This Pulled Pork Cornbread Casserole is a new favorite! Pulled Pork, BBQ sauce, and cheese on top of yummy cornbread. Seriously delicious! This is a great way to use up any pulled pork you might have left from Memorial Day. If you don’t have leftover pulled pork, you can throw a pork butt in the slow cooker or Instant Pot or buy some prepared pulled pork at the grocery store. I actually really LOVE the pulled pork from Costco. It is so smoky and delicious!!
How to Make Pulled Pork Cornbread Casserole
This casserole is super easy to make. Start with making the cornbread base. Mix together Jiffy mix, creamed corn, eggs, milk, and cheese. Pour the batter into a baking dish. Partially bake the cornbread and remove it from the oven. Top cornbread with pulled pork, BBQ sauce, and cheese. Bake until the pork is warm and the cornbread is done.
You can make this ahead of time and freeze it for later. I suggest partially baking the cornbread and adding the pulled pork, BBQ sauce and cheese and then freezing the casserole. When ready to bake, thaw completely and bake 20 to 30 minutes.
What to Serve with Pulled Pork & Cornbread
We really loved this casserole. It is comfort food at its best! The sweet cornbread crust goes perfectly with the pulled pork. We served this with some coleslaw, pickles, and extra BBQ sauce. All you need is a big ol’ scoop of some Quick Baked Beans and you are all set! We had the leftovers for lunch the next day and it was just as good! I love it when I can get two meals out of one night of cooking! Give this a try ASAP! I promise that you won’t be disappointed.

I make this quite often for my husband. He smokes pork butt a lot!!!
I use Famous Daves original cornbread and sweet baby rays spicy bbq sauce. It’s a great meal to freeze!!! ( husband is out of town Monday-Friday)
This recipe has been in our monthly rotation for a while now! Although confession – I have never made it with pulled pork but instead pulled chicken (I just boil some chick tenders until 165 degrees, shred it with a hand mixer, and add bbq sauce). It is so fast and easy for a quick weeknight meal. Fam fav! ❤️😋
I would like to make this ahead and freeze it. You mentioned partially baking the cornbread…I am just a little confused. Would you pare back just cornbread for like 10 min then add remaining ingredients and then freeze?
Prepare the recipe up to step 3 – but don’t finish baking it.
Absolutely loved this recipe. Flavor was great and the textures really went well together.
This was a recipe we really liked. I did goof and added 1 2/2 cup of BBQ sauce but tasted just fine. Great way to use up left over pulled pork.
I used Trader Joe cornbread mix.
If I make this without the bbq sauce will I need to substitute it?
That is entirely up to you.
I was the skeptic. Hmmm….I don’t know about this recipe. I made it anyway. I had pulled pork leftover.
This is delicious. Made it exactly as written. We really enjoyed this casserole. Many thanks. 😊
SO glad you took a chance, Lorraine!
Can you make the cornbread the night before and add pork topping the next morning and finish baking ?
I think that would work fine.
Can you freeze the left overs?
sure
I made this tonight and it was delicious! I LOVED the slightly burnt, crunchy edges of the cornbread so much that next time, I think I’ll make this in individual muffin tins vs. one big pan. Either way, it was amazing. Hubby & I both had seconds!
Also to answer one of the other commenters, one pound of pulled pork is approximately 2 cups.
I just made this recipe exactly as written and it turned out perfectly! Edges looked a little burnt- most likely because of the sugar in the bbq sauce, but no worries, it is delish! And so easy! Thanks for this recipe!!
Excellent dish didn’t have fresh parsley so sprinkled fennel pollen over the finished dish fit for company and will be making it again as pork is one of our favorite meals.
This was really good. I didnt have Jiffy but made my own recipe adding a little sugar to it.
If using leftover pulled pork, how many cups would I need? Thank you!
I weighed the pork on a kitchen scale to get a pound. I did not measure it in cups, so I’m not sure.
You mentioned using the Kirkland brand pulled pork… well, I used the Del Real pork carnitas from Costco and it turned out amazing! The package comes with two packs, and so we used one for carnitas and one for this. Absolute perfection!!
I don’t have cornbread mix. Can I use cornmeal?
Cornmeal is not an equivalent substitute to a box of cornbread mix.
Taste like a Tamales. I used gluten free Bob’s Red mill corn bread mix. I mixed the 2 recipes heated the oven at 400 degrees,
used a 13X 9 greased pan. THEN FOR THE recipe I used
I can of cream style corn.
1 1/2 Cups of milk, ,
2 eggs,
1 cup cheese ,
1 pkg of Bob Redhill cornbread-
1/8 C. Of Wesson oil beat it on high with an electric mixer for 30 seconds. Poured in greased 13 X 9 pan.
Baked at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
Then added in a bowl 1 lb of pulled pork in a bowl added 1 1/4 Cups sweet Baby Ray’s mixed well. Spread over the corn bread. Topped with 1 cup cheese. Baked another 15 minutes. Let it rest 5 minutes and serve. Be aware do not bake it as long as the original recipe. Enjoy… Diana Krotzer
This looks so yummy! Going to try tonight for dinner! I don’t have creamed corn, would a can of regular corn work if I drained it? Thank you!
You may need to add some extra liquid to compensate for the liquid in the creamed corn.
If I double the recipe how long should I cook it? I didn’t even think about that and also didn’t up the pan size 😬
Made this tonight and it was a hit! We usually smoke a large pork shoulder every couple of weeks and are always looking for great recipes for the leftover meat. This was perfect. Hubby and two little kids really enjoyed it! Thank you for posting this!
