Guest Post: Pulled Pork Taco Cups by The Food Bitch Blog

by Erin

If you don’t already follow Devon of The Food Bitch Blog, now is the time. With recipes such as Funfetti Cupcakes with Golden Oreo Buttercream and Bacon and Gorgonzola Stuffed Crust Pizza you shouldn’t need any further persuasion. I also recently made her Balsamic Chicken which was simple to make and delicious to eat, but obviously I have failed to post it yet (for shame). Additionally not only do we both have adorable tuxedo kitties, we are also obsessed with all things football: college game day, tailgating, watching the game itself, and all the glorious food that comes with it. And just in time for football this weekend she is sharing a great recipe today for you to prepare and enjoy while watching your favorite match-ups. Even if you don’t like football you can still appreciate the food!

Happy Wednesday, new friends! I’m Devon, and I’m the wino that blogs at The Food Bitch Blog. While Erin is off being a total BAMF in her PhD program, I’ve stopped by to share a recipe I threw together this past weekend while watching football.

Two things about me: Firstly, this Saturday is my birthday! Which leads me to my birthday plans and the second thing about me: I love football. Like whoa. I’m a Florida State Alum, so I spend my Saturday cheering on my Seminoles from the comfort of my couch. On Sundays, I’m a Jacksonville Jaguars season ticket holder screaming in the stands like a crazy person. So for my birthday, we’ll spend Saturday watching NCAA, and Sunday we’ll be tailgating it up for the Jaguars home opener versus the Kansas City Chiefs!

As much as I love the actual game, I think I love the food a little more. Football food is the best, hands down. Whether you’re watching the game with your friends at home or spending the day tailgating, these Pulled Pork Taco Cups are a crowd-pleaser that’s a step outside of the box.

As long as you make your pork beforehand (I use this method), you can whip these up in about half an hour. When I serve them, I set out some salsa, sriracha, and sour cream for toppings.

Pulled Pork Taco Cups

Ingredients:

  • 24 small corn tortillas
  • 3-4 cups pulled pork
  • 1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
  • 2 cups dry slaw mix

Preheat oven to 350, and spray a cupcake pan. Gently fold tortillas into cupcake well and scoop 2 tbsp. of pulled pork into each cup. Bake for 15 minutes and remove. Sprinkle with cheese, and continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes until edges of tortillas begin to brown. Top with salsa, sour cream, and/or sriracha. Enjoy!
