My family raises Wagyu/Angus cross in the Western US and we’ve visited Wagyu cattle farms in Japan. Full blood Wagyu steers take up to 36 months to finish to A5. US non-Wagyu feedlots take 18 months for prime. Japanese Wagyu are confined in 12x12 or so pens but are not usually feed beer. They do feed top quality imported alfalfa from places in US like Colorado and Utah, as well as many fed grains. Our F1 steers are both affordable and delicious.
I would like to learn more about them.
I would love to taste this beef! Can it be bought here in the US??
BUY AMEREICAN BEEF, buy everything that is made in or grown in the USA first
@@butchs2337Yes indeed
How do the breeding practices and feeding regimens between US-raised Wagyu/Angus cross steers and traditional full-blood Wagyu in Japan impact the flavor and quality of the beef? What are the key differences in taste and marbling that enthusiasts and chefs look for when choosing between these varieties?
Cows get stress free environment, and here we are in an office environment full of stress lol
I am sure given the choice the cows would gladly forgo the beer and massage, in exchange for roaming free, eating grass, in the open, with sunshine on their back, instead of being confined in sheds. I would not accepted, if given to me free. What makes a prison a punishment? Lack of freedom!
@@marcellogenesi6390 they would actually prepare the beer and message, dont kid yourself with projected ideals
@@rafflesiadeathcscent3507 I do not eat much meat, and if is not free range, I gladly go without
Right? Makes you wonder, what do you think would help make our work environments as stress-free as those for cows?
That background music reminds me of the documentaires ive seen in school back in the '90s.
That's nostalgic! Do you think the music added to the overall feel of the documentary, or did it take you out of the moment?
My prime rib(that I put on the grill) is good enough for me
Who would've thought a visit to the processing factory could be so exhilarating? ☺
Right? What part of the factory visit surprised or excited you the most?
WATCHING A BEEF I CANT AFFORD HAHAHA
It is the life of a peasant. I know for I am but a lowly peasant destined to carry on! 😉
God bless and be safe
Same. 😅😅😅😅
You're better off without it. Does nothing for you health wise. And you're not contributing to the slaughter of innocent animals who would rather live.
@@mikea5205it’s part of some nature ngl 😅
The marbling (fat) in a good USDA Prime ribeye is plenty sufficient for me! 😋
This is the sensible answer if you've never had Waygu. Once you do you absolutely won't anything else.
Want a cookie with that ribeye? 😂
Waygu will change your life.
We raise Wagyu/Angus cross cattle and while not pure Wagyu the meat exhibits traits from both breeds. The outcome is very good and somewhat more affordable for more folks. We made some deer sausage last week with Wagyu fat in it. Very good.
Any Waygu you get here in the US is a crossbred. Do not waste your $. USDA choice is just fine if cooked properly! You probably won't even taste the diff. 🥺
Wagyu beef are definitely NOT married. They must live a stress-free life. LOL
They're given beer till they get their appetite back.
Well then Sir, I'm not eating till I get my six pack of Heineken.
If you accept to be butchered later probably they will give u 6 pack beer
eating or working?
don't tell they drink a 12 pack a day
Haha, that’s a good one! Do you think a six-pack would improve your appetite too, like it does for those cattle?
The best beef in the world is here, the processing process is amazing
It's incredible to see the level of care and precision that goes into producing Wagyu beef. No wonder it's so expensive-the quality and process truly stand out!
It is incredible how they care for them.
Japanese Wagyu beef is so... expensive , but really worth it, it taste so... delicious, soft and very juicy melted in your mouth , very soft you can even cut it using chopsticks.
A stress free environment is key...massages and all!!! These cows are treated well. Here I am on my way to a stressful office environment full of disgruntled people. Maybe I should eat some wagyu beef for lunch today and relax...🤔🤔🤔
The cows are not given beer to drink. The farmer says he drinks the beer. No massage, either, but they do mist them and use the brushes.
Kobe beef the cattle are given beer and massaged daily with soft background music playing, no shit, I've seen it!!
