JAPANESE A5 WAGYU FILLET STEAK

Japanese A5 Wagyu Beef Fillet

BMS 8-12 (Exceptional)

A5 Wagyu denotes the very top grade of all Wagyu beef produced in Japan, often hailed as 'the best beef in the world', a label attained due to its melt-in-the-mouth texture and exceptional umami flavour.

Raised by hand in a respectful and devoted manner in the pristine mountainous and forest-rich lands of Japan. Their stress-free, nurturing and nutrient-packed diet is responsible for the incredible flavoured intramuscular marbled fat.

Our A5 fillet steaks, or tournedos, are cut from the centre of a whole A5 fillet. We also offer the thinner end, cut into fillet mignons and the chateaubriand, which is taken from the broader end of the fillet and is perfect for cooking whole and then sharing. Each steak has had all outer fat removed and is carefully sculptured to offer the highest meat ratio and best value possible.

The steaks are cut and then rapidly frozen to -28° in a matter of minutes. This process offers two significant advantages, one being zero food waste and the other helping to keep the meat in amazing condition. Red meat naturally discolours after a few hours, so blast freezing is the ultimate way to keep the steak as fresh as it is when first cut.

Cooking Wagyu Fillet Steaks

Fillet steak naturally renders less fat when cooking compared to sirloin/ribeye, to prevent singeing the outside of the steak the addition of sunflower/vegetable oil, or for perfect results, Wagyu Fat, is essential.
