Sous Vide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n You’re probably asking right now, can I sous vide Wagyu steak? Well, you can absolutely sous-vide A5 Wagyu steaks<\/strong>. It’s like giving your beef a spa treatment!<\/p>\n\n\n\nWith this cooking method, you vacuum-seal the Wagyu steak and let it soak in a water bath at a low, controlled temperature. Then, you finish it with a quick pan sear for that perfect crust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reverse Searing <\/h3>\n\n\n\n How the Reverse Sear method works is you slow-cook your Wagyu in the oven at medium-high heat, like 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Cook it until it’s almost at the doneness you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, bam! Hit it on a hot grill or pan to get that gorgeous sear outside while keeping the Wagyu steak juicy inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stir-frying <\/h3>\n\n\n\n For quick and delightful bites, stir-frying is the way to go! Thinly slice the Wagyu, and toss it in a hot wok or cast-iron pan with veggies and spices. Cook them over high heat for four to five minutes, and voil\u00e0! You’ve got a stir-fry masterpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hot Stone Cooking <\/h3>\n\n\n\n This is a wilderness survival method. Fans of Hazen Audel and the Ultimate Survival know what I mean. It’s all about heating a big stone or rock (in an oven, in this case) to a very high temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then lay those thin Wagyu slices on top. You can adopt this if you’d like to let your guests cook their own meat at the table. It’s like a gourmet interactive experience!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tataki Method <\/h3>\n\n\n\n If we’re talking about a Wagyu steak from Japan, we need to ask the Japanese how they cook it. So I got a lead on the tataki method. This is a cool Japanese technique for lightly searing beef over high heat in a pan. Then you can marinate the Wagyu steak briefly, slice the steaks, and serve with a dipping sauce. With this method, you’ll have your taste buds dancing in delight.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nConclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Wagyu beef is deservedly the world’s most expensive steak. So it needs every care in the world while cooking to preserve all the precious marbling in the steak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are rules to this. You don’t take a raw Wagyu steak straight to the fire or over direct heat. You need to block off the intramuscular fat pores with a quick pan searing. Then you can finish it off on a grill, oven, or even on the pan (but for a longer searing time than I suggested earlier).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aside from the pan searing and grilling method, there are a few other ways to cook the Japanese Wagyu steak. But adhere to the rules so you don’t let all the good fat escape, create a mess, and then cause a flare-up in your grill. Remember, no matter which method you choose, treat that Wagyu beef with love. Bring it to room temperature before cooking, and don’t forget to sprinkle some salt and pepper to bring out the taste.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Sourced from high-quality Japanese cattle, Wagyu steak is composed of a lot of intramuscular fat. But, because of the high amount of juicy fat (largely monounsaturated good fat), you don’t start cooking Wagyu beef directly over flames without serious flare-ups. To get the best result, start by searing it in a pan to lock in […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20772,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"table_tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20766"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20766"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20766\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21132,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20766\/revisions\/21132"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20772"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20766"},{"taxonomy":"table_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pitmastercentral.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/table_tags?post=20766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
