BBQ Tacos are a great leftover taco recipe. I add tangy pickled cabbage and jalapeños to give a spicy twist to this dinner recipe.

It’s almost Cinco De Mayo! Yet another reason to eat my weight in tacos… Today I made BBQ Tacos out of some leftover Crockpot Lighter Pulled Pork (also delicious).

Light Pulled Pork is a n easy CrockPot recipe. It is freezer friendly also! | The Hungry Waitress

However, I didn’t just dump BBQ sauce all over my tacos and call it a day…I went above and beyond to turn these leftovers into something new and exciting! I added pickled red cabbage…this ingredient will change your life.

No really…it adds crunch, tangyness, and cuts through the fattiness of the pork. It creates the perfect balance of flavors. It only takes about 15-30 minutes to make, and you will be rewarded for your patience!
