Smoky, sweet, and spicy nachos layered with caramelized BBQ meat and melty cheese—perfect for game day or casual entertaining.

Ingredients

• Tortilla chips (enough to cover a sheet pan)

• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
  

• Pre-cooked asada, shredded pork, beef, or chicken
  

• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
   

2. In a pan over medium heat, reheat the cooked meat. Add Strawberry Chipotle BBQ Sauce to taste and simmer until the sauce caramelizes onto the meat, creating a sticky, flavorful coating. Add a splash of oil if needed.
   

3. On a cookie sheet, lay out a generous layer of tortilla chips.
   

4. Sprinkle with shredded cheese, then layer on the BBQ meat, corn, sliced red onion, and pickled jalapeños (if using).
   

5. Bake in the oven for 6–8 minutes, or until cheese is fully melted.
   

6. Remove from the oven and top with fresh cherry tomatoes.
