Step-by-Step Cooking Guide
1. Proper Thawing
Before cooking, make sure your Kosher Wagyu beef is fully thawed. For best results, thaw it in the fridge for 24-48 hours. Avoid the microwave—it can ruin the texture and flavor.
2. Simple Seasoning
Wagyu’s rich flavor needs little seasoning. Use kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. For an extra touch, try garlic and herb butter.
3. Preheat Your Pan
Use a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan. Preheat it over medium-high heat until it’s hot. A few drops of water should sizzle immediately—that’s how you know it’s ready.
4. Sear the Beef
Add a bit of oil with a high smoke point, like canola or avocado. Sear the beef for 2-3 minutes on each side. A good sear will give you a golden crust and keep the inside tender.
5. Finish in the Oven
For thicker cuts, finish the beef in the oven at 375°F (190°C). Transfer the beef after searing and cook for another 5-10 minutes, depending on your preferred doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy:
- Medium-rare: 130-135°F (54-57°C)
- Medium: 140-145°F (60-63°C)
6. Let It Rest
Let the beef rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This keeps the juices in, ensuring a flavorful bite.
