That’s an awesome comparison, being able to try it all on one plate, looks awesome!

The waygu meats are super fatty/tender with very good flavor.

I’m sure tony can talk in greater detail, but I’d expect all three of those to be super tender with good marbalizing each will be a little different in texture and flavor.

Compare to a cheap steak from the grocery store, you’re missing the marbalization so it’s chewier with less flavor throughout.

I do enjoy beef and bison there is a local farm that also sells yak meat and it is fantastic...higher in iron, protein, minerals, Omega-3s, CLA, etc while being lower in saturated fat, cholesterol, and calories.

Most people who enjoy bison tend to enjoy yak meat as well...has more of a milder, sweeter flavor, not gamey at all.

That being said, I still would love to order that flight of Wagyu

Like Chris was saying, the meat you would buy at the store is a lot chewier, and far less marbeling. The Japanese A5 literally melts when you put it in your mouth. Lots of fat, so their is a ton of flavor, and really don't even need a knife to cut it.

As you go left to right on the board, it goes down slightly in quality, but they are all very good.

Regular menu price for 4oz of A5 is $68, then it is $17 per additional oz. Compared to the Texas raised version, it is $65 for 6 oz.

had some prime bone in NY steaks for dinner tonight - cooked them in the Green mountain pellet smoker on mesquite/oak - then quick sear on super hot gas grill. They were magnificent.

Sounds similar to how I cooked my last beef tenderloin, 2hrs over pecan and a quick sear over open fire (same pecan)
