Essential Cooking Tips

Use these basic techniques to protect the flavor, marbling, and texture of American Wagyu beef.

Temperature Control

American Wagyu is best cooked to medium-rare (130-135°F) to protect the marbling and buttery texture.

Rest Your Meat

Allow steaks to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking and 5-10 minutes after for optimal juiciness.

High Heat Searing

Use high heat for initial searing to develop a beautiful crust, then reduce heat to finish cooking gently.

Minimal Seasoning

Our beef needs simple seasoning - salt, pepper and maybe garlic or herbs.
