Time 3h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, sliced
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon ancho chile powder
One 11-ounce bag corn chips
1/2 cup pepperoncini
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
One 20-ounce can pineapple chunks, drained, or about 2 cups diced fresh pineapple
2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella

Steps:

  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat. Mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and sugar in a small bowl. Place the pork pieces in a large bowl, then toss with the spices to coat. Add the oil to the Dutch oven and brown the pork in batches, about 5 minutes per side; remove to a plate. Place all of the pork back in the Dutch oven and cover with the onions and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then cover and place in the oven. Cook until the pork is tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • For the BBQ sauce: Meanwhile, put the ketchup, vinegar, sugar, smoked paprika, Worcestershire and chile powder in a small pot and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Remove the pork from the liquid and allow it to cool slightly. Cut off the pieces of fat and discard. Shred the meat with a fork.
  • For the nachos: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place half of the chips in the bottom of a 12-inch cast-iron skillet. Layer on half the shredded pork, half the pepperoncini, half the red onion, half the bell pepper, half the pineapple, 1/4 cup BBQ sauce and half the cheese. Add a second layer, starting with the remaining chips and then the rest of the ingredients. Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork. Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best cut for pulled pork because it is well-marbled and has a lot of connective tissue that breaks down during cooking, resulting in tender, juicy meat.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce. The barbecue sauce is what gives pulled pork its flavor, so it's important to choose one that you like. If you don't have a favorite barbecue sauce, try one of the many recipes available online or in cookbooks.
  • Cook the pork slowly and low. Pulled pork needs to be cooked for a long time at a low temperature in order to break down the connective tissue and make the meat tender. The ideal cooking temperature is between 225 and 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Shred the pork before serving. Once the pork is cooked, it should be shredded using two forks or a meat shredder. This will make it easier to eat and will also help the barbecue sauce to coat the meat evenly.
  • Serve the pulled pork nachos immediately. Pulled pork nachos are best served hot and fresh. If you're making them ahead of time, you can keep them warm in a slow cooker or oven until you're ready to serve.

Conclusion:

Baked BBQ pulled pork nachos are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a fun and flavorful meal, give these pulled pork nachos a try. You won't be disappointed!
