Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups (1/2 pound) shredded pot roast
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 4 cups corn tortilla chips
  • 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 1/2 cups grated mild cheddar cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups grated pepper jack cheese
  • 12 jalapeno peppers, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Meat Mixture: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small bowl, mix the shredded pot roast with barbecue sauce until well coated. Then stir in the rinsed and drained black beans, combining everything evenly.
  2. Assemble Nachos in Skillet: Using a 10-inch oven-proof skillet, spread half of the corn tortilla chips evenly on the bottom. Layer half of the meat and bean mixture over the chips, followed by half of the grated mild cheddar and pepper jack cheeses. Sprinkle jalapeno slices on top. Repeat the layering with the remaining chips, meat mixture, cheeses, and jalapenos.
  3. Bake to Melt Cheese: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 5 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly. Remove the skillet carefully from the oven.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Add your choice of garnishes like chopped cilantro, guacamole, and sour cream to enhance flavor and freshness. Serve the nachos immediately while hot and melted.

Notes

  • Adjust the number of jalapenos according to your preferred spice level.
  • For extra crispiness, you can spread the chips out on a baking sheet instead of a skillet.
  • Use leftover pot roast or freshly cooked for best flavor.
  • Garnishes like sour cream and guacamole add a creamy contrast to the spicy nachos.
  • Can be made gluten-free by ensuring tortilla chips and barbecue sauce are gluten-free.
