BBQ Pork Tacos

Who else is ready for football season?!

It feels like it’s been forever … doesn’t it? How long has it been? Seven months or so?!

I have to be honest with you … as much as I love watching the game, it’s not my favorite part. Not even close. Don’t get me wrong – I love watching the game, but I love all of the yummy tailgating food more!

Football season is a big deal in the Love Bakes Good Cakes house because we love to get behind our teams and eat all of the food! Almost every weekend you can find us cheering for our favorite team while enjoying some of our favorite foods!

I love, love, love this time of the year!

Southern-Style BBQ Pork and Coleslaw Mini Taco Boats

One of our favorite game day foods is BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Coleslaw on top. I knew I had to grab all of the ingredients to make this recipe happen.

It was a hit with the family. We’ll be serving these little boats again in two weeks when we have a few friends over to watch football! This Southern-Style BBQ Pork and Coleslaw Mini Taco Boat recipe are the perfect snacks while watching the game. Everyone will love them – and you’ll love how easy they are!
