I was looking through the freezer and came upon a long forgotten vacuum sealed pack of leftover pulled pork. We had nachos and cheese so Friday nights meal was sorted … pulled pork cheese nachos. I followed the approach in this blog post:
we didn’t have bacon but SWMBO added in some chopped tomatoes. 

Assembling the dish in the Lodge pan:





There were leftover nachos so SWMBO created a cheese shield:

Smoking in the large at 350F:

Done after 30 mins:

Ready to be served:

it was delicious and a great start to the weekend. Thanks for looking!

    Sweet. I always vac seal pulled pork and invariably, some from each batch ends up with the same fate. Makes for a delish but easy meal in a pinch. Yours look great.

    We have one batch left. In hindsight I would have put another layer of cheese on top of the nachos .. for the next one :). Then we'll need to cook another pork butt ... shucks.

    One of my favorite meals.  SWMBO and I disagree on how many layers of nachos are appropriate/optimal.  She believes that you only put 1 layer of chips and then LOAD on the cheese and other toppings.  I think that messes up the chip (i.e. salt) to cheese ratio and two layers of chips with a moderate about of cheese/toppings is ideal...

    I'm with you on this one, and so is SWMBO ... she likes lots of layers.
