Australian Wagyu Filet Mignon Steak

Shop Australian Wagyu filet when you want the most tender steak with a clean, lean bite. Filet (tenderloin) has less fat than ribeye or striploin, but Australian Wagyu genetics give it a softer texture and more juice than a standard filet. If you like a steak that cuts like butter, sears fast, and tastes clean, australian wagyu filet is the move.

What do A5, BMS and marble score mean?

Japanese A5 is the top grade in Japan. Marbling is scored on the 12-point BMS scale, and A5 requires BMS 8–12. Most of our Japanese cuts are BMS 11.

Australian beef uses the AUS-MEAT marble score, which tops out at 9+. 9+ is the highest possible Australian marble score, and many of our Full Blood cuts are graded 9+.

Richer marbling means smaller portions: 4–5 oz of A5 per person, 7–8 oz of Australian BMS 9+, 8–10 oz of American or lower-BMS cuts. The full BMS guide

What is Australian Wagyu?

Australian Wagyu comes from Wagyu cattle bred and raised in Australia. Most Australian Wagyu is crossbred. Full Blood is the top tier: 100% Wagyu genetics with no crossbreeding. For how the two compare, see Fullblood vs crossbred Wagyu.

Full Blood and purebred, from respected farms

We source Australian Wagyu from some of Australia's most respected farms, including Stone Axe, Margaret River and Sir Harry. Full Blood means 100% Wagyu genetics. Purebred means Wagyu bred up over several generations from Full Blood sires, under Australian Wagyu Association rules. Every product page shows the marble score of that cut.

What does "marble score 9+" mean?

Australian beef is graded on the AUS-MEAT marbling scale, which tops out at 9+. A 9+ score is the highest marble score possible for Australian beef. Japanese A5 is graded on a different 12-point scale (BMS), so a "9+" Australian steak is not the same as a BMS 9 Japanese steak.

Australian Wagyu vs Japanese A5

Japanese A5 is one of the most heavily marbled beef grades, served in small slices, 4 to 5 oz per person. Full Blood Australian Wagyu is marbled and buttery but beefier, and you can eat it like a steak: 7 to 8 oz per person at BMS 9+. To taste the two side by side, try our Ribeye Experience Box (Japanese A5 vs Full Blood Australian, $250).

Which Australian cut?

  • Full Blood Ribeye (16 oz, $125): the most marbled of our Australian cuts. Serves two.
  • Full Blood Striploin (16 oz, $95): our #6 seller. Classic steakhouse texture.
  • Full Blood Filet Mignon (8 oz, $90): our #4 seller. The most tender.
  • Full Blood Denver (8 oz, $60): big flavor at a friendly price.
  • Australian Tomahawk (32 oz, $195): a showpiece for the grill. Serves four to five.
