    Try not to be jealous, but The Bearded Butchers are going to cut, cook, and compare Wagyu Beef. American Wagyu is simply Wagyu genetics married to American beef genetics. A5 is 100% Japanese beef. Because of the American/Japanese marriage, American Wagyu has some different characteristics compared to A5, let's see if they taste different. The 5 senses are all here; 1) Sight 2) Sound (Sizzle) 3) Smell 4) Taste (Umami) and 5) Texture
    Check out all of our seasonings at bit.ly/3o9BqS7
    There's ton's more information about Wagyu beef and how it's different than American beef here in this other video: • Wagyu Beef and Kobe Be...
    Some differences of note:
    - A5 Wagyu fat melting temperature: 75-77 F
    - American Wagyu fat melting temperature: 86-104 F
    - Wagyu beef is loaded with "Umami" or savoriness. In a sense, it's like MSG because the taste of Umami is attributed to glutamate (the "G" in MSG). But no, Wagyu does NOT have MSG.

    5:47 - Cutting the American Wagyu ribeyes.
    8:37 - Time to grill up the Wagyu ribeyes.

    My family and I visited your store a few weeks ago and we wanted to bring along our Brazilian friends. He is a true carnivore and I knew he would appreciate a fine cut of meat. I had the opportunity to visit Brazil a few years ago and of course he treated us to a visit to one of their Brazilian steakhouses. It was an unbelievable experience. So in return I was hoping that you might have some A5 Wagyu that I could buy to treat my friends with. As luck would have it there was an A5 ribeye, the only one I might add, that I was able to purchase. I grilled it that night and it was shared among about 6 of my family members, and of course my Brazilian friends. It was such a wonderful experience and the flavor was out of this world! Thank you for this unforgettable experience. Looking forward to our next trip to your store!

    I was invited to a dinner party years ago at a restaurant in NYC which served A5 Wagyu steaks! I didn’t know about the background of the Japanese beef. I had never eaten at a “high end” restaurant before. It was incredible as it melted in my mouth and the flavors were indiscribable The steak was 5 ounces or as the menu said 140 grams. The only additives was salt and butter. When I was told the cost it blew my mind! They served 15 grams of caviar from Russia with cream cheese on very thin rice crackers with Mother of Pearl spoons. Thank goodness I didn’t have to pay the bill! It was a memorable event I will never forget! Have tried two different American Wagyu brands! While the American Wagyu is great it isn’t the real thing, but then the cost is much much lower. Guess I will have to suffer with JUST normal American beef! Thanks for a great show that brought back tasty memories! Love your skills, personalities and openness!

    How would you rate this "hot plate" method of griddling the beef - would it be as good for a thicker cut - I'm thinking not, as the inside would need to catch up with the outside.

    Great video. I appreciate the discussion on the American Wagyu vs Japanese A5. Would you someday in the future compare an American raised 100% (full blood wagyu) to an A5 Japanese Wagyu? There are full blood wagyu breeders in the US. Unfortunately there aren't currently any limitations/laws as to what can be labeled Wagyu in the US. If it has a tiny bit of Wagyu it can still be called wagyu just like one that is 50/50, 75, or 100. This can cause confusion and I think these caveats should be discussed at some point if not already covered in other videos. Might also be an interesting to see a 100% wagyu ranch in a video. At any rate thanks for the great content and its very entertaining and informative.

      so true. Japanese wagyu s are meant to be served thin slices and small portion, like ''shabu shabu'' or ''sukiyaki'' style. I'd much rather eat American USDA Prime steak, if I had a choice between Japanese wagyu steak and USDA prime steak. from Japan.

    I was just in your store, Whitefeather Meats. I purchased one of your premium aged strip steaks. I also purchased an A5 Wagyu ribeye. I cooked the strip to medium rare, used your butter blend and black seasonings, and have to say I was underwhelmed. I have had better ten day aged prime Angus cooked at home. I tried to enquire at the counter how many days "premium aged" meant but all I kept getting is, "we age all of our meat at least ten days." I do not know if your staff member did know how long the steaks are aged or if he has been instructed not to tell the public as you see your process as proprietary. As I am sure you well know there is a big difference between a ten day aged steak and a 45 day aged steak. In response to the question if the meat is dry aged or wet aged the response was, "I am pretty sure it is wet aged." I have not cooked the A5 yet. I drove over an hour to your shop to see if it was worth the trip. I bought nearly $300 worth of meat and hopefully the rest is better than the strip I just made. I expected a butcher shop and got a store full of coolers. I went on the recommendation of someone else. I do appreciate you having other meat options than the typical fare that most shops will carry. I am not sure if that is enough to draw me back for a second trip. I will have to watch some of your videos now that I found you on here.

    In several areas of Japan, Wagyu beef is shipped carrying area names. Some examples are Matsusaka beef, Kobe beef, Yonezawa beef, Mishima beef,Ōmi beef, and Sanda beef. In recent years, Wagyu beef has increased in fat percentage due to decrease in grazing and an increase in using feed, resulting in larger, fattier cattle.
    Wagyu is name of a breed of cow.
    There is no way these two cuts you are looking at are the same, similar or in any way have any similarities other than they are beef

    The meat shop I work at gets the same Japanese A5 Wagyu from the same Kai Wagyu company. It’s a phenomenal product, and you don’t need much of it. We recommend about 6 oz for a serving, because of how rich it is. You don’t even need seasoning on it; but if you do use seasoning, you only need a pinch.

    Obviously, y'all sell seasoning, so I realize it's to be expected, that it's used, but if I spend that kind of money on a steak, I better not have to season it. My grandpa always told me, when I was young, "if you have to season a steak, then it's not very good meat." Then again, he was raised during the Depression, so he had a simple, not extravagant mindset, about everything. I really need one of those fire pits.
