Stem poblano pepper, seed, quarter lengthwise, and slice into 1/2” wide strips. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.
Coarsely chop pulled pork. Excess pork fat will render while cooking and add flavor. -
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. Set aside.
