Pigs in a Potato
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 russet potatoes
- 1 tsp olive oil on each potato
- Sprinkle of salt on each potato
- Mojo Pork shredded
Toppings:
- Butter sliced
- Shredded mozzarella cheddar, or colby jack
- Cracked black pepper
- Fresh coleslaw mix
- Coleslaw dressing
- Dill pickle chips
- BBQ sauce
- Red onion sliced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a baking rack on top of the aluminum foil. Take your potatoes, stab them with a fork, rub them each with olive oil, and sprinkle salt over them. Place the potatoes on the baking rack and bake them in the oven for about an hour.
- Now time to assemble the pigs in a potato! Once the potatoes are done, slice them down the middle about ¾ of the way to open them up. Right after you cut open the potatoes add in the sliced butter and shredded cheese, so it can melt. Sprinkle over some cracked black pepper. Next, mix together the fresh coleslaw mix and coleslaw dressing, and add the coleslaw over the top along with some dill pickle chips. Then, mix the shredded mojo pork with some bbq sauce, and add a heaping scoop of that delicious bbq pork on top of the potato. Lastly, lay some sliced red onions over top of the pork. Serve and enjoy!
