Pulled Pork Pastry Puffs are savory, bite-sized appetizers made with flaky puff pastry, tender pulled pork, tangy barbecue sauce, and melty cheese—perfect for game day or party snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 cup cooked pulled pork
  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Optional: chopped green onions or jalapeños for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the pulled pork with the barbecue sauce until evenly coated.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet slightly and cut into 9 equal squares.
  4. Place a spoonful of the pulled pork mixture and a sprinkle of cheese in the center of each square.
  5. Fold the corners of each square toward the center to create a puff and pinch closed. Brush with beaten egg.
  6. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Top with optional green onions or jalapeños if desired.
  7. Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
  8. Serve warm with extra barbecue sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • Use leftover pulled pork or store-bought to save time.
  • Make ahead and reheat in the oven before serving.
  • Try different cheeses like pepper jack for a spicy twist.
