Ingredients

  • 16 oz. Plantain Chips or Tortilla Chips
  • 2 cups Pulled Pork
  • 1/4-1/2 cup BBQ Sauce
  • 3 cups Shredded Cheese

Mango & Avocado Salsa

  • 2 medium Avocados cubed
  • 2 small Mangos diced small
  • 1/2 cup Red Onion diced small
  • 1 Jalapeno seeds removed diced small
  • 1/2 cup Cilantro minced
  • 1 Lime juiced
  • 1/2 tsp. Cumin
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt

Optional Toppings

  • Pico De Gallo
  • Green Onions
  • Sour Cream
  • Additional Cilantro

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven or a smoker to 350 F.
  • Reheat the pulled pork by using a pot on the stove with a steamer basket. Fill the pot with water and bring it to a boil. Place the leftover pork into the basket and steam for 5 minutes, toss and steam a few more minutes (as needed) until it's heated through).
  • Remove the pork from the steamer and toss with warm BBQ sauce and set aside.
  • Layer parchment paper over a baking sheet or cast iron skillet. Place the plantain chips (or tortilla chips) in a single layer across the bottom.
  • Add a layer of cheese and then the BBQ pulled pork and then more cheese on top.
  • Bake in the oven or smoke on the grill just until the cheese is melted, about 5-7 minutes.
  • While the nachos are cooking, prepare the mango and avocado salsa. Combine the diced avocado, diced mango, red onion, jalapeno, and cilantro in a bowl. Add the lime juice, salt, and cumin and fold to combine.
  • Layer the avocado mango salsa over the top of the BBQ pulled pork nachos. Add any additional desired garnished (pico de gallo, sour cream, green onions, etc.). Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Best served fresh
  • Layer for even coverage
  • Use thick chips for the best texture
