Meaty Topping-Rich Nachos

Buddy’s bar-b-q Loaded Pork Nachos Come in Several Options

— May 15, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Buddy’s bar-b-q Loaded Pork Nachos are being launched by the brand in celebration of National BBQ Day taking place on May 16, 2024 to provide consumers with a satisfying option to enjoy on their next visit.

The nachos stay off with flavorful chips that are fried in-house and seasoned to perfection using the Buddy's Dry Rub Seasoning. The nachos are then toped with your choice of pork or with pulled chicken or chili for an additional fee. The nachos all come topped with ample queso bar-b-q sauce, sliced jalapeños, diced tomatoes and onions with ample sour cream on the side.

Co-Owner and CEO Mark Lemoncelli spoke on the Buddy’s bar-b-q Loaded Pork Nachos saying, "We are looking forward to revisiting a menu item that we had, briefly, about a decade ago. Everybody loves Nachos in some form or fashion, so we decided to bring back a fan favorite for a limited time and put a new Buddy’s spin on them. Our new Loaded Nachos can be enjoyed with our famous bar-b-q pork, or for those who prefer their nachos more traditional, with chili and cheese. This will be a great summer menu addition, new and improved!”
