    Kobe is Wagyu but American raised Wagyu is not Kobe beef...right? So, from my understanding, the stuff Yamamoto raises is not Kobe.

    Anyway that strip steak looks great and I am anxious to try some.

      I tried this with a Prime 1 strip steak from HEB. It was good but could not tell the difference between it and a Choice strip from HEB. What is the difference between Prime1 and Prime and is that the same? I know Prime is supposed to be better than Choice but have been disappointed a few times paying a higher price and not seeing the difference in taste or tenderness.

        I cook all my steaks in an smoking hot iron skillet for about 2 minutes per side. I never merinate mine, just a little salt, pepper and garlic powder. Never have any complaints. If anyone ever wants one more than rare I will put it in the oven for a few minutes extra to get to medium or well done.

          Central market has it for $50 a lbs all the time.
          Whenever I'm feeling flush I'll grab a quarter pound to treat me and the misses.

          Central market is HEB's version of Whole Foods

            No Wagyu raised in America is going to be true Japanese beef for obvious reasons. A alot of Domesticated Japanese style beef is Angus bulls covering Akaushi (red/brown Wagyu) female cows. At HeartBrand they use domestic Akaushi bulls and cows to get a purebred domestic Japanese style beef. Pretty sure they brought over their original genetics from Japan in the early '90s

              I only buy prime from behind the glass at HEB. I like getting there early in the day and will pick out the best steaks. The selection dwindles in the late afternoon and evening. At those prices, if I can’t find good looking steaks, I will pass. On occasion the prime they have out looks like it should have been graded as choice.

                HEB Prime1 is USDA Prime beef that has been dry aged for 14 days. That's the only difference.
