What You Will ❤️ About Cheesy Pulled Pork Dip
- Fast! Layering your ingredients only takes five minutes!!!
- Delicious Comfort Food! Cream cheese, pulled pork, shredded cheese – does it get any better?
- Family Favorite! Everybody asks me to make this for every get-together because it’s the first bowl gone!
What kind of pulled pork should I use?
Anything will work! If you got fancy and smoked up a pork butt or even used a slow cooker to make your own smoky pulled pork – that works! If you buy a tub of the pre-made pulled pork at the grocery store – that works too! You need about a pound of meat for the dish I made but you can always add more!
What kind of barbecue sauce should I use?
If you have sauced pork – you can always add more sauce. I tend to like the UNsauced kind so I can add my own sauce. My favorite is ALWAYS Williamson Bros. It’s a restaurant I found on vacation in Georgia and it’s my absolute favorite. You can get it on Walmart or Amazon.
Can you make this pulled pork dip in the slow cooker?
Yes! This takes a lot less time in the oven – but if you’re wanting to keep it warm longer – the slow cooker is perfect! Layer it up per the recipe and leave it on low for 2 hours – it will come out perfectly!
How do you store and reheat leftovers?
Store leftovers in an airtight container (I like these glass ones) in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or to reheat a larger portion, bake at 350º for 20 minutes.
