1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all ingredients. Dice the adobo pork if necessary, and chop the pico de gallo into small pieces.

2
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
3
Assemble the Sandwich
Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. On the unbuttered side of two slices, layer the cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, crispy bacon, adobo pork, and pico de gallo. Top with the other two slices of bread, buttered side up.
4
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 4-5 minutes per side. Press down slightly with a spatula for even grilling.
5
Serve
Once grilled to perfection, remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately with extra pico de gallo on the side if desired.
