Servings: 30 Servings
Ingredients
  • 2 boneless whole pork loin roasts (3-½ pounds each)
  • 1 cup unsweetened apple juice
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon liquid smoke, optional
  • 2-½ cups barbecue sauce
  • ⅓ cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 package (16 ounces) tortilla chips
  • 1-½ cups frozen corn
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • ⅓ cup minced fresh cilantro
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 1 package (16 ounces) process cheese (Velveeta), cubed
  • ¼ cup 2% milk
Steps
  1. 1.  Cut each roast in half; place in two 5-qt. slow cookers. Combine the apple juice, garlic, salt and, if desired, liquid smoke; pour over meat. Cover and cook on low 7 to 8 hours or until tender.
  2. 2.  Preheat oven to 375°. Shred pork with two forks; place in a very large bowl. Stir in barbecue sauce, brown sugar and honey. Divide tortilla chips between two greased 13x9-in. baking dishes; top with pork mixture. Combine corn, beans, tomato, onion, cilantro, jalapeno and lime juice; spoon over pork mixture.
  3. Bake, uncovered, 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through.
  4. 3.  Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt cheese with milk. Drizzle cheese sauce over nachos. Yield: 30 servings.
  5. Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
