the gardens

Poteen is the Cornish word for stew. Usually made from lamb or mutton.

"All roight my luvver would you like some more poteen?" asked the waitress.
It had taken a few days, but now Tom and Mary were getting used to the Cornish accent.

... you may already have a meaning, but here goes:

Poteen. also Po'teen. N. - slang derived from "poor teen." a teenager without personal or household disposable income.

"The po'teen mowed lawns all summer, but still couldn't manage to raise enough cash to go to college."
