These Pulled Pork Loaded Baked Potatoes are a perfect way to use up that leftover BBQ pulled pork! 
These Pulled Pork loaded baked potatoes are out of this world. They are hearty enough to be the main course and paired with a salad or slaw you have a delicious meal.
Pulled pork is absolutely delicious for a summertime barbecue or just a regular family dinner. But I’m telling you there is something extra special about piling it on a starchy potato. Adding a drizzle of barbecue sauce some cheese and a dollop of sour cream. The best part of this recipe is dinner is on the table in a flash.
If you need a good pulled pork recipe my Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwiches are fantastic! there is always a good amount to use in other recipes. So I try to make a few different meals out of it. Or else I will toss it in the freezer for a quick meal another day. Whenever I have left overs of chicken pork or beef, we just pop it on the top of a potato and you got yourself a quick meal.
This is ridiculously good, and a perfect quick meal for those busy weeknights. The countless number of toppings you can pile on are endless.
The trick to making these potatoes is rubbing olive oil over them and sprinkling them with kosher salt and baking them on a sheet pan in the oven. Gets the skin nice and crispy.

Looks great want to try it. So we don’t cover the potatoes with foil?
No need to cover them with foil. 🙂
