I ate 6 packs of ramen in less than a week. This is and will be the only time I do this. Is it okay?

Chashu seems to require a lot of planning and time to make. What are some ideas for an easier/faster alternative?
I do want to try my hand at making pork chashu at some point, but it looks like it takes a lot of effort to make, and must be preppared well in advance of when you plan to eat it.
What are some alternative meat toppings that can more easily be thrown together if I decide I want to make a bowl of ramen that night? I realize you can kind of use anything, but I don't often have meat leftovers laying around, so I'm wondering if there's anything that works particularly well.
It seems like ground meat might be a good option, but I'd also like some ideas for a "chunkier" (for lack of a better term) option as well.

Ramen Meal Prep First-timer, want your opinions!
I’ve made single ramen portions before and I made the commitment for the meal prep.
I just want notes and opinions on other stuff, most of the choices I made were impacted with budget and such. Id just appreciate how to make the best with what I got.
I got two plans for the stock/sauce. Sometimes I might not want the full soup and want just a sauce to coat the noodles. Anyways here’s my plan
Stock 1- miso paste and dashi stock.
Notes- I’ve done miso ramen a couple times it’s my go to, I’m curious on adding maybe a good chicken stock I have on hand, mixed in. Want y’all’s opinion on that.
Option 2- Egg yolk, mayo, dashi and miso, made tossed as a sauce in the noodles.
Notes- it’s very creamy and great when I don’t want soup. Want to hear any other sauces that y’all might go to. Or anything y’all might add.
Toppings-Protein
For protein I plan on making ramen eggs, a Japanese bbq chicken slivers, and a Chashu Pork butt.
The chashu pork butt is what I want the most help on. I got pork butt cause it was what was available.
I plan on cutting up the pork butt into manageable pieces and rolling them up tying them up into logs and searing the sides. Then I plan on cooking them in the pressure cooker for 2 hours in a mix of mirin, soy sauce, scallions, garlic and ginger and water.
Note- after the pork is cooked I might save the pork soy mixture and see if it’s a good stock.
After the pork is cooked I will cut it up into slivers and sear the sides to give color.
Toppings- Veggies
Some veggies I have additional cooking notes that I want to add others are just gonna be thrown in.
Cremini mushrooms- cooked in soy sauce or Japanese bbq sauce.
Seaweed- I got whole seaweed, I plan on cleaning and boiling it. I don’t know if the seaweed will make a nice stock and would like to hear y’all’s experience.
Bean sprouts, sweet corn, scallions, and bok choy.
That’s basically it, when I mealprep I’ll mix and match em. Maybe one of them I’ll put them all in. Would love to hear y’all’s experience and the like.

Was going to make some ajitama and realised that I left an egg in the brine from the last batch. It's been in there for a few weeks.

Trying ramen tomorrow, what should a newbie get?
So I’ve never had ramen in my life, so I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the words I don’t know. I looked at the menu of the place I’m going and don’t know half the things in the dishes like menma, kikurage, dashi. I don’t have any eating restrictions so what kind of ramen would you say is best for a complete beginner?
