Spicy: You can adjust the level of heat in this recipe to make it spicy or not. For more spicy, use the jalapeño and opt for all of either the sriracha or spicy chili garlic sauce (or a combination of the two).
For less spicy, omit the jalapeño and use a scant tablespoon of a mild chili sauce.
Tricks on how to avoid a soggy bun:
Toast the bun. This gives it a bit of a barrier to stand up to the sauce. But if you like a soft bun, and even if you toast it, I also suggest,
Spread butter or mayonnaise on the bottom bun. The fat acts as a shield so the sauce doesn't soak into the bread, or at least not as quickly. (This trick is also good for burgers, so the grease doesn't get the bun soggy.)
Sometimes I serve mine over a fluffy baked potato instead of using a bun.
