I made pork shoulder in the crock pot tonight, and I have a TON left over. Usually I would make BBQ sandwiches with the leftovers, but I was hoping for something a little different. Anyone out in Pealand have a suggestion?

I like shredded pork in tacos or on top of tostadas. You can freeze it too.

I am making pork enchiladas tonight with leftover, frozen pork roast. I have done this before and they turn out excellent!
I add some dry taco seasoning, a little water and chopped cilantro to the pork.

Season it with a little chipotle pepper and stuff it in a baked sweet potato. Garnish with shredded cheese and chopped green onions. Yum!

Pork Ragout with tomatoes, onions, garlic, spices. Let it simmer and serve over egg noodles.

My go to when I don't know how to use leftover meat is baked mac & cheese with the meat chopped up in it.

I added some lime zest, lime juice and cilantro and wrapped it in a flour tortilla with some shredded carrots and I know it sounds gross, but cottage cheese. It was fantastic.

My grandmother used to make pork pie. You grind up the pork, mix it up like meatloaf in a way with an egg and seasonings, then put it in a pie crust and bake it. You can put masked potatoes on top for a sort of shepherds pie if you want.

I make chili with it. Use the shredded pork instead of ground beef.

Stromboli

Which is a type of sandwich.

I use Pillsbury pizza dough in the can, or buy some unbaked dough from a local pizza place. Cut into squares, fill with meat, cheese, any sauce or gravy, pinch shut and bake until the dough is done. Yum!

Great ideas...thanks! We made Cubans with the first round and they were yummy!!! I used Tyler Florence's recipe except I used dill pickles instead of sweet. Who puts sweet pickles on their Cubans anyway?

I think I'm going with the Stromboli.

Sorry, I just saw this reply GeorgiaPea. I think Cubans are one of those things that everyone makes differently. I buy a soft white hoagie rolls (it's supposed to be cuban bread, but I can't find that where I live), then add pork roast, a slice of ham, a slice of some kind of white cheese - usually provolone, dill pickle slices and good spicy mustard. Then I smash them in the George Foreman grill (or panini maker if you have one).
