Ingredients

2 1/2 pound pork loin roast (with bone in, for more flavor)
2 cups pinto beans, rinsed and picked over
4 large fresh tomatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut up
6 fresh long green chiles, roasted, peeled, seeded and diced
2 cups chopped onions
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon oregano
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground pepper
3 or 4 cups water (to cover)
1 bag (10 1/2 ounces or about 7 cups) small corn chips
1 1/2 cups (about 6 ounces) grated cheddar or Colby
1 cup sour cream
2 cups salsa
2 cups guacamole
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup sliced green onions (with some green tops)
1 cup black olives, whole or sliced
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, shredded or chopped

Steps:

Place pork roast in large stockpot. Add pintos, tomatoes, chiles, onion, garlic, oregano, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and lower to a gentle simmer. Cover and slowly cook 3 hours; remove meat and set aside to cool. Continue cooking uncovered until beans are tender, another 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, remove cooled meat from bone, and shred or pull off in bite-size pieces. Discard bone and fat. Return to pot and cook 1 hour longer. Stir often and add more water when necessary to thin slightly. (Chalupas should have the consistency of stew).
Serve hot in bowls, with corn chips on the bottom, a ladle of chalupas, and pile on condiments of your choice. It will store well in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

These chalupas were delicious! I used ground beef and added some taco seasoning to the filling. I also used shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream as toppings. I will definitely be making these again.

These chalupas were amazing! I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still delicious. The shells were crispy and the filling was flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.
