American Wagyu Black Grade Corned Beef Brisket

Size and quality was inconsistent

I purchased two Wagyu corned beefs and received them promptly and well-packed. Unfortunately, one corned beef was the size and thickness of my hand and weighed 1.3 pounds. The other was much larger and weighed 3.8 pounds and was mostly not marbled as Wagyu should be. I've cooked Wagyu many times before, large and small quantities, but never a piece of Wagyu beef that needed to cook low and slow that was so thin and tiny. (I don't steam!) Needless to say, after smoking at a temp of 215-225 degrees for a few hours, the tiny hand-sized corned beef, even while wrapped, ended up hammered and leathery by the time the internal temp was 165 (I was hoping to get it to the 185 + range). The second, larger, corned beef with the lack of marbling ended up reaching 175 degrees before it dried out and turned to leather. Perhaps the product description should say 'Do not smoke these tiny baby hand-sized flats on smoker or you'll be wasting your money.' I won't be buying them again. It's cheaper for me to order Pastrami Sandwich kits from Zingerman's and I don't have to wake up at 2:30 in the morning to fire up the smoker.

So good!

I cooked the corned beef roast exactly as instructed and it turned out so tender and flavorful. Perhaps a bit too much fat on it. The leftovers made wonderful sandwiches.

Corned beef

I must say I was sorely disappointed. I can’t believe I paid $59.00 each for two 2.5 pound cuts of corned beef that turned out to be less than great. Last year I bought your product at Costco and it was wonderful! How disappointing!

Disappointed

Corned beef was terrible. Cooked per instructions and honestly was not good. I like other items from srf.
