Chef's Notes
Do not skip the lard when searing the pork. It provides the authentic, rich flavor profile that vegetable oil simply cannot replicate.
Pro Tip
Toast the cut sides of the bread lightly before adding the meat to create a moisture barrier so your sandwich stays structurally sound longer.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Using soft, fluffy sandwich bread instead of a crusty birote. You will end up with a bowl of mushy sadness instead of a majestic drowned sandwich.

Royal Court Comedy
Why did the torta jump into the pool? Because it wanted to be a little less dry inside!
The Culinary Science
The acidity from the vinegar in the tomato sauce helps cut through the heavy fats of the pork, activating your palate and making every bite taste brighter.
