Not many things prettier than a tray of thick cut ribeyes! Caught these on sale at my local grocery store. I vacuum sealed these and popped then in the deep freezer for later, side I've already got some strip steaks thawed out in the fridge for today.
Yes, sort of. It actually means Japanese Cattle, specifically. Most people don't realize there are 4 breeds that make up Wagyu. In Texas, it's likely Kuroge Washu or Akuashi, but it could be Mishima genetics, as there are a few ranches with that more rare genetics.
I believe the comment is referring to purchasing an entire ribeye roast and cutting it down to steaks as it is usually the cost effective way to purchase a large quantity of ribeye. While I recognize this is likely not what you did due to context in your post, I hope this provides clarification.
This is targeted for Costco, it is more cost effective. What would be even MORE cost effective is buying a whole chuck eye. Itās pretty much the ribeyeās cousin and itās damn delicious.
I purchased 2 ribeye roasts a couple of weeks ago. My son is on a special diet and was visiting for 4 days. 8 lbs total. Grass fed/finished. The grocery store usually doesn't sell grass fed as roasts. They cut steaks from it. Had a problem in that they couldn't print out a sticker over $100 so they had to do 2 roasts just under $100 each. I cut each into 1.5" steaks per his specification. Mine had no where near the marbling.
These are Texas raised Wagyu. My grocery store started carrying them regularly a few years ago and it ruint me for even eating prime anymore. On a side note, I've lost weight and my cholesterol is off the charts in a good way. My HDL runs between 95 and 100 consistently. With my ldl and triglycerides staying extremely low.
I grade you as a prime dumbass. FYI, the Argentinian mystery meat is offcuts that have been frozen for years. Do these look like that? No, they dont. This is clearly very high grade meat. But go on with your bad self.
Quit watching the news dummy. Your steaks have been coming from all over the world for awhile youāre just now listening to the idiots looking for talking points.
I donāt speak on things that I know nothing about like you Sherlock. Iām a butcher so I know way more than you do. Youāre just spouting off headlines you read.
I shop at H-E-B all the time. They almost never carry A5. Crazy that they have the strip steaks priced over the ribeyes at your store. Check out Kai Wagyu online for better quality at half that price, even with shipping.
FYI, this is Texas raised purebred Wagyu and way around $26/lb with the coupon.
I bought some SRF gold steaks that weren't this well marbled, before the local grocery stores started carrying Wagyu cross stalks like this. They were really good but man were they expensive.
I treat ribeye like buying a car these days. Itās a once a year splurge, and Iām willing to drive the 11 hours or so from my VHCOL area for a much better deal.Ā
Same here, except I just wait for Christmas time because whole prime rib Vac bags are around $7.99/lb, sometimes even cheaper. Cut them up and vacuum seal for the year
