    My family and I visited your store a few weeks ago and we wanted to bring along our Brazilian friends. He is a true carnivore and I knew he would appreciate a fine cut of meat. I had the opportunity to visit Brazil a few years ago and of course he treated us to a visit to one of their Brazilian steakhouses. It was an unbelievable experience. So in return I was hoping that you might have some A5 Wagyu that I could buy to treat my friends with. As luck would have it there was an A5 ribeye, the only one I might add, that I was able to purchase. I grilled it that night and it was shared among about 6 of my family members, and of course my Brazilian friends. It was such a wonderful experience and the flavor was out of this world! Thank you for this unforgettable experience. Looking forward to our next trip to your store!

    American wagyu takes 1 1/2 to 2 years to raise the beef to slaughter
    Wagyu took 4 years to allow the marbling to develop properly.

      In all honesty, there needs to either be a different name for the American blend, or it needs to stop being called Wagyu, because it’s not Wagyu. Not only are those butchered waaaay earlier than the real ones, but the meat is completely different.

    I was invited to a dinner party years ago at a restaurant in NYC which served A5 Wagyu steaks! I didn’t know about the background of the Japanese beef. I had never eaten at a “high end” restaurant before. It was incredible as it melted in my mouth and the flavors were indiscribable The steak was 5 ounces or as the menu said 140 grams. The only additives was salt and butter. When I was told the cost it blew my mind! They served 15 grams of caviar from Russia with cream cheese on very thin rice crackers with Mother of Pearl spoons. Thank goodness I didn’t have to pay the bill! It was a memorable event I will never forget! Have tried two different American Wagyu brands! While the American Wagyu is great it isn’t the real thing, but then the cost is much much lower. Guess I will have to suffer with JUST normal American beef! Thanks for a great show that brought back tasty memories! Love your skills, personalities and openness!

    Love your videos as I find them very informative. A 1.5-2 cm steak at 538 degrees C (1,000 F in freedom units) seems like it would only need 30 seconds per side to achieve rare to medium rare which is what most people eat A5 at. Many people actually freeze their wagyu steaks for a few minutes to help prevent overcooking and keep the center rare to medium rare. I truly appreciate the video and explanation of the two types of steaks. Your steaks looked a little more medium to medium well. If you did this again what would you change? For that thin a steak I assume 30 seconds or less at that heat? Maybe keep that heat if your steak was an inch or a little more and do 45 seconds? Someone commented below and is correct that with the A5 wagyu the fat will melt at a lower temp and once the fat starts melting you are in business. Keep the great videos rolling.

    Great video. I appreciate the discussion on the American Wagyu vs Japanese A5. Would you someday in the future compare an American raised 100% (full blood wagyu) to an A5 Japanese Wagyu? There are full blood wagyu breeders in the US. Unfortunately there aren't currently any limitations/laws as to what can be labeled Wagyu in the US. If it has a tiny bit of Wagyu it can still be called wagyu just like one that is 50/50, 75, or 100. This can cause confusion and I think these caveats should be discussed at some point if not already covered in other videos. Might also be an interesting to see a 100% wagyu ranch in a video. At any rate thanks for the great content and its very entertaining and informative.

    The first 2-3 pieces of A5 is pure heaven but it’s a guarantee that if you were served a large portion you would probably prefer the American Wagyu.

      @donkeykong7976 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      so true. Japanese wagyu s are meant to be served thin slices and small portion, like ''shabu shabu'' or ''sukiyaki'' style. I'd much rather eat American USDA Prime steak, if I had a choice between Japanese wagyu steak and USDA prime steak. from Japan.

    Hi guys. We brought some American Waygu I have access from my boss from his wholesale . A-5 is incredible. 1 A-5 steak 7oz. Steak was $225 . It tastes like cotton candy only beef. Incredible
    The American Waygu is expensive, but a small niche will buy it. I’m an owner in a supermarket in North East Ohio. I still love to cut meat, but mostly I create homemade salads, and entree’s
    Best wishes and as an OSU alumnus, it would be fun if we can meet. Best wishes to you guys, and God Bless

    One suggestion with the A5 (learned on a trip to Japan) is to pair it with REAL wasabi. It helps to cut through some of the richness of the steak.

    I was just in your store, Whitefeather Meats. I purchased one of your premium aged strip steaks. I also purchased an A5 Wagyu ribeye. I cooked the strip to medium rare, used your butter blend and black seasonings, and have to say I was underwhelmed. I have had better ten day aged prime Angus cooked at home. I tried to enquire at the counter how many days "premium aged" meant but all I kept getting is, "we age all of our meat at least ten days." I do not know if your staff member did know how long the steaks are aged or if he has been instructed not to tell the public as you see your process as proprietary. As I am sure you well know there is a big difference between a ten day aged steak and a 45 day aged steak. In response to the question if the meat is dry aged or wet aged the response was, "I am pretty sure it is wet aged." I have not cooked the A5 yet. I drove over an hour to your shop to see if it was worth the trip. I bought nearly $300 worth of meat and hopefully the rest is better than the strip I just made. I expected a butcher shop and got a store full of coolers. I went on the recommendation of someone else. I do appreciate you having other meat options than the typical fare that most shops will carry. I am not sure if that is enough to draw me back for a second trip. I will have to watch some of your videos now that I found you on here.

    In several areas of Japan, Wagyu beef is shipped carrying area names. Some examples are Matsusaka beef, Kobe beef, Yonezawa beef, Mishima beef,Ōmi beef, and Sanda beef. In recent years, Wagyu beef has increased in fat percentage due to decrease in grazing and an increase in using feed, resulting in larger, fattier cattle.
    Wagyu is name of a breed of cow.
    There is no way these two cuts you are looking at are the same, similar or in any way have any similarities other than they are beef
