Wagyu beef at Costco in Canada

paqman

I have seen frozen wagyu beef sold online at costco.ca but this is the first time I see that they sell fresh ones at a retail warehouse.

I know what I am eating for diner.

Now I have to decide if I sous vide them and then sear them on the coals caveman style or if I just grill them....

Whatever you do pull those bad boys early! No way I'm over cooking something like that. Enjoy.

I hate to say it but I'd avoid the egg. SV then cast iron on that big underused clock in the kitchen.

Too late, it's on the egg direct.

I just did SV and then down on the spider hot. Turned out perfect. Why avoid the Egg?

Mmmmmmm Wagyu and foil ball sides. Just got back from Costco and read this. I'll have to go back and check this week.

Best steak I ever had... Unbelievable flavor and falling apart tender.

Nice @paqman

It looks wonderful @pagman.  Definitely not over-cooked!  I didn't see any seasoning on the steak on the egg.  Did you use a board dressing?  Phenomenal looking meal.

Looks good!

Wonder if those'll make it to the US and California specifically?

@caliking‌ - I could not believe it when SWMBO got in the car. She said: "Wagyu, that's good right?". And then she shown me the package...

Thanks @JRWhitee‌

@SmokeyPitt‌ - I never put any seasoning before searing a steak (except salt). Pepper develops a bitter taste when burned... I always season at the end of the cook while the meat is resting.

@SoCalWJS‌ - Good question... Even if you could cross the border, you would need one of those fancy coolers to make it there...

I just called a local meat shop and was informed he stocks American Kobe briskets for a few comp teams around here. 6.99 a pound. Going to try one this weekend I think.
