I'd wanted to try wagyu beef for some time just to see what the hype was about. Driving to Alpine for an appointment, Grazing Star Ranch met me during a significant snowstorm, personally delivering several pounds of guaranteed goodness, one hundred percent full blood wagyu.
The last few years I've stepped up my food game, choosing fresh local goodness. I see it as an investment in health.
And I'm hooked.
I ration my packets; this is a real treat. I drool typing.
I've read all the descriptions: umami, buttery, good fats, juicy deliciousness. To all these descriptive I say YES!!! A big hearty yes!
Whipping out my cast iron skillet I made primo hamburgers. I'd picked up fresh mushrooms, as I'd been told wagyu is extra juicy and I wanted to utilize every ounce of juice. Once my burgers were ready and set aside covered in foil, I tossed sliced mushrooms in the skillet and let wagyu fat work its magic. I then toasted my whole grain bread in the remaining fat, along with a pat of butter.
Oh, my goodness.
Descriptions really don't do justice. I can't explain the taste.
Ambrosia.
Maggie Rose the Schnauzer even got in on the deal, a tiny bit, as mama was selfish.
She and I? We are blessed and we know it.
Happy happy!!
