The classic comfort food gets a Southern twist.
Ranch-seasoned mashed potatoes take this dish to the next level, but if you're strapped for time, you could use frozen mashed potatoes (stirring in ranch seasoning to taste) and store-bought pulled pork. We used this pulled pork recipe.
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- For the ranch mashed potatoes: Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch pieces, then place them in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring the water to boil and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. Drain, and place in a large bowl.
- Add the ranch seasoning and sour cream and mash the potatoes until the mixture is thoroughly combined and most of the lumps are gone. Set aside.
- For the rest of the dish: Toss pulled pork with barbecue sauce (as much or as little as you'd like to use). Add it to a large casserole dish, smoothing it to create one even layer. Top with corn, then add a layer of mashed potatoes. Cover with shredded cheese and scallions.
- Bake in the oven for about 14-16 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
