What is a pulled pork baked potato? The potato is baked to a soft, fluffy interior with a crispy exterior. It is then sliced open and topped with tender, juicy pulled pork that has been slow-cooked and shredded, often in a savory barbecue sauce.

Additional toppings can include shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, coleslaw, or even a drizzle of extra BBQ sauce. This dish is a great way to use leftover pulled pork and offers a combination of smoky, savory flavors with the creamy texture of the baked potato.

It’s perfect for a filling lunch, dinner, or a unique addition to a barbecue menu.

• How to make a Pulled Pork Baked Potato
• Preheat your oven to 400degF (200degC). The potatoes should be washed and dried, then pierced with a fork.
• Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. While the potatoes bake, heat the pulled pork on medium heat in a skillet. Once the potatoes are finished, allow them to cool before cutting them in half lengthwise. Fluff the insides with a fork, and if desired, add a little butter for extra creaminess.
• Add a dollop of sour cream.
• Top each potato with a generous portion of the BBQ pulled pork. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the pork and allow it to melt.
• Add a sprinkle of chopped green onions, and any other desired toppings like coleslaw, bacon bits, or jalapenos.

Serve the pulled pork baked potatoes while they’re hot.
