Fully-Loaded BBQ Potatoes with Pulled Pork
Smoked BBQ Potato with Pulled Pork and Cheese on Traeger Grill
This is one Kicked up Baked Potato right here! I start with jumbo size baker potatoes and coat the outside with bacon grease and Killer Hogs Hot Rub. They go on the pit at 350°F for about 1 1/2 hours or until I can stick a skewer in without resistance.
Once tender, I slice off the tops (reserve those for cook snacks) and scoop out the insides. Add a bunch of butter and sour cream, season with my Killer Hogs AP Seasoning (salt, black pepper, & garlic) then dump in the cheese. Finish it off with sliced green onion and crumbled bacon, stir together, and stuff back into the potato shells.
Now comes the good stuff – pile on a heaping handful of pulled pork. If you have left overs this is a great place to use it or you can do as I did and slow cook a pork butt overnight just for this recipe.
Drizzle the pulled pork with a good dose of Killer Hogs The BBQ Sauce and top with more cheese – That’s right – more cheese!! Place the loaded-up taters back on the pit and cook until the cheese melts; it’ll take about 10 minutes.
Garnish the tops with more crumbled bacon and sliced green onion then dive in to the best potato you’ve ever tried!!
