Looking for some premium cuts to celebrate Melbourne Cup win yesterday and stumbled on some Japanese Wagyu which will sure appease the family and friends.
Buy one and get the other for half price is a pretty good deal given that Japanese Wagyu is normally $250 to $300 per kg and this is roughly $195 per kg. Last i checked only 25 left in stock so you snooze you lose…
Op must have been the one that won $3.2m in Melbourne cup yesterday.
It looks really fatty!
no shit
I agree.
Paying $200/kg for what's basically beef tallow that costs way less than $10/kg, sounds crazy.
Each to their own. Buy it if you think it tastes better or are unable to cook a normal steak. More fat makes it harder to stuff up.
I get the "you're paying for fat" argument. My go to would be the black onyx mb3 rump cap for circa $30-40/kg… But you can't take away that a5 experience. Totally different type of steak. Can't eat it in the same way, or volume like a normal steak, so yeah, different kettle of fish imho.
Is it really that different to normal beef? Honestly… Tastes the same. It's just moist beef with some glamour attached.
It's fatty beef that just drips or burns away while cooking. Def not worth $200/kg.
This goes well with my shiraz
$117 for 500g fat
