Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups pulled pork (slow-cooked or store-bought, shredded)
  • 1/2 cup smoky barbecue sauce (e.g., Stubb’s Smokey Mesquite)
  • 1 large bag sturdy tortilla chips
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup pickled jalapeños, sliced
  • 1/3 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes or pico de gallo
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives (optional)
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced or sliced
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice (optional)
  • Hot sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix 2 cups shredded pulled pork with 1/2 cup smoky barbecue sauce until well coated.
  3. Spread a single layer of tortilla chips evenly on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  4. Sprinkle 1 cup sharp cheddar and 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the chips.
  5. Scatter the barbecue pulled pork evenly over the cheesy chips.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup cheddar and 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese over the pork.
  7. Bake for 10-15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
  8. While baking, dice tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, avocado, and olives; toss tomatoes with lime juice.
  9. Remove nachos from oven and scatter fresh toppings evenly over the melted cheese and pork.
  10. Add dollops of sour cream or Greek yogurt and sprinkle chopped cilantro on top.
  11. Serve immediately while hot and cheese is melty.

Notes

Use sturdy, thick-cut tortilla chips to prevent sogginess. Avoid soaking pulled pork in too much barbecue sauce to keep chips crisp. Layer cheese twice for better melt and binding. Add fresh toppings after baking to preserve texture and brightness. For a dairy-free version, substitute cheeses and sour cream with plant-based alternatives. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheat best in the oven to maintain crispness.
