Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the River Rocks

    Clean the Japanese river rocks thoroughly and set them aside.

  2. 2

    Heat the Rocks

    Place the river rocks on a grill or in an oven preheated to 200°C (392°F) and heat them for about 30 minutes, or until they are very hot.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Wagyu Beef

    While the rocks are heating, take the Westholme Wagyu beef and slice it into thin strips. Season the beef with sea salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Cook the Beef

    Once the rocks are hot, carefully place them on a heat-resistant platter. Arrange the Wagyu beef strips on top of the hot rocks. The beef will cook quickly due to the high heat of the rocks.

  5. 5

    Serve with Ponzu

    Drizzle ponzu sauce over the beef and garnish with freshly chopped chives. Serve immediately for the best experience.
