Can I use a different cut of steak?

Absolutely! While sirloin is my go-to for balanced flavor and tenderness, flank steak works great too (slice it super thin against the grain). Ribeye is pricier but oh-so-indulgent with all that marbling. The key? Cut whatever you use into small, even pieces so they cook quickly and stay juicy.

How do I make homemade yum-yum sauce?

It's easier than you think! My simple blender version uses mayo, ketchup, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and a tiny bit of sugar. Find my exact measurements on Pinterest - it comes together in literally 2 minutes. Pro tip: let it chill for 30 minutes to let the flavors really marry.

Can I add other vegetables?

Totally - this is where hibachi shines! Mushrooms caramelize beautifully, onions get sweet and tender, and bell peppers add color. Just remember: slice everything thin and add delicate veggies (like bean sprouts) at the last minute. Frozen veggies work in a pinch too - no shame in that game!

Is there a substitute for sesame oil?

If you're out, regular oil works - but you'll miss that toasty flavor. Try browning a little butter extra (careful not to burn!) or adding a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds at the end. Once you try the real deal though, you'll never skip it again - that tiny bottle lasts forever!
