Hey bro check it out I found some premium 5a wagyu.

>>21115155
Yeah, you made this same joke the last 5 times you posted in a wagyu thread

good job.

i wanna try it, idk

>>21115142
the based bait devourer

Tried it, you might as well eat pure beef fat.

>>21115298
To anyone who has actually eaten wagyu, this is just a weird thing to say. It doesn't taste like regular beef fat, so saying "you should just eat beef fat instead" just makes you look stupid as fuck.

>>21115308
Similar texture and extremely overrated.

Why? The difference between beef ratings in the US (Select, Choice, Prime) is based on marbling of the beef. More marbling = more premium.

>>21115323
But it doesn't feel like beef fat either, wagyu fat melts at a much lower temp, and will literally melt in your hand if you hold it there.

Again, you're just wrong and making me think even more, you've simply never had real wagyu.

>>21115330
>wagwu meat folded over 100 times melts at your hand!!
How does that cow survive if his body melts at body temperature

It is just extremely fatty beef, texture is slightly softer but that is literally it. Sous vide your beef in butter and it is pretty much the same.

>>21115346
Lol again, you're just confirming for the thread you're not talking about some experience you've had, you're just mad about something you can't (or refuse to) afford.

>>21115308
Eh, I don't think most people who aren't weebs really care. Your post is giving strong "my dad works at Nintendo" vibes.

>>21115353
More like, i've actually prepared and eaten A5 on several occasions unlike OP who just shits on something he's never even touched.

Are American pork farmers fucking with us? Bacon in Canada and Engerlund is mostly meat. Meanwhile American bacon is mostly fat at $8/lb. Are we getting sold a lie?

>>21115356
Yeah, confirmed for weird kid energy.

>>21115362
I'd rather be the weird kid speaking about actual experiences than the moron that pretends he went to Europe over the weekend despite not being able to name the country in Europe or the city he landed at since he's just a LARPing faggot looking for attention, just like OP.

>>21115356
You will never be japanese. No matter how much overpriced beef you import from japan.

>>21115363
They'll never accept you in Japan, you know. You aren't Japanese and they can all tell just by looking at you.

>>21115365
>>21115364
I have zero interest in moving to, or living in japan at any point in my life.

But I'm glad your fantasies keep you entertained.

>>21115367
>Posting nothing but Japan-related nonsense and tranime

So...you fuck kids then?

>>21115371
And ogres


also YOU started this dumb thread looking for attention, you're getting the attention you crave, and now you're crying about it. Just kill yourself and save everyone the trouble.

>>21115367
Stop replying to low effort bait retard

>>21115130
Japanese food is disgusting. And it's coming from a weeb who go there 6x/year.

>>21115130
it's really good stuff, but has very little beef flavor. one good thing is that if you like your meat over cooked it will still be juicy.

it's not worth the price, and yes I have had it. prime grade angus tastes better, snake river farms wagyu style beef is better.

I like beef fat, but flavorless beef fat is boring.

>>21115298
>you might as well eat pure beef fat.
I have, and pure beef fat is delicious.

>>21115330
>wagyu fat melts at a much lower temp, and will literally melt in your hand if you hold it there.
no it doesn't. I've had the real stuff and it most certainly does not.

>>21115357
>Meanwhile American bacon is mostly fat
which is why American bacon is better.

>>21115563
It literally does, i've held raw A5 in my hand on half a dozen occasions

Hell, I'm pretty sure the first episode of the chef show on Netflix has Wolfgang puck doing Wagyu steaks and showing this exact thing happening if you don't want to take my word for it.

>>21115130
I’d put that in the oven. Slice it up and make French dip sandwiches

>>21115357
>Bacon in Canada and Engerlund is mostly meat. Meanwhile American bacon is mostly fat at $8/lb
It depends which part of the flitch it was cut from.

>>21115793
It’s not mostly fat

>>21115130
i mean this kind of high quality gourmet product is all over japan.
just wagyu gets memed/shilled harder than the others because of social media.

>>21115387
How the hell do you go there 6x a year and why do you still do it if you hate the food?

>>21115800
Technically, it is.

>>21115130
You should never be pretending in the first place, faggot.

>>21115357
Yurop has a type of bacon that is basically all fat, comes from a hairy hungarian/serbian/romanian swine mix. Nordics call it salo, for example, but it is common from the balkans up to russia.
Eaten as a snack while drinking or used as base for goulash or whatever. Very aromatic and tasty, but really just pure salted fat.

>>21115330
>will literally melt in your hand if you hold it there
sounds disgusting

>>21115566
No, it's why an American is mostly fat

>>21115155
You're comparing water to ice
Doesn't work

>>21116575
Literally the same thing

>>21115364
you protest too much. I have no interest in japan. but it seems to be your fetish.

>>21115604
no it doesn't lying fuck.

>>21116406
which is better.

>>21115130
>Blank is bad and I'm tired of pretending otherwise
Good to hear that you've never tried actual wagyu and are just making a shit thread about it anyways. It's a tasty and tender cut of beef, kinda pricey but still good stuff.

>>21116370
It looks delicious.

>>21116591
Yes, it does.

Buy some yourself if you're too retarded to believe me and the multiple videos online showing this exact thing happening

>>21116610
>you've never tried actual wagyu
Correct. At most, she's tried "American wagyu" with its literally inferior standards, or more likely, some nonsensical product like "wagyu ground beef" which has no standard since the concept is irrational.

Could you create something like pic related but using needles to inject fat into lean cuts of beef to achieve similar marbling?

>>21116640
Could I attach the photo to my post? No, but here it is in a reply instead.

>>21116640
No

It'll help, but you won't mimic actual wagyu.