I don’t know how such an educational and entertaining channel of yours only have few thousand subscribers ! Thank you
Well all of this is not good information. If an animal gains 2.5LBS per day (per video) and is slaughtered at 24 months it would weigh 1,825 LBS. If you know anything about cattle you know this is not realistic.
@@marckimbrell4645 l see, thanks
Wow that's why wagyu beef very expensive because of the texture of the meat ❤️
Have yet to try an eat.
Yeah, not at $200/lb.
Oh, my mouth is watering. I admit that technology is so great now. Beef production also follows quality assurance procedures.
I plan to try this in the future.
It is incredible how it is prepared.
I have ate both A3 and A5 ....for me I prefer A3 just because I can eat more and where A5 is way to rich where I can only eat 3 or 4 small piece.
It isn’t supposed to be eaten in large amounts, that’s the whole point.
There’s nothing like a real, true, quality A5.
I’ve visited Japan numerous times and it’s always something I enjoy.
However, to each their own, I can understand eating the lower quality if you want to consume large amounts of it.
Way too much fat. When the fat content is more than 35% you arent buying beef anymore. It's a heart attack on a plate.
Modern Beef Processing Factory' reveals the intricate processes and craftsmanship that justify Wagyu beef's premium price. It's fascinating to witness the dedication to quality and attention to detail in every step of the production."
I'm intrigued by the factors beyond quality that contribute to the high cost of Wagyu beef. What specific techniques and standards are employed in the processing factory to ensure the unique taste and texture that Wagyu is famous for? How does sustainability and animal welfare play a role in the production of such a prized delicacy?
When you see how they are cute theses animals, its hard to see them that you know already their destiny. I have heartache to see them.
Was at the 4 Season in Hawaii and had my first taste of Wagyu steak. 6oz for $175. It was my honeymoon and probably the last time I’d ever get a chance to eat wagyu. It was like eating cotton candy. So tender and tasty.
😅😅😅
I've had A5 and A5 olive Wagyu both were pink due to marbling. Taste like butter? No, fat was more like it. Thinking regular A5 lacked something I went for the rare version olive fed beef. These might be fine for an advanced palate. Save your money A3 was the better choice for me and actually the best steak I have ever had.
Never had A5 but if you want an amazing beef fat experience just prepare Thomas Kellers bone marrow recipe
Breed and Genetics:
Wagyu cattle, originally from Japan, are known for their unique genetics that promote intense marbling and high-quality meat. The breeding and maintenance of purebred Wagyu cattle are meticulous and require careful selection to preserve these desirable traits.
Did you like the olive? Could you taste it in the beef?
@@Summitclym It adds a nutty flavor but you can't tell it's olive in flavor. I waited 2 months for the suppler to get their delivery and order ahead was required.
@@xlr8tedzoom thanks!
My first time here ,this is so incredibly insightful and informative!!!! I'm gonna do my research on find out if it's in my country Jamaica 🇯🇲 from my favorite overseas supermarkets ❤
@giftedriders3194
I feel the same way because people like you, and I enjoy learning and appreciate knowledge. I hope you get to find Wagyu beef in your favorite supermarket in Jamaica. 😂 I am Chinese, and I am crazy about oxtail Jamaican style only! I live in Manhattan, but I take the train to Brooklyn to a tiny restaurant called "Good Hope" to get the best oxtail cooked with Lima bean sauce!☝️❤👍👍👍🤣
Good information great job broooooo thanks
Wagyu beef is renowned for its exceptional quality, tenderness, and rich marbling, which contributes to its high price. There are several factors that contribute to the expense of Wagyu beef, including the following:
There you go….. stress-free is the word. Our feedlot are anything but stress-free. The way in the America that we raise our beef is to crowd them together, stress is important, even though stress cattle are more likely to get sick. in fact, most of our meat is raised in a situation where stress is the highest. in pigs, because they are overcrowded, we have to cut their tails off otherwise, through nerve and stress other cat pigs will eat the tails.
I’ve always felt that an animal that raised without stress is going to have better meat. Being raised without stress, they have the best life possible, and no suffering.
