💡 Tips for Success

• Cook the tater tots a few extra minutes for maximum crispiness—they'll hold up better under the toppings.
• Add the lettuce and tomatoes after baking to keep them fresh and crisp.
• Try different Mingua Beef Jerky flavors to change up the flavor profile.
• Want a little heat? Add sliced jalapeños or drizzle with hot honey.
• Serve on a sheet pan for easy sharing during game day.
• Double the recipe if you're feeding a crowd—it disappears fast!
