American Wagyu Gold Grade Manhattan NY Filet 8 oz.

Repeat Performance

I have ordered these fillets several times. They always have been incredibly tender and flavorful, warranting repeat orders for special event meals. My wife likes them medium rare. I cook them sous vide at 127 degrees for two hours, after thawing them in the refrigerator overnight. I have a very hot gas grill that I use for reverse searing and attractive grill marks. They come out a perfect pink throughout. I think this allows them to cook through without drying out.

Perfection.

If you are looking for the cheapest meat you can get, go to Walmart. If you are simply looking for the best, you came to the right place.

The Widow Maker

My fiance died after eating this steak. I would only cook a steak like this in a cast iron with salt and pepper. Hard sear on all sides and into the oven to a 120 degree temp. Give it a good 5-8 minute rest if you can handle waiting that long. Steak was tender, unctuous and literally dripping. A steak like this you need to activate the fat so take it to medium rare in my humble opinion. Please for everything that is good and right in the world not beyond. As a woman 4oz was more than enough of such a rich meat but obviously do you.

SRF Team : We are so happy to hear that you and your fiance enjoyed this cut!

Fatty

The meat was quite tender. However the fat was very sinewy and toothsome and not what I would expect with a wag\yu cut of meat.

Flavor Good Quality of Packaging A Concern

I received a gift card for Snake River Farms from my team for Christmas. After careful consideration I selected several different options including the Waygu Manhattan gold fillet. The beef itself looked wonderful and was vacuumed pack and frozen. I placed both filets, in the package, in a small bowl and some water to allow for a slow thaw in the fridge. To my surprise the next morning there was some blood in the water of the bowl which symbolized a leak. My 6 oz Filet was not affected however my 8oz (MY Filet) had a small hole in it where water leaked in. I had handled the meat extremely carefully and to say that the flavor was affected would be an understatement. I cooked them on a BGE utilizing a reverse dear method due to the thickness. My wife’s 6oz was extremely flavorful and tender. My 8 oz water logged $60 Filet was not. Disappointed would be an understatement and would like to hear back from SRF regarding if this has been an issue in the past.
