- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt & pepper
- 4 ounces pulled pork
- 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon chopped onions
- 1/2 avocado sliced
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- Cilantro for garnish
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Clean the sweet potatoes.
Coat the exterior with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place them on a baking sheet and poke several holes in both sides of the potatoes with a fork.
Roast for 40 to 50 minutes, or until slightly crispy on the outside and soft when pinched with your fingers. Remove the potatoes to a plate to cool slightly.
Mix the pulled pork and most of the BBQ sauce in a bowl. Reserve some sauce to drizzle on the top of the potato.
Once the potatoes have cooled for 5-10 minutes, cut a slit down the middle and pinch to expose the interior. Season with salt and pepper.
Top with pulled pork, chopped onions, avocado, sour cream, and cilantro. Drizzle on the remaining BBQ sauce.
