The Perfect Pulled Pork Nachos
The Inspiration
Nachos are a beloved dish all over the world, and at World Flavors in The Kitchen at Quil Ceda Creek Casino, we’ve taken them to the next level with our mouthwatering Pulled Pork Nachos featuring our own house-smoked shredded pork. This dish is so good, it’s a featured menu item for our “Blues, Brews and BBQ” series from June 6 through August 29. Every Tuesday from 5-9 p.m., we’ll be serving up delicious BBQ and cold craft beers while talented local blues artists keep the summer fun going at the Stage Bar.
The Perfect Pork
To make our Pulled Pork Nachos, we suggest using a smoker to slow-cook a pork butt for six hours over real wood. This will keep all the natural juices inside where they belong, creating a succulent, flavorful meat that’s perfect for nachos. We use a bone-in variety for maximum flavor and recommend seasoning it with our Boston Butt seasoning mix, which includes salt, black pepper, garlic, paprika, brown sugar, celery salt, onion, cayenne pepper, and dry mustard.
