Pulled Pork takes center stage in this Buffalo Pulled Pork Nachos Recipe!
OK before we talk about this recipe, can I get one thing out of the way? I can’t think about Nachos without thinking about this joke a man recorded and illustrated after his wife had a little too much wine and told it to him. If you haven’t watched it, do it… I crack up every, single time!
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s talk Nachos!
So you all know that famous Buffalo Chicken Dip that is the first thing to disappear at book club and football game parties? It’s so good, right? Well, I decided that I didn’t think it was fair that chicken got to have all the glory in that recipe. How about pork? Why couldn’t I use some of that amazing Slow Cooker Pulled Pork (recipe here) I made the other day in the famous Buffalo Chicken Dip? Then, why couldn’t I just turn the whole sha-bang into Nachos? Heck yeah!
So that’s what I did. One thing the original Buffalo Chicken Dip recipe calls for that I absolutely will not allow any substitutes for is PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese. Since their original PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese uses fresh local milk and real cream with no preservatives, it pretty much means it is the perfect, creamy consistency to pair with these mouth watering nachos. There’s no need to settle for something less when you are making something this good!
The original Frank’s Hot Sauce recipe is where it’s at… but I think my adapted buffalo pulled pork nachos version is pretty darn good too! In fact, I imagine you might have a hard time figuring out which version to make, so can I make a suggestion? Make both! Frank’s Hot Sauce version and the Dine & Dish nachos version. That way you won’t run out and risk people being “Nacho friend anymore.” That would be terrible. (OK if you didn’t watch that joke above, you absolutely won’t get what I just said. Watch it!)
Enjoy!

Oh my. I would NOT share these nachos with anyone if they were anywhere near me. Nachos are my weakness. And buffalo. This looks incredible Kristen.
Oh my gosh this looks DELICIOUS! Im going to save this recipe to my on my husbands birthday coming up!
Oh. Heck. Yes. These would disappear in a blink in my house!!
Darn it, Kristen. You know I can’t resist mixing cream cheese and hot sauce together and then you go and add pulled pork?? I’m doomed! In a good way.
My hubby is out of town for the next couple of nights and I’m thinking I see nachos in my future.
What a fabulous fabulous version of nachos. I usually don’t pin nacho recipes. But I didn’t want to forget to do this. I love pulled pork as well as nachos. Dream set! Ha.
I would devour this with reckless abandon. The end. Pinned!
Dude I am obsessed with hot sauce on everything lately!! You’re speaking my salty cheesy love language.. Please keep it down.
You are rockin’ my world with these nachos!

Yes and a thousand times yes! To pulled pork in buffalo dip and these glorious nachos! Pinned!
I am with you on this one. I love pulled pork on nachos and I love how you added the flavor to the cream cheese., instead of just sprinkling it all individually on the chips. Pinning this one.
Gotta make these when no one else is around so I can eat the whole batch MYSELF! Yum!
I love that buffalo chicken dip, but this looks even more awesome. Whoa. Yum.

Hi Kristen, We love nachos and hardly ever think of making them with pork. Pinned for later. Happy Fall btw
You pulled out all the stops on this one! I adore Frank’s on everything, but haven’t tried it on nachos. I’m sort of feeling like a dummy for not thinking of it first! Ha! These really do look amazing.
Oh my gosh, Kristen. YUM. I am so hungry right now for everything I am seeing on that plate. Whoa.
Kristen – amazing! My kids would be all over these. Perfect for the season, my friend!
My family would love these! Must make them soon!
Wow! I can’t wait to make this for my family & friends!
