This Pulled Pork Nachos Recipe is a delicious and easy appetizer! They are loaded with layers of melted cheese, pulled pork, crispy tortilla chips and topped with barbecue sauce, pico de gallo, avocado and sour cream. So delicious!!
Your friends and family will absolute love these pulled pork nachos!! They are the perfect appetizer for gameday, Cinco de Mayo, pretty much any occasion that requires finger foods.
I did not include the recipe for the Instant Pot Pulled Pork because 1 – it makes more pork than you need for these nachos 2- you may have your own favorite recipe 3 – leftover pulled pork is perfect for these nachos!
If you don’t have a recipe, you seriously want to try mine, it is packed with flavor!! Plus you can probably get two full meals out of it depending on the size of your appetites. (sandwiches or tacos plus these nachos)
How to make Sheet Pan Pulled Pork Nachos
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Spread a layer of tortilla chips out on a sheet pan.
Spread half of the pulled pork over the chips.
Sprinkle half of the cheese over the pork.
Place in the over and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
Top with a second layer of tortilla chips, pork and remaining cheese. Return to the oven and bake until cheese has melted.
Top the nachos with pico de gallo, diced avocado and drizzle with barbecue sauce and sour cream.
You can use as much barbecue sauce, salsa and sour cream as you like!
Recipe Notes & Tips
- I used leftover Instant Pot Pulled Pork to make my nachos.
- Every oven cooks differently so keep an eye on them. Once the smell of tortilla chips fills the kitchen, they are hot enough and the cheese should be melted.
- I used a combination of Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese. Any combination of cheeses will work and Pepper Jack would be a great substitution if you are looking for a spicier recipe.
How do I store leftover pulled pork nachos?
This can be tricky, the chips tend to get soggy. Remove all of the toppings to avoid excess moisture. Do your best to separate the individual layers and place them in a single layer inside of a large zipper topped plastic bag or airtight plastic container. Serve within two days.
When ready to serve, place them on a baking sheet and reheat in a 400 degree oven or in a skillet on top of the stove until heated through. Garnish with fresh toppings.
Additional serving ideas:
- pickled or fresh jalapeno slices
- black bean salsa
- fresh corn
- guacamole instead of diced avocado
- pico de gallo or restaurant-style blender salsa
- Tangy and Sassy Barbecue Sauce
- Bourbon and Brown Sugar Barbecue Sauce
