idk, I had a real piece of wagyu last December at a real nice steak house, was not a fan. Although it was a bit cold I took a piece from my brother and it had a really diff taste

had a ribeye that night, literally amazing wish I had a picture. Might be back going in the next month or two so hopefully I remember to take some pictures

Depends on the kind of Wagyu you had. If it's American, then yeah it's good but not worth the price. Australian and Japanese Wagyu is top botch

im 99% sure it was Australian, is it supposed to have a different flavor from regular beef?

It's still beef, so for the most part, the taste will be the same. The quality is what differs because of the marbling of the fat. Japanese has better marbling. The more marbling, the more tender it is. It melts like butter.

American Wagyu

Australian

Japanese

Isn't there only a few places in the states that actually sell authentic Japanese wagyu?

Probably a handfull, and I think two are in Vegas and one in New York. There are a few meat delivey services that sell the real deal though.

crowdcow.com is one of them.

Yeah if its Kobe, you probably getting got. Kobe & Wagyu isn't the same though. There's plenty of legit Wagyu.

Damn, the Japanese cut looks like it’s about 85 percent fat...

Well Wagyu is the umbrella. Kobe is a variety of Wagyu

That's what makes it fyre. It renders and is just too damn good.

It probably ruined my appreciation of a lesser cut steak tbh.

Fish cakes and panang curry from King of Thai Noodle

That rice is perfectly cooked

Kobe is actually what I meant when I made my comment. Mixed it up.

 

[you go boy]

Need to try both wagyu and kobe since I love steak

wouldn't buy it anyways too much fat

Australian at least got a ton of marbling with some meat

I went to sushi once and splurged on some tuna sashimi with a higher end cut of tuna. Apparently, It has a much higher fat content that the normal sushi tuna. I don’t know that I’d say the flavor was much better, but it did melt in my mouth like nothing I’d had before. So, that was cool...

 

[plansb]

Toro?

Im not a big steak eater, but i dont really care for japanese wagyu. Little too much fat for me too. American wagyu is good though

 

[solewoman]

Salsa verde chicken soup

 

[lawdog1]

Toro?

Yep. That was it.

Apparently so. I'm not aware of what dry and wet aging does tho.

I have matcha already in my

Amazon.com : Amazing Grass Green Superfood Organic Powder with Wheat Grass and Greens, Flavor: Original, 30 Servings : Meal Replacement Drinks : Grocery & Gourmet Food
Amazon product ASIN B00112ILZM

How does this taste? I’m admittedly really picky with greens. Most taste straight up gross to me so I’m always iffy about green powders

I like green tea drinks and spinach. Might just cop some green tea extract and a couple bags of spinach and call it a day

I don’t even know if these taste like real green tea but I love these. A cold one

Coconut oil

I don’t like coconut **** is gross

Fat renders. You're not eating chunks of fat.

 

[cs02132]

I wanna try this sometime. That beet root extract sounds interesting

 

[davinelulinvega]

Don't look good but was, while reading the topic get hungry and remembered I got some rests of last meal (cooked about 8 PM yesterday now about 5 AM...)

Cappellini with arabiatta sauce and canned basil tuna, love this kind of meal super cheap but delicious (same with crumbled bacon and eggs or chopped off sausage/steak)

Love red onions and yellow peppers, but as I wasn't the only one to eat didn't add them...
Put way too much oil though...

 

[cs02132]

Damn I got a steak tip salad from work I was gonna eat tomorrow but now I might make spaghetti

Spaghetti and rotini >>

My favorite pastas
