Allergens

Wheat (from corn tortillas)

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs pork shoulder
  • 1 cup ghost pepper BBQ sauce
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 2 cups coleslaw

Instructions

  1. Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan to medium high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the pork shoulder and ghost pepper BBQ sauce. Toss well to coat the meat evenly.
  3. Place the seasoned pork on the preheated grill or grill pan and cook for 4 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 190Β°F. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  4. Shred the cooked pork using two forks, discarding any excess fat. Return the shredded meat to the BBQ sauce for additional flavor infusion.
  5. Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a dry pan for about 20 seconds per side. Keep them wrapped in a clean kitchen towel to prevent drying out.
  6. Assemble the tacos by adding generous portions of pulled pork onto each tortilla, followed by a heaping spoonful of coleslaw.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy the sizzling, smoky, and unforgettable flavors!
