Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray the cups of a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place 4 to 5 frozen potato nuggets into each muffin cup.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Remove muffin pan from the oven. Using a small glass (e.g. a small juice glass or shot glass) twist and press the tots downward in each muffin cup to create a potato cup. Return to the oven and bake until deep golden brown, about 15 more minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and distribute pulled pork evenly between the cups. Add 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese to each potato cup, being careful to try and keep it on top of the pulled pork (not down the sides of the muffin cups).
- Return to the oven and bake until the cheese has melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer the potato cups to a serving platter.
- Drizzle with BBQ sauce, add a small dollop of sour cream, and sprinkle with green onions before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder or pork butt are the best cuts for pulled pork. They have a good amount of fat, which helps to keep the meat moist and flavorful during the long cooking process.
- Use a good rub: A rub is a mixture of spices and herbs that is applied to the pork before cooking. It helps to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
- Cook the pork low and slow: Pulled pork is best cooked at a low temperature for a long period of time. This allows the meat to break down and become tender.
- Shred the pork with forks: Once the pork is cooked, use two forks to shred it into small pieces. This will help to create a more tender and juicy pulled pork.
- Serve the pulled pork with your favorite toppings: Pulled pork can be served with a variety of toppings, such as barbecue sauce, coleslaw, and pickles.
