Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
- Mix the 16 cloves of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of minced oregano, 2 teaspoons of salt, and pepper in a bowl. Rub garlic mixture over the pork butt, and place pork in a shallow roasting pan.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue roasting until pork is tender and no longer pink in the center, about 2 hours and 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Cover the meat with two layers of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 20 minutes before rough chopping or shredding it. Reserve pan drippings.
- Place the chipotle peppers in a bowl, and cover with hot water. Allow peppers to soak until softened, about 3 minutes; drain. Set aside. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in 8 cloves of minced garlic and the chopped onions; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the Roma tomatoes, 1 cup of water, chipotle chili peppers, 5 teaspoons of oregano, sugar, and salt to taste. Add the reserved pan drippings. Simmer, uncovered, over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Pour the chipotle sauce into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the sauce moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the sauce right in the skillet. Strain the sauce through a sieve.
- To serve: Hollow out the bottom half of each bolillo to make a shallow bowl for the chopped pork. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the chipotle sauce over the bottom of each roll, then arrange the chopped pork over the sauce. Top each sandwich with a couple slices of pickled jalapeno, followed by the top half of the roll. Pour about 1/4 cup of additional chipotle sauce over the entire sandwich.

Steps:
- Season the cutlets with salt and pepper, to taste. Put the flour in a dinner plate and season with salt and pepper. Put the bread crumbs in a second plate and the beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip the cutlets into the flour, then the eggs and finally into the bread crumbs, pressing down on both sides so that the bread crumbs adhere to the meat.
- Heat 1/2-inch oil in a large skillet to 350 degrees F. Pan-fry the cutlets in batches until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on the thickness. Set aside to drain on paper towels.
- To assemble the sandwiches, halve the rolls horizontally. Pull out the soft center of the slices and discard. Spread each roll evenly with the Chipotle Mayonnaise. Put the cutlets on the bottom halves of the rolls and top with lettuce, tomato, avocado, onion and jalapeno. Arrange the sandwiches on serving plates and garnish with lime wedges.
- In a small bowl mash together the chipotle chile, lime juice and mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
CHICKEN TORTAS (MEXICAN SANDWICHES)
This is an easy and delicious Mexican sandwich that is served all over here in San Diego. You start with the famous soft oblong Mexican sandwich bread roll called "Bolillos" but any soft sandwich roll will do. It's sort of a burrito on a bun. You can also make them with seasoned ground or shredded beef (leftover taco meat perhaps?). I hope you like them!

MEXICAN STEAK TORTA
This is a Mexican sandwich filled with char grilled steak, beans, avocado, lettuce and tomato all served up on a warm toasted roll. Growing up in Southern California this has become a family favorite. If cotija cheese is not available, use cheddar. Serve warm with Spanish rice.

- Queso Fundido Torta. This hot and cheesy torta recipe gets a slightly smoky boost from roasted poblano peppers. The best time to start sautéing the chorizo is while the peppers are roasting in the oven, so everything comes out hot at the same time.
- Cemita Poblana (Puebla-Style Sandwich) This filling sandwich is a staple in the Mexican state of Puebla, where it earns its name from the signature sesame seed encrusted rolls it uses (i.e., cemitas).
- Pressure Cooker Chicken Salsa Tortas. These pressure cooker tortas are as easy as they are delicious. This chicken torta recipe only calls for seven ingredients—eight if you include the optional queso fresco—including a jar of salsa and six bolillo rolls.
- Molletes. A mollete is an open-faced sandwich popular throughout northern Mexico. Just like our version, this Mexican sandwich recipe is served open face, loaded with black beans, cheese, and fresh pico de gallo.
- Torta Ahogada (Drowned Sandwich) A true tortas ahogadas recipe is dipped (ahogadas means "drowned" in English) in a red chile sauce before serving.
- Cola-Chipotle Pork Tortas. In authentic Mexican torta recipes, Mexican cola is often the secret ingredient for infusing the pork with a burst of pure cane sugar.
- Torta de Albondigas (Mexican Meatball Subs) When it comes to these Mexican sandwiches, we're not sure what we like better—the garlicky, cumin-spiced meatballs or the refreshing cabbage slaw.
- Tortas Hamburguesas (Mexican Hamburgers) Take your burgers for a south-of-the-border trip with a few key ingredients. Cilantro, lime juice, and onion mixed into the ground beef add bites of Southwestern flavor to this tortas hamburguesas recipe.
- Mexican-Style Pot Roast Sandwiches. Bold flavors like pickled red onions, cumin, and cilantro add a Mexican-style twist to these slow cooker pulled pork sandwiches.