>>21116610
Not OP, it is an experience but not something I would like to eat regularly even ignoring the inflated price. Like everything else from nipland, it is extremely overrated

>>21116640
Yes, there are videos people not being able to tell difference/which one is "better". Don't believe the wagyu shills

>>21115357
no you are getting sold trash.
The slaughterhouse sets a target weight for livestock, if an animal is over that the farmer gets a price reduction while they need a way to dispose the low quality reject cut.

bet you eat steak well done with ketchup OP

>>21115357
It's mostly fat in canada these days too

>>21115142
So you have no argument

>>21115130
the heat of the fat inflates the price

>>21115350
Yeah he hasn't experienced a cow that melted itself, why dont you answer the question

I've eaten prime steaks before that I've cooked myself so I know how much marbling was going on. On balance I liked them more than normal steaks. But it seemed like the steaks were on the edge of being "too rich". The suggestion that they need more fat to taste better is counter intuitive to me. I speculate fat in a steak is like salt. It will take your steak to 10/10, keep shaking and its 11/10, shake again and it's ruined. Would I like wagyu?

>>21115357
Cheap, fatty bacon is the best.

>>21115130
Wagyu is pretty overbred at this point. Real connoisseurs will seek out slightly leaner (but still divine) breeds that can be found across the countryside

>>21115330
I've seen a lot of puddles of melted cows on luxury ranches. They have to feed them by hand and it takes forever since cows eat so much, that's why the tender wagyu meat is so expensive.

>>21115130
company I work for took us out to a nice steakhouse as part of our performance merit reward. We all got to try some wagyu cut. I didn't like it. It tasted awful, was very undercooked which was how I was told it was meant to be consumed and the taste was just bad. Everyone made fun of me by the end of it.

>>21119354
>how I was told it was meant to be consumed
You were lied to, if anything you generally want to cook wagyu to medium instead of rare/medium rare like a normal steak.

>>21116370
salo

>>21116949
An argument would have to be made to begin with

>>21115171
it's a good joke.

>>21115171
it is a pretty good joke ngl

>>21119441
>>21121595
We get it, you're bumping the thread for attention.

>wagyu
Is this the one where japonese men in white lab coats spit sake all over the beeves and brush it into their fur? I saw a video of that somewhere.

>>21115130
The japanese are such low iq bugemen that it wraps around to being extremely efficent based retards cause they dont question shit and just do.

>>21116949
Those were the arguments. Just because you don't like the argument doesn't mean it is not one.

>>21115130
It's fucking crazy bros. When I was in Japan I just went to costco and bought wagyu in one of those meat trays for like 25 bucks and would meal prep with that. It's super tasty and they sell it in different cuts. I was eating like a king. Only problem was that gyms are really expensive for what they offer compared to the west and they're usually not equipped for big guys(in japan taller than 6'0 you're basically a giant)

>>21115130
Just had some wagyu on Saturday. It wasn't even the good stuff, it was the American stuff and even that is was delicious and buttery and super tender. If the American stuff is that could, I can't even imagine how good the high grade Japanese stuff is.

>>21121598
look, it was a good joke okay? just leave me alone....

>>21115130
>There is no way this is an acceptable cut of beef, let alone a premium one.
After a certain point, you might as well just buy hamburger with a high fat content. You can cut it with a fork and it melts in your mouth just like a wagyu steak.
I mean, obviously, if you add buns you can't cut it with a fork.

>>21116370
I use this in cooking a lot but I can rarely bring myself to eat it as a snack
t. Romanian

>>21115130
No, it's really good and hate that it's so expensive.

>>21122134
>No, it's really good and hate that it's so expensive.
You can always steal it if you live in California. If the total is less than $900 the cops won't do anything.

>>21122172
>If the total is less than $900 the cops won't do anything.
Not anymore, and no I'm from Europe.

>watch vids of jap foodies whilst in japan
>they eat le A5 wagyu
>they all say the same, that it tastes like eating "butter"

well, it does come from female cows, thus the higher fat content aka fat marbling. and butter has a distinct taste to it. salted butter probably gives you a huge "umami" effect. i've eaten butter before and got immense joy from it. but i've never had A5 nor do i want to at this point. it's one of those "trying is believing" things. only by eating it will you finally feel satisfied to conclude that it's basically like eating butter.

>>21115130
You savour it for the melt-in-your-mouth texture and rich beef flavour (I dunno what the anon saying it has no taste is smoking). It didn't ruin all beef for me, but it's a different dimension to steak that's worth trying.

>>21115130
Total meme. It's very tasty, but it's completely overrated and anyone claiming it's the best is just saying that because that's what they were told or paid for. There's hundreds of beef breeds reared in all kinds of ways and steak preparation is just as varied, it's silly that somehow the fattiest fucking one became the most popular. It really just tastes like fat and you only eat a small portion and most preparations only cook it briefly to render the fat. It just unremarkable. My favorite steak ever was an aged bistecca fiorentina. Chianina breed. Wasn't fatty, but was super flavorful. I want to try Charolais, supposed to be similarly lean.

>>21115330
>will literally melt in your hand
So these cows just have pools of liquid fat sloshing around in their muscle tissue? Think about what you're saying you absolute imbecile.

>>21123714
Again, you can do it yourself but since you'll never buy A5 im sure you'll pretend you know better anyway.

>>21123739
It is just your sweaty palms fatty

>>21124764
Im 56kg and 177cm. But whatever helps you cope with being too poor to try good beef I guess

Speck.
It's not used as a snack in Germany. More for soups and other dishes.

Man learns that retarded le haute foods with middling flavor for noveau riches and influencers are retarded le haute foods with middling flavor

Reminder that the Japs invented thousando foldsu marbling wagyu in the late 80s as a literal gimmick to save their then collapsing national beef industry
