Lloyd90 509 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Tried the burgers just found them very fatty! If you want a proper good steak dry aged is the way to go and ALDI at the moment have some pretty good ones. Go in and they're the Aberdeen Angus dry aged steaks in a cardboard cover. About £5.70 each but bloody lovely steaks! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 21,288 Posted March 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 I had a wagyu fillet last night. £40, it was bloody good, is it better than a regular good fillet.....I'm not convinced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackdog92 2,047 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Ive done one of those taste test days with the missus and the most notable diffrence is the price imo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Slow cookers are the best invention ever for healthy economic cooking. Nothing better that coming home from work to a meal ready and waiting. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TAXI DRIVER 549 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 It seems a big waste of money to me.They`re a certain breed of cattle and are fed a little beer everyday.To me it`s just a money making exercise but snobby people will always bye the most expensive thing on the menu etc if it`s fashionable. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't say I'm a snob! I do sort of agree about it being a money making gimmick. I had the fillet and it was excellent, prob one of the best fillets iv ever had...but...iv had other 'normal' fillets that were up there with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 12,439 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 I've eaten some good beef over the years wagyu is a fad imo. I spend probaby 50notes a month buying good meat from the butcher's to cook at home and it is always better then the restaurants except when paying over the top in a good one. The one time this was not true was when I ordered the wagyu and had my wallet raped Quote Link to post Share on other sites
green lurchers 16,385 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 wagyu is a pretender ive give it a go well overpriced but nowhere in the league of well sourced kobe 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
