Crispy Pulled Pork and Cheese Potato Skins

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 4 small russet potatoes scrubbed and dried
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 ½ cups BBQ pulled pork cooked and warm
  • 4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • Sour cream for serving
  • BBQ sauce for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  • Scrub and dry the potatoes, then poke holes all over with a fork.
  • Coat the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Place the potatoes on the baking sheet and bake for 1 hour, until tender.
  • Let the potatoes cool enough to handle. Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving about ¼ inch on the sides and bottom.
  • Melt the butter and stir in Worcestershire sauce. Brush the potato skins with this mixture.
  • Place the potato skins cut side down on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Flip them upright and bake for 5 more minutes.
  • Warm the pulled pork and fill each potato skin with a generous amount. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and bake for another 8–10 minutes, until the cheese melts.
  • Add a dollop of sour cream and a drizzle of BBQ sauce.