Longer Feeding Time:
Wagyu cattle are typically raised for a longer period than other cattle breeds. This extended feeding time allows for more fat to be deposited within the muscle fibers, resulting in the renowned marbling that contributes to Wagyu's unique texture and flavor.
I couldn’t agree more. We produce our own eggs, pork, beef, and milk at my house. Best food I’ve ever had. Low stress, no hormones. Our milk and beef cows don’t ever see grain.
I think the only stress our animals get is a trailer ride.
Please get a human to read the script
Tried it, I believe it's so much more marketing than actual prime commodity...if u have $$ to waste, go ahead😂!!
Am sure you didnt had the good quality then😂
Japanese cows attending AA meetings.
Its been 40 days since I last had a beer says the wagyu cow.
Sorry, yuk, fat isn't my desired cut
Tallow is called waad in my country and the brown chunks that remains in it while cooking is called buggdiee which is sprinkled on a dish called haleem
USA needs to take notes, especially that crap Walmart sells
Ikr! I was gonna buy some excited there was some around. I went there looked at it and was like THIS AIN'T NO REAL WAGYU!🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’ve given beer to horses that can’t sweat. Old horsemanship knowledge. Makes me wonder if my horse might just want a beer! I’ll ask him. 😂
He shouldn't drink alone!
Would love to hear hank Hill's take on wagyu and kobe
for got about weekly pedicure and manicure ,sauna and massage, and once a week caviar as part their expensive food😂😂
Feeding and Diet:
Wagyu cattle are often raised with special attention to their diet. In Japan, some farmers feed their cattle a specific diet that includes high-energy grains, such as barley and corn, along with other essential nutrients. This feeding regimen contributes to the development of the characteristic marbling that sets Wagyu apart.
@@GoDiscovery Who gives a shit about Japan. I am American and I eat American beef!
It’s just a marketing ploy. More marbling means more fats, which means more cholesterol. Basically you are paying to have more cholesterol, and have heart issues.
Absolutely interesting from Ohio USA I’ve never eaten Wagu do you think price will ever come down in price? 🙏 ❤️
Really!!! Not even 15 seconds into the video and I hear "... marbly .." bye
i like the way the guy says it is still being eating even if inflation are causing prices of everything are going up, hey buddy the average Joe is not eating Wagyu beef at $200 per pound, inflation is not a problem for millionaires and Billionaires, it is just the middle class and poor people effected by inflation
This is ok. But angus is better. Go to Certified Angus Beef. Less expensive and taste better
My Costco in Arizona started selling Wagyu last week.
imagine growing up with a tag on your ears
It would've been very nice to be shown pictures of the marbling in the 4 different types of Japanese Wagyu.
@finalresultus
So you didn't watch the video
@finalresultus 2:59
Me too, but I wouldn’t mind trying the very best.
There’s just to much marbling fat in there for me. A good prime cuts good enough for me if cooked properly
So it's basically 70% fat...
Thanks for sharing this video! I'm exploring more effective and humane methods of raising animals. Do you have any advice for beginners? hdnh
If wagyu was treated soo well
Look at the clip at 20:12 the animals are standing in their own waste
The Farming Documentary showcased innovative solutions to common farming problems
No Thanks. I’ll stick to my USDA Ribeye Steak.
smothered in ketchup..yum
The six zero zero zero mile trip..... just have a human read the script.
"bu...bu...but... humans need to get paid with money that could be going into MY pocket T_T" - the channel owners, probably.
You’ve built an amazing channel that feels genuinely unique. What’s been your inspiration to stay true to your style?
Cmoon man.. Wagyu is fat with some meat. 🤘🏻
By the description of how Wagyu beef is raised, I think 80% of American adults have high marbling muscles！
I prefer meat from sonora mexico
It's the best meat Garantee
If you guys don't trust me get some sonora friends
Yup, stress free until they know their times up
I think I will stick with my Father's Black Angus Cattle he has a family farm here in Arizona and I get for free 😂
I love beef but these are too beautiful to eat
I thought, too.❤
All these people with childish palates that grew up on sugar and processed foods.
