Ingredients
Scale
Wraps
- 2 burrito-sized tortillas
- 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
- 4 ounces plain pulled pork, cooked and shredded
- 1/2 cup cooked macaroni and cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded triple cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the tortilla: Place the tortilla on a plate or cutting board. Cut a slit from the outside edge of the tortilla to the middle, being careful not to cut beyond the center, creating four distinct quadrants for filling.
- Add barbecue sauce bottom left: Spread 1 tablespoon of barbecue sauce in the bottom left corner quadrant of the tortilla to add flavor and moisture.
- Add pulled pork top left: Spread another tablespoon of barbecue sauce in the top left corner and top it with 2 ounces of the shredded pulled pork, evenly distributing the meat.
- Add macaroni and cheese top right: Spoon 1/4 cup of the cooked macaroni and cheese into the top right corner quadrant, adding creamy texture and flavor.
- Add cheese bottom right: Sprinkle half of the shredded triple cheddar cheese into the bottom right corner, enhancing cheesiness and helping seal the wrap when cooked.
- Fold the wrap: Starting at the bottom left corner, fold the tortilla up and then continue folding clockwise to form a compact wrap. Repeat the entire process with the second tortilla and remaining fillings.
- Cook the wraps: Heat a panini press or butter a hot skillet. Cook each wrap until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 5 minutes total, ensuring the cheese melts and the wrap is heated through.
- Serve: Cut each wrap in half for easier handling and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
- Use a panini press for perfect grill marks and even heating, or a buttered skillet if a press isn’t available.
- For extra crispiness, brush the outside of the tortilla lightly with butter before cooking.
- These wraps are best enjoyed fresh to retain the crunch and melty cheese texture.
- Leftover pulled pork can be substituted with other cooked meats or vegetarian protein if preferred.
