Memorial Day BBQs often leave us with plenty of tasty leftovers that were seasoned with Bear Creek Rubs spices. One of the best ways to enjoy your BBQ leftovers is by making smoky BBQ loaded wraps. These wraps combine the rich flavors of grilled meats with fresh veggies and tangy sauces, creating a meal that feels fresh and exciting even after the holiday.

What You Need for Your BBQ Loaded Wraps
To make these wraps, gather your leftover BBQ meats such as brisket, pulled pork, grilled chicken, or even burgers. You’ll also want:
Large flour tortillas or wraps for easy rolling
Leftover coleslaw for crunch and tang
Pickles or pickled onions to add a sharp bite
Cheese slices or shredded cheese for richness
Lettuce or any leftover grilled vegetables for freshness
Extra BBQ sauce or spicy mayo to boost flavor
A dash of Woodland Embers Smoked Salt
Sep-by-Step Guide to Building Your Wrap
Warm the Meat
Reheat your leftover meat, that have been seasoned with Smoking Blue Bonnet, in a skillet or microwave. Add a splash of BBQ sauce to keep it moist and flavorful.
Toast the Tortillas
Lightly toast the tortillas in a dry skillet. This adds a subtle crispness and prevents the wrap from becoming soggy.
layer Your Ingredients
Start with a base of warm meat, then add a generous scoop of coleslaw. Next, place cheese slices or sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Add pickles or pickled onions , and finish with lettuce or grilled veggies for a fresh crunch.
Add Sauce and Roll
Drizzle extra BBQ sauce or spicy mayo over the fillings. Roll the wrap tightly to keep everything inside.
Optional Grill for Crispiness
If you like a crispy outside, grill the rolled wrap briefly in a skillet. This melts the cheese and seals the wrap, making it easier to eat.
Tips for Making the Best BBQ Wraps
Mix and match meats: Combine brisket with pulled pork or grilled chicken for a variety of flavors.
Use fresh veggies: Even if you don’t have leftover grilled vegetables, fresh lettuce or sliced tomatoes work well.
Cheese choice matters: Cheddar, pepper jack, or smoked gouda all complement BBQ flavors nicely.
Wrap tightly: Rolling the wrap firmly helps keep the ingredients from falling out and makes it easier to eat on the go.
