Snow Striploin 8 Oz. (a5 Japanese Wagyu) Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Remove the A5 Japanese Wagyu Striploin from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

2. 2

   Season the Steak

   Generously season both sides of the steak with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, pressing the seasoning into the meat.

3. 3

   Preheat the Pan

   Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over high heat for about 5 minutes until it is very hot.

4. 4

   Sear the Steak

   Add the unsalted butter to the hot skillet. Once melted and bubbling, place the seasoned steak in the skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on one side until a nice crust forms.

5. 5

   Add Aromatics

   Flip the steak and add the garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, basting the steak with the melted butter and juices using a spoon.

6. 6

   Check Doneness

   Use a meat thermometer to check for desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).

7. 7

   Rest the Steak

   Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

8. 8

   Serve

   Slice the steak against the grain and serve immediately, optionally garnished with a sprinkle of sea salt.
