Step 1
Pierce each sweet potato 3–4 times with a fork. Microwave on high for 10 minutes, turning halfway, until very soft inside.
Step 2
Warm pulled pork in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 3 minutes.
Step 3
Halve each sweet potato lengthwise. Fluff the insides with a fork and top each half with a pat of butter.
Step 4
Divide warm pulled pork between the four potato halves, piling it high in the center of each.
Step 5
Sprinkle cheddar over the pulled pork. Return to the microwave for 90 seconds until cheese melts.
Step 6
Drizzle with hot honey and scatter scallions on top. Serve immediately.
