Wash and dry produce.

Halve, peel, and thinly slice half the @red onion{1%unit} (whole onion for 4 servings). Halve @lime{2%unit}. Drain @cannellini beans{2%unit}. Roughly chop @cilantro{½%oz}.

In a #small bowl{} (microwave safe), combine sliced onion, juice from whole lime (both limes for 4 servings), and a pinch of @salt{}. Cover with @plastic wrap{} and microwave for ~{30%seconds}; stir to combine. Set aside to pickle.

Heat a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add @pulled pork{16%oz}; cook, breaking up pork into pieces, until warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Add @BBQ sauce{16%tbsp} and beans; cook, stirring occasionally, until pork and beans are coated, 1-2 minutes.

Meanwhile, wrap @whole wheat pitas{4%unit} in damp @paper towels{} and microwave until warm and pliable, 15-30 seconds; halve crosswise.

Fill each pita pocket with pork and beans, cilantro, and as much pickled onion as you like (draining first). Divide between plates and serve. Pulled Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
