Australian Wagyu

Purebred Australian Wagyu Denver Steak, BMS 9

This 8 oz Denver steak is Purebred Australian Wagyu sourced from some of Australia's most respected farms, such as Stone Axe, Margaret River and Sir Harry, graded BMS 9, one step below the top Australian grade of 9+. Purebred Wagyu is bred up over four generations with Full Blood Wagyu sires. It's the same tender, well-marbled underblade cut as our Full Blood Denver, at a lower price.

Full Blood vs Purebred: this Purebred Denver is graded BMS 9. Our Full Blood Australian Wagyu Denver Steak, BMS 9+ has 100% Japanese Wagyu genetics and BMS 9+.

What BMS 9 Means

The Australian Wagyu grading scale runs from 1 to 9+, with BMS 9 representing the upper boundary of exceptional marbling. At this level, intramuscular fat is densely and evenly distributed throughout the muscle in the fine, uniform pattern that separates genuine high-grade wagyu from every other beef category. In a Denver steak — a cut that already carries a naturally high marbling density for a secondary muscle — BMS 9 in purebred wagyu pushes that baseline into territory that rivals the premium loin cuts in richness while delivering a flavor profile that is distinctly more complex and mineral-forward.

Grade: Purebred Wagyu, BMS 9 

Cut: Denver Steak (Chuck Roll, Serratus Ventralis)

Weight: 8oz 

Origin: Australia

Genetics: Purebred Wagyu

Why Purebred Wagyu Denver Steak at BMS 9 Belongs in a Different Conversation

The Denver steak is cut from the serratus ventralis, a muscle deep within the chuck roll that carries one of the highest natural marbling densities of any secondary cut on the animal. In conventional beef that marbling makes it an overachiever relative to its position on the carcass. In purebred wagyu at BMS 9 it becomes something genuinely exceptional. The fine, evenly distributed fat that high-percentage wagyu genetics produce at this grade threads through the Denver's tight, uniform grain in a way that delivers richness, tenderness, and concentrated beef flavor simultaneously. The result is a cut with the bold, mineral-forward character of a working muscle elevated by fat quality that crossbred wagyu at any grade cannot match. At 8oz it is the ideal portion for a cut of this intensity — substantial enough to satisfy, focused enough to appreciate in full. For wagyu eaters who want to explore beyond the standard loin cuts without sacrificing grade or eating quality, the Denver steak at this level is the most compelling option the Australian wagyu category offers.

2. Preheat the Skillet

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

3. Sear the Steak

Place the steak in the hot skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side to develop a rich, brown crust.

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

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.

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.

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.
