Wagyu at Walmart

My Walmart started offering wagyu burgers this last year
And I’ll occasionally pick up a pack. 5 bucks. Not a horrible mid week dinner.
But I ran across this today...

They had all cuts and the NY strips were all discounted heavily. And since we’ve got a ton of food going this weekend I decided to throw down 10 bucks and slice this one up as an appetizer later. Will be surprised to see this becoming an everyday item on the shelves @$30/lbWetumpka, Alabama

Hope to see a pic of the appetizer you come up with. Good deal._____________

Dang. Why not at that price. Interesting to hear your thoughts on it"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

I purchased and grilled a couple of these burgers today with hickory wood. They actually are pretty good.

To me it seems like buying Wagyu at a Walmart would be akin to ordering sushi at a gas station - sorry not trying to troll“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

So I finally got around to cooking the steak late this afternoon
Before seasoning
And after a quick cook at roughly 450
The verdict:
We both thought it was pretty good. Not fantastic but definitely worth $10. I would be pi$$ed had I paid nearly $30. But if I walk by the meat aisle in the future and see the yellow discount stickers I won’t hesitate to pick up a pack or two.
And this is coming from a guy that buys very little meat at Walmart. I gave up their beef many years ago with most cuts after a few bad experiences.
I’m lucky to have a couple of wagyu farmers within reach and even closer a couple of butchers that sell a ton of fun stuff.Wetumpka, Alabama

Withdrawn.@gonepostal you did that steak justice sir!“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

Next you’ll tell me you can buy men’s Obsession at Walmart.

I buy the thick cut prime steaks at Walmart that come in the black packaging and the gold labels. Usually in the 1.25-1.5 pound range for less than $15. They are great for reverse searing. The fat is pretty hard but renders great if you cook it right.Kansas City, KansasSecond hand Medium BGE, Second hand Black Kamado Joe Classic, Second hand Weber Kettle, Second hand Weber Smokey Mountain
