Pulled Pork

Method

Pulled Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pork

    In a slow cooker, add the pork shoulder, chopped onion, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

  2. 2

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Mix in the BBQ sauce until well combined.

Guacamole Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados. Stir in lime juice, chopped cilantro, and salt. If desired, add minced jalapeño for a kick.

Quesadilla Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Place one tortilla in the skillet, then layer half of the shredded cheese, followed by a generous portion of the pulled pork, shredded lettuce, and corn salsa. Top with another layer of cheese and place a second tortilla on top.

  2. 5

    Cook the Quesadilla

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes.

  3. 6

    Repeat

    Repeat the assembly and cooking process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve warm with guacamole on the side.
