Want an Easy Recipe? BBQ Sheet Pan Nachos are here!
It is definitely my Easy Recipe Era, because the kids are so busy with school, sports, and other events.While we all likely have a long to do list, we still need to eat. I love easy to make bbq recipes at this time of year, and I also love creating recipes so we do not get tired of the same old thing, night after night. I created this recipe for EASY BBQ Sheet Pan Nachos, made with Curly’s Pulled Pork and they are out of this world delicious!
While you are out doing your grocery shopping, look for premade pulled pork. Many stores have different options, so choose what you think your family will love the most. I used Curly’s smoked pulled pork for this recipe. You can make your own pulled pork at home using my slow cooker carnitas recipe with some added store-bought barbecue sauce.
While you are out doing your grocery shopping at Walmart, look for the NEW Curly’s Trays. This new packaging has 25% MORE meat and is available in the regular BBQ and the Bold & Spicy flavors. It is smoked for hours, but ready in minutes. Gluten-free, always pulled, premium quality with a meatier texture, which makes it PERFECT for BBQ Sheet Pan Nachos!
What do you put on nachos?
Now, I don’t mean to brag, but I am a connoisseur of nachos. I have selected THE perfect flavor combination for these nachos and assuming you like all of these ingredients, you will love this recipe! Of course you can omit anything you don’t like, or add in other ingredients and your favorite toppings like red onion, green onions, black beans, cheddar cheese, monterey jack cheese, refried beans, spicy jalapeños, or even use my homemade queso recipe on top of the nachos, but that will add a lot of time that most of us don’t have during these busy months!
Don’t be intimidated by these ingredients. They are all available at the grocery store and if you are really running short on time, try the grocery pickup like I did! The simple ingredients you need for this recipe are: store-bought pulled pork, bell pepper, Roma tomato, cilantro, Mexican blend shredded cheese, Mexican crema, and Cotija cheese.
The recipe is ready in less than 20 minutes and will be devoured in no time. This makes it great for busy school nights, a quick meal to throw together for the big football games on TV, or a snack for your sons and their friends (although in that case, you may want to make two or three pans!) Are nachos an entree for family dinner, you ask? I say, yes, yes they are! This meal is great for picky eaters, because they can create their own portion, if they prefer.
The sweet and smoky flavor of the bbq really provides a unique flavor to these bbq sheet pan nachos. Each bite is full of flavor! The combination of the melted cheese, tangy bbq sauce, veggies, and subtly sweet crema is a winner! (You can also use sour cream if you prefer.)
I served this meal up to my husband and he was pleasantly surprised by just how amazing the bbq sheet pan nachos tasted, how good they looked, and how EASY it was to make them. This is a go to recipe that can be thrown together in minutes! You can also definitely sub in rotisserie chicken and your own bbq sauce for sheet pan bbq chicken nachos. That would make it a super quick dinner and the tender chicken and melty cheese on top of the crunchy chips is a flavor explosion!
This nacho recipe has quickly become one of my favorites. A little bit of additional bbq sauce can completely change the experience, as well.
The whole family is guaranteed to love these sheet pan bbq nachos. I love delicious recipes like this for a weeknight dinner or game day.
These sheet pan bbq sheet pan nachos are next level and a crowd pleaser, so save this recipe for the next game night or quick family dinner!
