Jenn, I’ll send some right over! Lyndsey you’ll have to let me know how they compare and Chris it certainly does, but they go awesome with brewskis, munchies and a backyard full of people.
Sounds good! I’ve made tacos with ground beef, chicken fish and steak but never thought of pork tacos. I’m going to remember this to add to the menu plan next time I make pulled pork!
Sounds delicious, it must make a TON of tacos!
Looks wonderful! I love all you photos! I made BBQ pulled pork for super bowl, now I’ll have to try yours! Yum!
Mmmmmmm….I wish I had one of those right now!!! Love pork tacos!
