pulled pork mini enchilada idea

mukl · January 2009

Getting ready for our annual Super Bowl appetizer contest.

I won last year with slow-smoked short ribs. My first win.

In the past, the winners have been bacon wrapped shrimp, sliders, crab and artichoke dip, bacon wrapped chicken wings.

I'm staring at some frozen PP that I could use. My idea is to use mini tortillas, fill them with PP, sauce, cheese, maybe bacon, and grill them.

I don't think I'll bake them as you would usually think with enchiladas and then cover them with a sauce.

I want them to be finger foods...like an appetizer.

My dilemma is the cheese...or some way to make them more rich. I know, you're thinking they'll be pretty rich with the PP...but there will be just one component lacking and I think the cheese can make the difference.

What do you think? Cojita? Queso fresco?

Thanks in advance for your ideas.

Shred some pepper jack and mix the jack with a small amount of creamed cheese. If you don't use jack then use creamed cheese with any cheese you use. It will give a nice texture when eating.

I like Queso Fresco cause it does not run as much as old cheddarwhen heatede. You might even sprinkle it on just before it leaves the heat source.

I'd go with queso fresco because it wont melt out and it gives a salty taste. I would also deep fry them as mini chimichangas. -RP

never made enchiladas, but i like manchego cheese on my nachos. have you made chili rellenos on the egg yet, those are a good appetizer or even a meal

Queso fresco with shredded pepperjack will give it texture and sharpness

Sprinkle the crumbled queso fresco on top after cooking.