Wouldn’t know fine dining if they were sitting at the table.
dollar 200?
Oh and six, zero, zero, zero miles 😂
Its only expensive cos some people are stupid enough to pay high price for it
Charolais cattle beef is almost as good a meat in flavor as A3, their marbling is not the same as Wagyu but Charolais beef does have a lot of marbling.
For some of us, looking at all that fat is like risking eating Puffer Fish! Taking the Wagyu Beef Challenge. Only the Rich can eat it!
🍻 I did see a man pouring a bottle of beer in a cow's mouth said to improve appetite.
My HEART tells me ……😮😮
If you can afford to do it just once, it won't kill you
Heart attack cultivation
Raising plenty of Wagu humans here in the States.
I am waiting for an explanation of the thumbnail. Maybe it'll present itself in this here video.
Lots of stress for farmers to raise those stress free cows.
Wagyu beef eating expensive feed,like once a week caviar,king salmon,lobster and so on
Wagyu beef started by Japan buying Texas and Colorado cattle
There is so much fat marbling I don't know how they have enough strength to stand much less walk!
Labor-Intensive Care:
Providing proper care for Wagyu cattle can be labor-intensive. Some farmers go to great lengths to ensure the well-being of their animals, which can include massages, beer-fed diets, and other practices believed to enhance meat quality.
USDA " Prime " 😆
I consider this inhumane due to the fact they say the Japanese keep them in pens and never let them out of cages.
Eat the grass in your backyard then.
Similar to veal.
It is inhumane because they are animals. Not humans. "Inhumane"....
On another note, the cows have free roam, they’re played classical music and they get daily massages.
Wagyu are literally the best treated animal in the world
Is there vegan Waygu beef?
Hahahaha why would you even want to eat that crap
It’s all vegan. That’s what cattle eat😂
❤😊 this is so wonderful how God created things for us to eat and yet people don't believe that God is real and that we need Jesus as our savior I pray you will amen 🙏
You are a nut there is no sky GOD😂
I don’t think a Bronze Age goat herding story teller made Wagyu Beef.
Your Sky Daddy had nothing to do with the wonderful Waygu
What are you, 5 years old? Still believing in fairytales 😂. Your god and any other god made up by humans are the worst type of fairy tales which have only brought wars and discrimination towards others.
@@TheDoughGetta😂😂😂😂 sky daddy is crazy 😭🤣 this comment made my night
I can't figure out what the thumbnail is showing though...?
1:19 that's redundant when he said wagyu cow
I'm absolutely questioning my taste bc I can honestly say that dose not look appetizing. I don't like beef fat I'm a filet mignon kinda girl
Tubesteak?
Raised better than most children
Now i.want a steak
🥩 😋 15:09
Some people just too ignorant to understand the joy of learning.
I can't stand fat on my steak I always throw it away after it's cooked
It's food. Complain about the box Cheerios are in.
All beef are same after cooking .so no need of high value .cheap meat is good for common people .
Ha. So wrong
nanniii!!
It looks like blubber
It’s so fatty you can only eat so much.
i made this mistake. i bought and perfectly cooked a full a5 steak. every bite was just so good i ate the whole thing. 20 minutes later and i nearly threw up every time i burped, and my stomach felt absolutely horribly for like 2 days... now i only have like 1/4th a steak on the rare occasion i treat myself to it!
American Wagyu -- No Bueno.
I think if Las Islas Filipinas will try - it will be better than American Wagyu..
How's wagyu tripe like?
Jersey cow's also have much marbling
Your comment that wagyu beef is effected by climate change is debatable!
The two countries producing the best beef in the world are New Zealand and Argentina. Not a single beast raised spends a single day in a barn or grain fed. They live on farms in all weathers, eating good grass full of goodness....with suplementary winter feed of hay and baylage/silage.....
They are slaughtered humanely, and are hung for weeks at minus 5 degrees....with many cuts of the good steaks being matured and vacuum packed whole. The fat is a natural yellow....not white.
