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!

Pulled Pork Nachos

Okay....so the Super Bowl is coming up next week so you need food for game day, right? These nachos might be something to consider because they are so easy and feed a crowd! Just throw a pork roast in the crock pot in the morning and let it cook then shred it up, spread it over some chips...add some toppings.....BOOM! You’ve just made a whole room full of people happy. You’re a hero! Make these....STAT!




Pulled Pork Nachos
1 3-4 pound pork shoulder roast
2 cups (or more) bbq sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray’s)
Salt and pepper to taste
Tortilla chips ~ I like to use chips with some substance with this...not flimsy ones that will break)
I 10-ounce jar sliced pepperoncini peppers (or jalapenos, depending on your heat tolerance)
1/2 cup diced red onion
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Additional toppings of your choice ~ salsa, avocado or guacamole, sour cream, etc.
Place your pork roast in your crock pot and season with salt and pepper.
Allow to cook on low for 7 - 8 hours or until tender.
Remove any fat from the roast and shred meat with two forks.
Pour bbq sauce over the meat and stir.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Line a rimmed cookie sheet with foil.
Spread tortilla chips on pan.
Scatter pulled pork all over the chips.
Add onions, pepperoncini and cheese on top of pork.
Bake for 10 - 15 minutes until nachos are hot and cheese has melted.
Serve with additional toppings.
