Valmistamine
Preheat oven to 325F. Line 1 large sheet pan with parchment paper. Arrange onions and peppers into single layer; place pork pieces on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; rub to coat. Cover with foil. Bake for 2 hours. Remove foil; continue to bake until pork reached internal temperature of 205F and shreds easily, about 2 more hours. Let cool. Pull pork into shreds, discarding excess fat pieces.
In bowl, combine tomato sauce and BBQ sauce. Toss 1 cup of sauce with pulled pork, peppers and onions.
Assembly: In bottom of greased 10×14 inch deep baking dish, spread 1 cup of sauce; arrange 3-4 noodles on bottom, overlapping slightly, if needed. Arrange half of pulled pork and vegetables over top and sprinkle with 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese. Top with another layer of noodles, 1 cup of sauce, remaining pork mixture and 1 1/2 cups of cheese. Top with remaining noodles, pressing down, and top once more with remaining sauce and cheese. Cover with foil (tip: spray underside of foil liberally with cooking spray to avoid sticking to top layer of cheese). Bake in 375F oven for 1 1/2 hours, removing foil for final 30 minutes of cooking.
Let stand for 20 minutes before serving.
