How to Cook

Instruction
1. Prepare the Steak

Remove the Wagyu tri-tip from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.

2. Preheat the Skillet

Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.

3. Sear the Steak

Place the tri-tip in the hot skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until a rich, brown crust forms.

4. Check the Temperature

Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, aim for 130°F (54°C) before removing it from the skillet.

5. Rest the Steak

Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute and keep the meat tender.

6. Slice and Serve

Slice the tri-tip against the grain with a sharp knife. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh thyme if desired, to fully enjoy its melt-in-your-mouth texture and robust flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Your Wagyu Meat Delivered?

Your order ships frozen via FedEx 2nd Day Air or FedEx Overnight, Monday through Thursday, for weekday delivery. Orders placed by 12 PM PT ship the same day; Thursday shipments go overnight only. Orders of $250 or more ship free by FedEx 2nd Day Air.

Each shipment is packed in an insulated cooler with ice gel packs. The beef usually arrives frozen. Slight thawing in transit is normal, does not affect quality, and the beef can be safely refrozen, though each refreeze slightly reduces quality, so thaw only what you plan to cook.

Every cut is blast frozen and vacuum sealed before it ships. In Los Angeles, same-day delivery is available: text your concierge at (310) 683-7078.

Where Does Our Wagyu Meat Come From?

We name the origin of every cut. Our Japanese A5 Wagyu comes from Miyazaki, Kagoshima and Hyogo (Kobe Wine), and our Australian Wagyu from established Australian farms, named on each product page. We work directly with farms and their long-standing distributors, and every Japanese A5 order ships with its certificate of authenticity.

Every cut is labeled with its origin and grade, Japanese A5 orders include a certificate of authenticity, and our concierge can help you choose by text at (310) 683-7078. Every order arrives perfect, and if anything isn't right, we will always make it right.

What Should I Do If There Is a Problem with My Order?

Is Your Wagyu Meat Grass-Fed?

Wagyu calves start on pasture and grass, then move to a long grain-finishing period of rice straw, corn and barley that builds Wagyu marbling. Japanese A5 cattle are typically grain-finished for well over a year. Australian Wagyu feeding varies by farm and is listed on each product page.
