/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I would definitely really enjoy it if I got my hands on a piece but it's not worth to pay that much for food

It's worth trying for a special occasion.

It's not worth buying every week or month unless you're quite wealthy.

Ate an entire A5 ribeye and vomited afterwards due to the large amount of fat

>>16550924
You're not supposed to eat that much in one sitting.

On the 3 occasions I've eaten it I ate probably 4-6 ounces at most.

>>16550909
Better to eat at a restaurant first.

i don't get how it isn't considered animal abuse
imagine if you did this to yourself

>>16550909
it's good, but not worth it. The price they ask for is fucking absurd, even for a very good steak.

>>16551083
because the cow breed is predisposed to this kind of intramuscular fats, it has nothing to do with some unhealthy force-fed diet like you see with foie gras.

>>16551083
bruh, they're just normal cows, and in many cases see better treatment/care than cows in western countries.

What do you even mean by "Imagine if you did this to yourself"... what the fuck do you think they are doing to the cow?

>>16550909
very aburappoi.
recommend eating in small portions

>>16550909
>worth it?
$300 for per serving, with the only discernable difference being texture?

Not unless you're a millionaire.

>>16551120
you don't have to order at a high-end resturaunt.

Wholesale cost can be under $100/lbs

>>16551134
>A5
>Kagoshima Wagyu
That's a different price.
Kagoshima Kuroushi Wagyu
https://www.ja-kuroushi.net/SHOP/100-1202.html

>>16551222
That's an individual serving, AND it's BMS 10+ (A5 wagyu only requires BMS 8+)

So you're paying a hefty premium.


Again, a primal cut at wholesale pricing is always going to be cheaper.

>>16551251
>BMS 12
thats literally all fat

>>16551349
that's kinda the point of Wagyu isn't it? its supposed to be for special occasions not an everyday type thing...

>>16551134
>you don't have to order at a high-end resturaunt.
I wouldn't trust any cook with that kind of meat other than myself. If you think differently you don't belong on /ck/

>>16550909
It's good and worthwhile as like a once a year thing at most, and even then only a little bit. Basically just an incredibly indulgent treat worthy of a very special occasion.

>>16551366
any tips on how to cook it properly? I'm buying some for a special occasion and I've never cooked it before.

>>16551375
I like to boil mine like I learned from the ‘rents
Boiled vegetables to go with it usually. Save a pot and do it all in one container

>>16551367
dont get me wrong a little fat is flavour but that one seems like overkill, does more fat = higher price?

>>16551083
>imagine if you did this to yourself
I do do this to myself

>>16551366
I've cooked A5 on several occasions, it's honestly not all that difficult to prepare.

Season it with salt and pepper, cook to medium to render the internal fats.

>>16551416
Don't give a shit about how "easy" people claim it is. Chefs and cooks are terrible at cooking steaks. Doesn't matter if it's cheap or fine dining.

>>16551443
> Chefs and cooks are terrible at cooking steaks.
So who is good at cooking a steak? Medical doctors?

>>16551443
If you're not confident searing a steak and getting the doneness you want, sure don't try to do with with A5 wagyu.

But if you're used to cooking steaks and have confidence in your steaks, then there is no reason to be afraid of A5 wagyu just because it's expensive.

>Have a beer.
>Get a massage
>Go to bed
>Take an occasional walk

>>16551411
so are these cows hammered all day or are they too big and fat to feel any alcoholic effect?

>>16551486
idk go ask your mother

>>16551446
>So who is good at cooking a steak? Medical doctors?
I am.

On my stove I can get it however I want. Blue, rare, medium-rare, you name it.

>>16551676
Well done?

About steak cooking, I cooked one with an induction kitchen, shit was insane, the sear was quick and intense. I've never seen anything get anywhere close to that.

>>16551698
Shut up fagusea, your ceramic stove will never make you a real chef

>>16551712
I have gas stove at home and the induction one BTFO's it at cooking steak by a wide margin.

This is what I think about Wagyu girls

>>16551690
>Well Done?
I don't think it was that good,
sounds badly done

>>1655172
induction is cool until you try to lower the heat lol

>>16553426
What do you mean?

It's starting to get to the point where it's no longer meat, just some weird type of cheese.

>>16551092
He thought that was semen between the meat.

>>16553521
>it's no longer meat, just some weird type of cheese.

Odd parallel but I see your point. Add so good dense rye bread and some mustard, that could be a thing on it's own.
