Torta Ahogada

The torta ahogada is a “drowned” sandwich from the Mexican state of Jalisco, particularly Guadalajara. Roast pork is stuffed into a bolillo roll, garnished with onions, and “drowned” in a fiery sauce packed with chile de árbol. Sandwiches come either “partially” or “well” drowned.

This sandwich must always be eaten with your hands, regardless of mess. To use a knife and fork is to cop out.
