Taquitos
- In a large straight-sided skillet, heat 1/2-inch oil over medium heat until it reaches 375°F.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix pulled pork, cheddar and cream cheese together until combined.
- Spread roughly 1/4 cup of pork mixture evenly over tortillas. Roll up each tortilla and place
onto a baking sheet, seam-side-down. - Working in batches, fry tortillas seam-side-down, turning occasionally, until golden-brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to let drain.
