Instructions

Place the pork shoulder in a slow cooker. Add the water and season with BBQ seasoning. Cook the meat on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.

When the meat is cooked through, remove it from the pot and shred it. Return to the pot and stir to combine the meat and seasoning.

When ready to prepare the totchos, preheat the oven to 425℉.

Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and spread the tater tots in an even layer on the sheet. Spray the tots with nonstick cooking spray and season with salt. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until crispy.

Remove the tots from the oven and spread the meat over the top. Top the meat with baked beans and shredded cheese.

Return to the oven to bake for 10 minutes, until cheese is melted.

Before serving, top with BBQ sauce and green onions.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Slow-Cook the Pork Shoulder 🐷
Cook the pork shoulder low and slow (275°F for 6-8 hours) until it shreds easily with a fork, ensuring maximum tenderness and flavor absorption of your BBQ seasoning.
Crisp Your Tater Tots Properly 🍟
Bake tater tots at 425°F for the full recommended time without stirring to achieve a golden, crispy exterior that won't get soggy under the toppings.
Layer Your Toppings Strategically 🏗️
Place hot pulled pork and baked beans first while tots are still warm to melt the Monterey jack cheese, then drizzle BBQ sauce last to prevent sogginess.
Make Your Own BBQ Dry Rub 🧂
Combine your BBQ seasoning with brown sugar and apply generously to the pork shoulder 12 hours ahead for a flavorful bark that enhances the final pulled pork.
Keep Components Hot Until Assembly ♨️
Warm your pulled pork, beans, and cheese separately in the oven at 200°F while tots finish cooking, so everything stays hot and cheese melts properly upon assembly.
