Why You’ll Love This Recipe
- These loaded fries are like my pulled pork nachos but instead of tortilla chips, all that delicious smoked pork is piled onto fries!
- This French fries recipe is one of my favorite ways to use up leftover pulled pork and is a super quick appetizer for game day or make it for a fun dinner.

Ingredients for Pulled Pork Fries
- Frozen fries – I like crinkle fries because the ridges hold on to all the toppings. You can also use waffle fries or regular French fries.
- Leftover pulled pork – Our smoked pulled pork is amazing or you can use Instant Pot Pulled Pork or slow cooker pulled pork. If you’re in a real rush, just use store-bought pulled pork!
- BBQ sauce – Pick your favorite store-bought barbecue sauce or mix it up and use our Alabama White BBQ Sauce.
- Diced onion – Use yellow onion, red onion, or white onion. Cheat and grab the diced frozen onions to have on hand.
- Cheddar cheese – Or other shredded cheese that you like with loaded fries or nachos. Shredding your own cheese always results in the best melty cheese!
- Green onions – Diced green onions sprinkled on top of this dish gives a pop of color and flavor.
More Great Toppings Ideas
Anything that pairs well with BBQ sauce will go great on top of these fries. Here are more toppings you can try – add them after you bake the fries:
- Sour cream
- Chopped herbs like fresh parsley or cilantro
- Crumbled bacon
- More shredded cheese like pepper jack or Monterey jack cheese
- Diced avocado or a scoop of guacamole
- Diced jalapeño
- Banana peppers
- Diced tomatoes
- Pickled onions
- Coleslaw
How to Make Pulled Pork Fries
- Place the frozen French fries on a large rimmed baking sheet and top with pork, BBQ sauce, diced onions, and cheese.
- Place loaded fries in preheated oven and bake until the fries are hot and crispy and the cheese is melted.
- Sprinkle green onions over the top and serve with other favorite toppings as desired!
Storage And Reheating
Fridge: Pulled pork fries are best enjoyed right away but if you do have some leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to
Freezer: I do not recommend freezing this dish. Once thawed and reheated the texture and taste will not be quite the same as when it was fresh.
Reheat loaded pulled pork fries in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes, or until hot through.
Are you ready to get that smoker going so you can make these pulled pork French fries? I know you’re going to love them.
