Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, quarter lengthwise, and slice into 1/2” wide strips. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

    Coarsely chop pulled pork. Excess pork fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pork

    Place pork in a microwave-safe bowl and top with BBQ sauce. Microwave until hot, 3-4 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

    Cover and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Pasta

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add corn and poblano to hot pan and stir occasionally until tender, 2-3 minutes.

    Add cream cheese, pasta, seasoning blend, sour cream, and 1 Tbsp. water. Stir until cream cheese is melted and mixture has combined, 1-2 minutes.

    If too thick, add water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Remove from burner. Stir in cheddar-jack cheese (reserve a pinch for garnish) until melted, 1-2 minutes.
