1. Prepare the ranchera sauce. Reserve, covered, in a pan off heat. In a large nonstick skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp and brown. Drain on paper towels. Crumble the bacon and reserve on a plate.
2. Prepare the chiles. (Keep the stems intact.) With a small sharp knife, cut a slit lengthwise from the stem end to within 1 1/2 inches of the narrow end. Carefully remove the seed pod and seeds. Rinse under running water to wash out remaining seeds. Pat dry with paper towels. Reserve on a plate.
3. Preheat oven to 300°. In a bowl, beat the eggs with a fork until well combined. Add the milk and salt. Beat to mix. Heat the butter and oil in a large nonstick skillet and cook the eggs, stirring slowly to scramble, until just set, about 3 minutes. Stir in the crumbled bacon and cook about 20 seconds more. Fill the chiles equally with the egg mixture and arrange on a baking sheet. Put in the oven to keep warm.
4. Reheat the sauce until it comes to a boil. To serve, place 1 stuffed chile in the center of each of 4 serving plates. Spoon some of the heated sauce on top of each serving, letting it pool onto the plate.
