(This recipe is using cooked carnitas from this slow cooker carnitas recipe but you can use any roast or pulled pork that is already cooked). If you are warming up the carnitas, heat up a dollop of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add a heaping cup of carnitas and cook until the underside is crisping up, approximately 5-7 minutes. You can add the ham slices to the pan for the last couple minutes of cooking if you want.
For the Chipotle Mayo, combine the listed ingredients in a blender or food processor. Taste for heat level and seasoning.
Each sandwich gets a layer of chipotle mayo, diced pickled jalapenos, cheese, pork or carnitas, and 2 ham slices.
Cook the sandwiches in a skillet over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes per side. Press down on the sandwiches with a casserole dish or pan to compress them. You can also add a thin layer of butter to the skillet if you want to crisp up the edges of the sandwich.
Cut in half and serve immediately with the chipotle mayo and pickled jalapenos on standby to add to future bites if needed.
