Steps:

• 1.) Heat up BBQ meat and baked beans in separate containers til hot (microwave is fine).
• 2.) Place chips in a single layer on large serving platter or baking sheet.
• 3.) Place on the chips (in this order): beans, meat, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, BBQ sauce, jalapenos, cheese (for the sour cream and BBQ sauce, if you want a bit more precision than just plopping it on top, I'd suggest putting each into separate sandwich bags, cutting of one of the corners and piping it on top of the platter).
• 4.) Serve and enjoy!
