Title: Arby's: Wagyu?
Post by: MuggsyB on May 23, 2022, 01:25:39 PM
Apparently they are offering a 52% Wagyu burger.

I am afraid to know what the other 48% is.

So is the whole "Wagyu" thing going down the same road as "Angus" did?

Fancy way of describing fatty beef, excuse me, marbled beef.

You can wash that burger down with Arby's new exclusive Urine Milkshake.

I wonder how much is actually "Waygu" and how much is the crossbred Waygu strains that aren't actually Waygu.

Same as places calling items "Kobe beef" when Kobe beef is only grown/raised/exported from Japan and certainly isn't being served at any mass market price

I'm not sure but I know American Wagyu is not the same as Japanese Wagyu.  Whatever the  cut they have in Tuscany would be my preference over all steaks.  It's some sort of Florentine ribeye with great marble and ample thickness.  It's a serious steak but not a con or insanely expensive.

I've had all three and the Japanese Wagyu/Kobe is leaps and bounds better than the hybrid they raise in Washington.

The Florentine steak... I ordered one while there and the waiter joking called me a savage.  I guess it was meant for two people.  Still ate it all.

I think the best steak I've ever had was in Siena .  But yes, it was gargantuan and it was split among three people.  Good effort Hards to take that down.

I think there are  under 10 restaurants in the US that are certified to sell authentic Kobe beef.

You don't want more than an ounce of two of the stuff.  It's like eating meat butter. 

I had an ounce of japanese and an ounce of us.

I think it works best as an app

Had it at the SW Steakhouse at the Wynn. $600 for an 8 oz ribeye (for the table of 4). I didn't pay for it.

Sounds like it’s safe to say that Arby’s is running a scam or this needs to be priced at $100 plus if it were the real deal. But if there is no legal definition of Waygu, then I guess it is buyer beware. Maybe they just grind in some left over fat trimmings, name some cows Waygu and call it Waygu steak. 

Seriously, seems like something to be avoided, unless cardiac decease, stroke, and heart attack are desired by the eater. If so, double down on them. Who are we to judge.

It's Arby's so all of this applies regardless.

Had nearly the same experience. I don’t get the allure at all.

Manatee wagyu is the best.

I like it smoked with some sea lettuce on the side.  Served with Arby's sauce and horsey sauce.

12 hours at 250*, use Applewood pellets.  Mmmmmm.

It's a Florida taste treat. Almost better than alligator.

Needs to be force fed lots of lettuce though.

The vilification, vitriol, and stinging personal attacks of the mighty manatee population is reprehensible.  They are innocent of any wrongdoing of any kind and must be protected.  They also have swagger but are not arrogant like humans.  They are unique, special, and those who trifle with them will regret it.

Excuse me. They poop in our waterways, thereby polluting our drinking water and contribute to additional phosphates and ultimately global warming.

The mighty manatee obstructs our waterways, damaging our boat propellers and interfering with our constitutionally guaranteed right of freedom of movement.

And I won’t go to the millions of dollars we are spending on lettuce to feed those damn manatees. Granted it is Florida and our state is swimming in cash, but feeding those damn manatees may break us. And we’re not feeding them wilted lettuce!
