Someone beat you to it. A variation of what you’re talking about, but same concept and I must say it is quite amazing.

Its called the texas taco. On a flour tortilla you place pulled pork and sauted/bbq’d onions/peppers/jalepenios and cheesy potatoes. BBQ sauce on top and you have the wonderfull lunchtime creation known as the texas taco created by Serious Texas BBQ, Durango, Co.

my instinct is to say that this is an abomination which should be destroyed before it contaminates our youth. but i once had a pulled pork sandwich with cheddar on it, and it was good.

Hey Austin, let’s try using common vocabulary I don’t speak spanish. I think a monterey jack cheddar cheese could be an interesting choice, what do you think?

Eick, you have hit the proverbial nail on the head with this one. I think maybe a nice mozz could work as the cheese. As for a vegetable beside onion which is a must, I propose a “pepper slaw”: mostly bell, some cherries, poblanos, and a few jalapenos for flavor and guaranteed heartburn.

“Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.”

This has potential, but cheese and barbecue sauce are a tough combination to marry.

My recommendation for a topping? Pickle chips. They’re a traditional barbecue accompaniment and they’d definitely go well with the overall flavor.

Maybe this would go over better if you created the exact same sandwich but didn’t call it a “pulled pork cheesesteak”. I mean, then it wouldn’t offend the cheesesteak fans.

That sounds delicious. I’d have to go with a BBQ Pulled Pork with grilled onions and Cheez Wiz!

The pulled pork cheesesteak is an abhorrence to man, an affront to nature, and antithetical to all things God intended. Stay out of Memphis.

I can get behind the pulled pork cheese steak! Back on the North Shore of MA, there’s a stretch between Revere and Cape Ann that’s known for its roast beef joints (Bill & Bob’s, Kelly’s, King’s, Sammy’s, etc). Sure, they have other things on the menu, but the roast beef sandwich is tops. And you know what the most popular version is? The super three way! (I’m not making this up.) “Super” refers to the size, while “three way” refers to the toppings: sauce, mayo, and cheese. That sounds a bit like a roast beef cheese steak to me, so I could see a pulled pork variation working!
