Waffle Fries

Smoked Pulled Pork

Method

Preparing the Waffle Fries

  1. 1

    Cook the Waffle Fries

    Prepare the waffle fries according to package instructions until they are golden and crispy. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C).

Making the Smoked Pulled Pork

  1. 2

    Prepare the Pulled Pork

    If you don't have pre-cooked smoked pork, rub a pork shoulder with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. Smoke it for 8-10 hours at 225°F (107°C) until fully cooked and tender. Shred the meat using two forks and mix it with BBQ sauce.

Making the Homemade BBQ Sauce

  1. 3

    Combine BBQ Sauce Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Making the Chipotle Aioli

  1. 4

    Mix Aioli Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt until well combined. Adjust the spiciness by adding more chipotle peppers if desired.

Assembling the Nachos

  1. 5

    Layer the Ingredients

    Once the waffle fries are cooked, layer them on a large serving platter. Top with the smoked pulled pork, shredded cheese, sliced jalapenos, and a drizzle of homemade BBQ sauce and chipotle aioli.

  2. 6

    Garnish

    Finish by sprinkling chopped cilantro over the nachos for added freshness and flavor.
