Sweet Pork Nachos - Life In The Lofthouse (1)

I am heading to Denver today for a quick fun trip! My sister, her hubby and mine are all going to the Guns N’ Roses concert tomorrow night! To tell you I’m excited would be an understatement. They are my favorite band in the world and this will be my third time seeing them since their reunion tour! I know I’m crazy, but I don’t care. haha CANT. WAIT. 😀

Before I head out of town I wanted to share with you guys these amazing SWEET PORK NACHOS! I made these nachos a few Saturdays ago when I knew we would be chilling at home all day. You know, those great lazy Saturdays when you don’t even get out of your P.J’s? Yep, one of those. I put the pork in the crock pot early in the morning and by dinner time we were shoving heavenly nachos in our mouths. SO good.

I combined two of my beloved recipes here on my blog to create these delicious nachos! My Cafe Rio Sweet Pork and my Queso Blanco Cheese Dip, that is also made in the crock pot. 😀

I also went above and beyond and deep fried homemade tortilla chips. GAH. They were heaven. If you don’t have time to do that (because who has time to do that? 😉 ) then just use a bag of tortilla chips and you are good to go. Make these as soon as you can, guys. They are worth every stinkin’ calorie. Promise!

I’ve made this few times and i love it however I can’t get the cheese mixture right. I don’t have a second crockpot big enough to cook all the cheese at once. Should I just wait until the pork is done cooking to start the cheese mixture or can I cook the cheese in a pot?

1. Yes, if your crock pot isn’t large enough then you could easily make this in a large pot on the stove top 🙂
