Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
Divide the marinade in half. Use one portion to marinate the beef slices and the other portion for the pork slices. Allow the meat to marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. (Marinating is optional but enhances the flavors.)
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Remove the meat from the marinade and discard the marinade. Pat the meat slices dry with a paper towel to ensure proper browning during grilling.
Grill the marinated beef and pork slices, working in batches if needed, for approximately 2-3 minutes per side or until cooked to your desired doneness.
While grilling the meat, grill the assorted vegetables until tender and lightly charred.
Transfer the grilled meat and vegetables to serving plates or bowls.
Garnish with thinly sliced green onions for an added touch of freshness.
Serve the homemade Yakiniku with steamed rice and dipping sauces such as ponzu or sesame sauce.
