I've heard of Kobe beef, which is both Japanese and extremely expensive.

 

But WAGYU?? Sounds like it's part of the dog.

 

 

Okay. I just went and looked it up. It's like champagne, or cognac. If it did not come from Champagne or from cognac, then it can legally only be called sparkling wine or brandy.

 

If this did not come from Kobe, it cannot be Kobe beef. The same breed of cow raised the same way is wagyu beef, which apparently means Japanese cow.

  • Dirty Dog Doug changed the title to BeeF prices are up ... but $69 pound is CRazy

Waygu...the most expensive (possibly most tender)

 

It is what our NM Gov was spending the budget set aside for NM events to promote NM.

She instead was buying this, alchahol and other items with that money.

Oh...also a doggie door and carpet cleaning from HER dogs messes at the Gov mansion.

Nice, huh?

Japanese Wagyu is mongo expensive and the same as Kobe beef. But there is American Wagyu for less $. It is crossbred with angus. But the regulations on calling something Wagy seem to be lax in this country. 
if you look at Kobe or Wagyu you can see the amazing marbling.

I find it interesting that the nation which hardly ate any beef at all before WWII, now produces the top of the line.

Kobe and Wagyu same stuff.  And that isn't that much more than it was when I was in Japan 45 years ago, if you adjust for normal increases.

I ate swamp donkey 'til I moved to Chicago.  Mom would get them when they were eating the flowers in the front yard.  No shortage of them in Wisconsin by the UP a couple miles up the road.

On one of the Food Network competition shows, I think it was a High End Chopped competition, one of the contestants was from a Las Vegas place that specialized in Wagyu beef.  I looked it up online, checked the menu.  It was $100 per OUNCE, with a 5 ounce (might have been 4 ounce) minimum.

For those prices I’ll stick with Mi speed beef , venison that’s lived off the local farms wheat and soybeans 

During the 61-65 War, Union foragers referred to domestic pigs as Slow Deer.

A local name for a deer (big ears) and lived in the swamp. No shortage of fat women in the UP however.  Not bad tasting once you get the mud vein out and deep fried. :-)
