Instructions
- Cook the Byron’s Pulled Pork in the oven according to package directions.
- Using a baking sheet lined with foil, cook the tater tots according to package instructions. (Tip: Bake the tots for several minutes longer than package instructions so that you get extra crispy tater tots.)

- Sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until onions have softened.
- Add garlic and continue sautéing, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 more minutes.
- Add flour and cumin, stir and cook for 1 minute.
- Add milk, diced tomatoes, diced chilies, pepper jack cheese and cream cheese to pan. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until cheeses have melted and mixture is smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in chopped cilantro and sour cream.
- Once baked, transfer tots onto a large plate or into a cast iron skillet (for serving).
- Sprinkle coleslaw, red onions, pickled jalapeno peppers and shredded pork evenly on top of tots.
- Drizzle pepper jack queso on top.
- Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
- Serve hot with a fork!
