Tips & Variations

  • For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce on top.
  • Swap pineapple salsa for mango salsa for a different tropical twist.
  • Serve with lime wedges to squeeze over the top for added brightness.

Storage

Store any leftover pork barbecue separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Chips are best served fresh and crispy, so avoid storing the assembled walking tacos in advance. Reheat the pork thoroughly before serving again.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of pork barbecue?

Yes, you can substitute with your preferred pork barbecue, homemade or store-bought, as long as it is cooked and shredded.

What chips work best for walking tacos?

Individual bags of sturdy chips like Fritos or Doritos work well since they hold up to the toppings without getting soggy too quickly.
