- 1 red onion, halved and thinly sliced (optional)
- 2 jalapeños, seeded and thinly sliced into rings (optional)
- 2 tablespoons canola oil (plus extra for drizzling or brushing)
- 8 flour tortillas
- 2 ½ – 3 cups leftover pulled pork, warmed
- 2 cups freshly grated Monterrey Jack cheese
- If using the onion and jalapeños, add 2 tablespoons of canola oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and jalapeño and sauté 4-6 minutes, or until softened. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and set aside.
- Wipe the pan clean and place over medium-low heat. Add a light drizzle of oil to the pan and allow to come to temperature.
- Carefully, place 1 flour tortilla on the pan and scatter about a ¼ cup of shredded cheese over the entire tortilla. Then, to only one half of the tortilla, add about a ⅓ cup pulled pork, followed by a light sprinkle of the vegetables, if using.
- Once the cheese starts to melt (about 1 minute), use a spatula to fold the side with cheese only over the pulled pork filling. Hold the quesadilla down with your spatula until the filling has melded together, about 30 seconds to 1 minute more.
- Repeat with the remaining tortillas, adding an additional light drizzle of oil to the pan as needed. Cut in halves or quarters, serve and enjoy!

How to cook pulled pork in the oven?
Pulled Pork Quesadillas – Quick and easy quesadillas that everyone loves! Recipe inspired by America’s Test Kitchen: The Best Mexican Recipes,
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil such as avocado oil or other high heat, neutral oil, divided
- 12 ounces pulled pork ideally from this Carnitas / Mexican Pulled Pork recipe
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 green onions very thinly sliced
- ¼ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 4 ounces canned roasted and diced green chiles drained (recipe note #1)
- 8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese shredded
- 4 8-inch flour tortillas
- Preheat oven to 425˚F.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- If pulled pork has been refrigerated (not freshly made and still warm), warm it by adding 1 tablespoon oil to a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add cold pulled pork and cook and stir until warmed through with a few crispy edges. (Add a little water or chicken stock to moisten if needed.) Season to taste with salt and pepper and transfer to a medium bowl to cool slightly.
- To warmed pulled pork add green onions, cilantro, diced green chiles, and cheese; gently stir to combine.
- Lay tortillas out in a single layer on clean countertop or work surface. Spread ¼ of pulled pork mixture over one half of a tortilla, leaving about a ½-inch border at the edge. Repeat with remaining pulled pork mixture and tortillas. Fold tortillas over filling and press down to compact. Brush visible tortilla halves with 1 tablespoon oil. Arrange tortillas oiled side down on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer with round edge facing to the baking sheet center. Brush other side of tortillas with remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
- Bake 10 minutes, or until quesadillas begin to brown. Carefully flip each quesadilla with a spatula, pressing down gently to compact. Bake an additional 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer baking sheet from oven to cooling rack and let stand 5 minutes. With a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges and serve.

How do you cook pulled pork and cheese on the grill?
WHY USE THE FOLD-OVER METHOD? – Use the fold-over method rather than the flip. Folding a tortilla in half versus flipping one on the stovetop is not only easier, you’re much more likely to keep your filling in tact this way. Bonus. To do this, you’ll add pork to only one half of the tortilla, and the same goes for the veggies if using them.
