For the marinade, blend the guajillo chiles with the achiote, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, white vinegar, sour orange juice, and coarse salt until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
Pour the blended mixture over the pork until completely covered and marinate for 45 minutes in the refrigerator.
While the meat is marinating, prepare the dough. In a bowl, mix and incorporate the hot chicken broth with the lard; then gradually add Harina de Maíz Blanco Precocida P.A.N until you obtain a smooth and uniform dough.
Once the marinating time has passed, cook the meat in a skillet with hot vegetable oil over medium heat, making sure to stir the meat occasionally; if necessary, cover to prevent the meat from losing moisture. Keep warm.
Prepare the gorditas. Form medium-sized balls of dough and flatten them with your hands until you obtain a tortilla about one centimeter thick. In a hot griddle, cook the gorditas for 7 minutes on each side over medium-low heat. Using a serrated knife, cut the gorditas horizontally without separating the sides, fill with the al pastor meat, and serve hot.
Serve with chopped pineapple, onion, cilantro, lime, and guacamole to taste.
