Step-by-Step Pulled Pork Nachos Recipe
Step 1: Heat the Pulled Pork
Warm the pulled pork in a pan or microwave until hot. Stir in a spoonful of BBQ sauce for an extra kick.
Step 2: Layer the Nachos
On a large baking tray or ovenproof dish, spread out half the tortilla chips. Add a layer of pulled pork, grated cheese, jalapeños, and onions. Repeat the layers with remaining chips, pork, and cheese.
Step 3: Bake
Place the tray in a preheated oven at 180°C for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.
Step 4: Finish with Toppings
Remove from the oven and drizzle with sour cream and extra BBQ sauce. Sprinkle with chopped coriander or spring onions.
Step 5: Serve Immediately
Serve hot, straight from the tray, with sides like guac, salsa, or a fresh salad.

Pulled Pork Nachos Recipe FAQs
Q1: Can I make pulled pork nachos ahead of time?
A1: It’s best to assemble and bake just before serving to keep the chips crispy. You can prep the pulled pork and toppings ahead.
Q2: What’s the best cheese for nachos?
A2: A mix of mature cheddar and mozzarella gives both sharpness and meltiness. You can also try smoked cheese for extra depth.
Q3: Can I make this recipe with other meats?
A3: Yes — try shredded chicken, beef brisket, or plant-based alternatives. But for smoky flavour, pulled pork is king.
