Marketside Wagyu Beef New York Strip Steak, 0.38 - 0.77 lb

This steak is absolutely delectable. For the price, you can't beat it. No, it is not a true Japanese Wagyu. But do you want to spend hundreds of dollars for a steak? I don't. This is similar to the real thing, and for less than $20. The fat renders so well, that the steak practically melts in your mouth. My roommate complained that she hadn't had steak in ages because she has no teeth. I cut off a slice and told her "try this, you don't even need teeth to chew it." She also loved it. I spoil myself once a month with a Wagyu from Walmart and it's delicious every time. I highly recommend a pan sear to medium rare. You cannot find a steak this good for this price, anywhere else in Ohio.

Picked up these steaks at Walmart for a backyard dinner with guests, and they were a hit! Tender, flavorful, and grilled up beautifully. Everyone enjoyed them, and several people commented on how good they were. Great quality at a fair price. I'll definitely be back for more!

This is possibly the best store bought steak I've had. This year I bought real A5 Japanese Wagyu for Christmas dinner. Over rated for $125 a pound. This is the only Wagyu I'll buy

Super tender, perfect for flash frying on a stainless steel pan or air frying. Good luck getting one of these though; they're often out of stock. But when I do get my order fulfilled, then yes these steaks from Wal-Mart rock.

Did have an at least an ounce worth of gristle in one spot. Would not have expected that much loss in such an expensive steak. Excellent flavor and tenderness otherwise !

Was really unhappy with the overall purchase. I ordered it to be part of a very large delivery. I had selected a ribeye about the size of a paperback. The estimated cost was to be around $17.00. When the order was unpacked I had help and did not notice the particulars of the purchase. Imagine my shock when I pulled it out to make steak salads and found the shopper had picked a Wagu steak nearly $29.00!! It was the same size as the 1 I had ordered but at close to twice the cost. Taste wise it was great, but the swap definitely left a bad taste in my mouth.

II don't know what makes this steak,"wagyu." There was virtually no marbling at all. As a matter of fact, there was virtually no fat anywhere. I was tender, and it tasted ok. I've had USDA Choice New York steaks that were juicier and had better marbling than this supposed "wagyu" steak. I had the order delivered, so I didn't see it until i unpacked the order.

No marbling. Unbelievable amount of gristle and tough fiber. At $27/lb it's a terrible purchase. Save your money. Never had a ribeye that was close to being this flavorless and bad.

Absolutely not worth the extra money. it was gritty and tough even though I cooked it rare, the exact same way I cook every steak. The lower cost versions generally come out way more tender and tasty than this one did. I was very disappointed.

I order online for delivery. The picture in the store catalog looked like what I expected for Wagyu. The Wagyu NY Strip I received was not nearly as marbled as the catalog picture. I do not think this is really Wagyu beef.
