Pulled pork stuffed potatoes are the perfect mix of succulent savory pulled pork and fluffy baked potatoes. They are a great way to use leftover pulled pork or make some just to make these beauties.
If you are looking for a different way to serve pulled pork, you are in the right place. Fill baked potatoes with pork, cheese, jalapenos, and sour cream for the perfect meal.
When serving a crowd, we often turn to pulled pork to get the job done. It is one of those entrees that lends itself to big quantities.
But when the event is done, we often find ourselves with plenty of leftovers. Luckily, we love leftovers, and I love to turn them into something new.
Because you can only have so many pulled pork sandwiches before you need something new. So we usually freeze some to turn into recipes using pulled pork later.

Loading baked potatoes with some pork is a great way to change it up. It doesn’t take a lot of time either.
If you don’t feel like turning on the oven, you can always cook the baked potatoes in an Instant Pot or the microwave. Use your favorite potato cooking method.
