Directions
Preheat oven to 400˚F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Rub potatoes with oil; sprinkle with salt. Place potatoes on prepared pan.
Bake until very tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Cut a lengthwise slit down center of each potato, making sure not to cut all the way through. Carefully squeeze sides to open each potato. Using a fork, fluff each potato. Top potatoes with pork, cheese, avocado, sour cream, red onion, and jalapeño. Drizzle with barbecue sauce, and sprinkle with cilantro.
