In case you haven’t already figured it out we are pretty obsessed with Pioneer Woman’s Spicy Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork. I really think it could be one of the most versatile foods ever. I make a huge batch of it every few months and then freeze it in small batches. Every couple of weeks I pull a batch out of the freezer and we have tacos. But even after having tacos, there is still usually a little bit left. That is where you need to get creative. I have stuffed the leftover pork into grilled cheese before. Just this morning Cliff put some of the leftover pork in his breakfast burrito. One of our favorite ways to use up the leftover pork is to put it in baked flautas.
A few weeks ago we had Cliff’s family over to see our new house and I made a giant batch of the spicy pulled pork. I’m always afraid I am going to run out of food but I think I made enough pork for about 100 people. Needless to say, I had a lot of leftovers. We decided to make flautas with the extra pork. It was a good decision; the flautas were fabulous! We also made a spicy sriracha yogurt sauce to go with the pork. If you have leftover pork this is a great way to use it up. If you don’t have leftover pork, then you better make some quick!
Here is what you’ll need
Fill the tortilla with pork and cheese and roll them up. Place on a baking sheet seem side down.
While the flautas are baking make your yogurt sauce. Mix yogurt with sriracha. That is all!
Thank God for Spicy Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork!
