The Vietnamese banh mi sandwich has captivated Americans looking for a little adventure between the bread. It’s traditionally composed of cooked pork, pate and pickled vegetables on a crusty French baguette, but the chefs at the National Pork Board reconfigure the flavors and ingredients in a burger format. The well-seasoned ground pork boasts shallots, ginger, cilantro, chilies, fish sauce and sambal; Sriracha mayo adds an extra burst of boldness.
