Preheat a large cast iron or other heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat.
-
Slice Baguette into 4 equal parts then slice those in half. Spread sriracha-mayo sauce on the bottom slice and set aside.
-
Add ground pork to a large bowl. Add in the basil, garlic, scallions, fish sauce, sriracha, sugar, cornstarch, freshly ground black pepper, and kosher salt. Loosely mix together with your hands until well combined.
-
Form patties so they will fit inside the bun (about 2.5 inches in diameter) and make an indent in the center with your thumb.
-
Add a thin layer of sesame oil to the pan and add your burger patties making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Sear until cooked through (about 4 minutes on each side).

Serve burger on the baguette with pickled vegetables, then cilantro, and if you like it spicy sliced jalapeño peppers.
