Japanese Wagyu

Miyazaki Filet Steak | BMS 11 | 8 oz

Three-Time Winner of Japan's Wagyu Olympics. Now in Its Most Tender Cut.

Miyazaki Wagyu has claimed Japan's national wagyu competition three consecutive times, earning the title of Nation's Beef — a record no other prefecture has matched. The cattle behind that designation are Tajima-gyu bloodline, raised for a minimum of 30 months under a prefecture-monitored program in Kyushu, producing a consistency in marbling and quality that has made Miyazaki the most awarded wagyu region in Japan. This 8oz filet is graded BMS 11, placing it at the very top of what that award-winning program produces, in the most prized cut on the animal.

JPGA Certified | Full Traceability Guaranteed

Every cut of Miyazaki A5 Wagyu we carry is certified by the Japan Prefectural Gyusho Association (JPGA) and backed by an individual cattle certificate included with your order. The cattle ID number on that certificate traces your beef directly back to the specific animal, farm, and bloodline it came from. This is the same traceability infrastructure that governs Japan's domestic beef market, and it is the most definitive proof available that what you are receiving is genuine, prefecture-verified Miyazaki wagyu.

What BMS 11 Actually Means

Japanese A5 Wagyu is graded on a marbling scale of 1 to 12. A BMS score of 11 places this filet at the highest tier commercially available. The intramuscular fat at this level is fine, dense, and evenly distributed throughout the muscle — producing the melt-in-your-mouth texture and layered umami depth that defines authentic A5 wagyu at its absolute peak.

Grade: A5 (Yield Grade A + Quality Grade 5)

 BMS: 11

 Cut: Filet (Tenderloin) 

Weight: 8oz 

Origin: Miyazaki Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan 

Certification: JPGA Certificate included 

Traceability: Individual cattle ID

Why Miyazaki A5 Filet at BMS 11 Is Exceptionally Rare

The tenderloin is the least-worked muscle on the animal, naturally carrying less intramuscular fat than a ribeye or striploin. Reaching BMS 11 in a filet requires an animal of exceptional genetics and a feeding program of exceptional consistency. Miyazaki's three-time national championship record is the direct result of that program operating at the highest level, year after year. At BMS 11, the filet delivers the full depth of Miyazaki's award-winning flavor profile through the cleanest, most delicate cut the animal offers — a combination that is as rare in the market as it is exceptional on the plate.

Production at this grade and cut is extremely limited. BMS 11 filet portions represent only a fraction of what an already tightly controlled prefectural program produces annually.

How to Cook

Instruction
1. Prepare the Steak

Remove the Miyazaki A5 Wagyu Filet Steak from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30-45 minutes. This step ensures even cooking.

2. Preheat Your Grill or Pan

Preheat your grill or a cast iron skillet over high heat.

3. Cook the Filet Steak

Place the steak on the hot grill or skillet. Sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, targeting an internal temperature of around 130°F (54°C). Avoid pressing down on the steak to retain its juices.

4. Rest the Steak

Once cooked, remove the Filet steak from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a tender and flavorful steak.

5. Slice and Serve

Slice the steak against the grain for maximum tenderness. Serve on a warm plate, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of high-quality olive oil.
