Place the beef chuck roast and pork shoulder in the slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, red pepper flakes, and water.
Pour the sauce mixture over the meat in the slow cooker, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours, or until the meat is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the meat from the slow cooker and shred using two forks. Set aside.
Strain the cooking liquid into a saucepan, discarding any large solids.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the saucepan with the cooking liquid.
Heat the sauce over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens (approximately 3-5 minutes).
Return the shredded meat to the slow cooker and pour the thickened sauce over it. Stir to combine.
Serve the shredded beef and pork over rice, in lettuce wraps, or as a filling for tacos. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
