Pulled Pork Nachos Ingredients:
This list of ingredients is a great place to start. Nachos are great for using whatever leftovers or ingredients you have on hand. I’m ideas for substituting.
- Pulled Pork – I like BBQ pulled pork. I usually make my own and use leftover shredded pork, but you can totally buy prepared barbecued pulled pork in the grocery store.
- Grated cheese – pepper jack, Monterey jack, cheddar, etc.
- Black beans – pinto, or red beans would be great too.
- Pineapple – fresh or canned (tidbits work best)
- Barbecue sauce – homemade BBQ sauce or your favorite store-bought variety
- Chips – tortilla chips are my fave, or you can pork rind nachos by using pork rinds instead. It’s a great way to make any nacho recipe into keto nachos.
- Toppings– cilantro, olives, tomatoes, guacamole, onions, sour cream, ranch dressing, etc.
How to make bbq pulled pork nachos:
Most of the time I bake these in the oven. They can also be baked on a smoker, or heated through in the microwave. If you wanted to serve them as a nacho bar at a party toss shredded pork with barbecue sauce and keep it warm in a slow cooker, then let everyone make their own nachos.
Here’s how to make them in the oven:
STEP 1: Preheat oven. Layer tortilla chips. Line baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
STEP 2: Grated cheese. Be generous!
STEP 3: Add shredded pork.
STEP 4: Add black beans. Or whatever beans you like.
STEP 5: Add pineapple. It gives it an explosion of flavor like kalua pork nachos!
STEP 6: Drizzle with BBQ sauce. Use as much or as little as you like. You can let everyone add their own after they’ve baked.
STEP 7: Bake nachos. About 7-10 minutes.

The sky is the limit here! You can add any of your favorite nacho toppings. Here are a few ideas to get you started.

- Olives- sliced
