Not your typical wagyu. This beef is locally sourced from pure Japanese wagyu cows raised on a small farm in Iwate Prefecture.

Beef Burgers Recipe Instructions
Defrost the burgers in the fridge overnight or in cold water for at least 2 hours.
There are two patties per pack, separated by a sheet. Only high-quality beef is used, so there is no need to season with spices or mix with pork meat. All you need is freshly ground pepper and sea salt.
Set the fry-pan to medium heat. Make sure to flip the burgers often so they cook evenly. Slightly press the burgers with a spatula during cooking to speed up the cooking process.
You know the burger is done when there is no pink juice running out when you press the burger slightly. These patties are not made from trimmings or offcuts. Only the whole chuck of beef is used. You can enjoy the burger medium-rare. There is no safety concern.
Allow the burgers to rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Use high-quality natural buns.
A high-quality gourmet burger does not need heavy seasoning or sauces. We use freshly cut tomatoes and quality pickles.
Enjoy the finest, safest, and highest quality burgers, right at home with your family in Japan.
