Sandwich
- 1 crispy French baguette
- 1 1/2 pounds bulgogi pulled pork (above)
- Lee Kum Kee Sriracha Mayo, to taste
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup kimchi
- 1/3 cup cilantro leaves
- 3 cups daikon, julienned

Method
To make the bulgogi pulled pork
Step 1
Place the pork shoulder in a large pot.
Step 2
Pour 3 cups of the bulgogi marinade over the pork, ensuring it's well-coated.
Step 3
Add the roughly chopped onions and carrots on top.
Step 4
Cover with water.
Step 5
Bring the pot to a boil and reduce heat to medium-low for 4 hours until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Step 6
Once the pork is cooked, use two forks to shred it directly in the slow cooker. Mix the shredded pork with the cooking juices.
Step 7
Stir in 1 cup of the bulgogi marinade. Set aside until ready to assemble sandwiches.
To make the pickled carrots and daikon
Step 1
Combine julienned Korean radishes and carrots in a bowl.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix rice vinegar, maple syrup (or white sugar), and salt until sugar dissolves.
Step 3
Pour the vinegar mixture over the radish and carrots. Toss to coat evenly. Allow to pickle for at least 30 minutes.
To assemble the sandwich
Step 1
Cut the French baguette into desired sandwich-sized pieces.
Step 2
Spread a generous layer of Sriracha mayo on both sides of the baguette.
Step 3
Add thinly sliced cucumber, kimchi, and pickled carrots and daikon.
Step 4
Add a good portion of bulgogi pulled pork on the bottom half of the baguette.
Step 5
Sprinkle cilantro leaves on top. Slice in half and serve.
