Step-by-Step Instructions for Korean Burrito
  1. Place the pork butt into a slow cooker. Mix chicken stock, gochujang, honey, and soy sauce. Pour over pork and cook on high for 4-6 hours or low for 8-10 hours.
  2. Prepare pickled veggies by combining sliced carrots, cucumbers, and daikon radish. Boil rice vinegar with sugar and salt, then pour over veggies and let pickle.
  3. Warm flour tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Assemble burritos with cooked rice, pulled pork, pickled veggies, fresh herbs, kimchi, and kimchi mayo.
  4. Roll tortillas around filling, tucking in the sides. Cut in half and serve immediately while warm.
