About

Have you ever looked at your regular nachos and thought: "but what if we added more potatoes?" Well, Memphis Tot-chos thought that... and then went ahead and made some tasty changes! Instead of tortilla chips, crisp fluffy-on-the-inside tater tots form the bedrock of this house of flavor. Piled on top is a collection of Southern, Tennessee-inspired flavors — spicy pepper jack cheese, savory and tender pulled pork, and sweet and tangy barbecue sauce! Topped with cool and refreshing coleslaw, Memphis Tot-chos bring Tex-Mex and Southern snacking together for a great treat!
