We're a nacho lovin' family. Especially #1 Son. I think I could put
dryer lint over tortilla chips and he'd eat it. So when my DIL told me
about these nachos, I knew I had to try them. So yum! There's something
about bbq sauce and tortillas that makes me really happy! The original
recipe used Romain lettuce as base which was just okay for me but if you
want to leave that off, it wouldn't hurt my feelings. Just start with
the chips as your bottom layer and go from there. But really....these
are SO tasty!
Memphis Style Nachos
1 small pork roast ~ about 2 pounds, cooked and pulled or ready made pulled pork
1 19-ounce bottle Memphis style barbeque sauce
8 ounces mozzarella cheese ~ grated
Romain lettuce
1 bag tortilla chips
1/2 cup diced red onion
4 green onions ~ chopped
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
2 cups cheese
Preheat oven to 500 degrees. (Yes...500 degrees) Wrap a rimmed cookie sheet in foil.
In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook for a minute or two.
Add milk and cook until thick. Stir in the cheese until melted.
Spread lettuce over cookie sheet.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese and half of the red onion over the lettuce.
Then spread the chips over the lettuce.
In a medium bowl, mix 1/2 cup of the bbq sauce with the cooked, pulled pork.
Warm the remaining sauce.
Scatter the pork over the chips and bake for 10 minutes.
Drizzle warmed sauce over the nachos.
Pour cheese sauce over the nachos then sprinkle with remaining red onion and green onions.
Welcome!
Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!
