Wagyu Beef is world renowned as being the most luxurious breed of cattle. Famed for it’s highly marbled and tender meat, this truly is a steak to be reckoned with.

Literally translated as ‘Japanese Cow’- Wagyu has it’s origins in the small town of Kobe in the south of Japan near Osaka. Stories of the how this breed of cattle became famous for producing the marbled, tender rich meat that it does are legendary. Massaging the cattle, playing them music and even feeding them beer are all spoken about contributing to their unique flavour and texture.

Wagyu cattle are also now farmed in Australia and Chile, where the majority of our Wagyu Beef comes from. The Australian Wagyu Association is the second largest association outside of Japan producing both full blood and cross bed cattle.

Wagyu Beef can be used in a variety of ways. Traditional shabu shabu method of cooking in Japan is perfect for this type of beef, with thin strips being quickly cooked in hot bowls of stock keeping the beef very tender. With a texture unique to any other beef and a richness highly sought after, simply griddling a whole steak is a great and very simple way to cook and enjoy wagyu.
