Cheap Wagyu A5 vs Expensive Grass-fed
Expensive Grass-fed vs Cheap Wagyu A5
I often associate price with quality. If something costs more it must be better right?
Wagyu A5 is notoriously expensive. But there is a lot of variance in price based on the cut. For example a wagyu A5 filet mignon could cost +$200/lb, while the top round in this video was closer to just $70/lb.
The same concept applies to grass-fed beef. The grass-fed steak in this video has wagyu genetics, but since the cow only ate grass during its life, it’s technically considered “grass-fed”.
Despite a similar price the wagyu A5 top round was the clear winner on every metric. But keep in mind this is just my opinion, I highly recommend keeping an open mind!
My final takeaway is that perhaps the higher end cuts of wagyu A5 may not always be worth it when more affordable cuts taste just as good. In fact, I’d probably prefer eating this A5 top round over an A5 ribeye most days of the week!

@@thassalantekreskel5742 looks like a 300-ish grams steak so i'd say around 0.7 to 0.8 pound ye but in my opinion it's not as worth. I mean, wagyu has an awesome taste, it's very tender but it makes u full a lot quicker due to the higher amout of fat. So ye for special ocasions, even the price being high, fuck it, its once in a while, but not for daily consumption, atleast not 4 me

You’ve had to find expensive Grass Fed Beef to compare it to the cheapest Wagyu Beef… Meanwhile, everyone knows that after a point the return on quality is so diminished, you’re wasting money going for expensive versions of something you can get £10-£20 less/KG.
He says one is ultra expensive but then proceeds to say they both work out to $70/lb

A5 wagyu is overall really expensive. But the top round cut is a cheap cut because it's known for being very lean and no fat. So in other words: It's not tender. But when it comes to A5 wagyu those rules don't seem to apply. Point being that even getting your hands on a cheap cut of A5 wagyu is "worth it", compared to an overrated extremely over-prized grass-fed

I don’t know why, but every time I’ve had wagyu in the States has been, while not bad, not what I expected. The best wagyu I’ve had, i.e. buttery and melted in my mouth, was at a rooftop bar in Saigon in a bowl of pho.

Grain fed beef will always be more tender because there is more intramuscular fat. However the cows are fed chemical pumped grains and are kept in tiny enclosures or packed in to a small paddock like sardines. Grass Fed beef is far superior for nutrient content and omega 3 etc. Always go for the Grass Fed option . It's better for us and them .
But a5 wagyu is actually the highest graded. C1 would be the cheapest grade of wagyu

It’s expensive for grass fed, and the wagyu is cheap for wagyu. A nice wagyu is hundreds of dollars or more a lb and normal grass fed is $20 a lb or so. So a really expensive grass fed and really cheap Wagyu end up being the same price

$3640.00 dollars per year or 52 weeks at $70.00 per lb. No, Time for Whole Horse meatballs for the price of an Adoption fee or $1.00 dollar in my area.
Corn fed beef tastes better overall. As long as it prime.
So, any wagyu piece beat most beef cuts.😂

@@AveryGreenblatt No problem. The selling point for grass fed is that the nutrient profile of the meat changes a bit. So where you see people argue for carnivore diet, they would be right if they ate meat from cows exclusively grass fed, not grain finished. That's expensive af though.

Wow this grass fed stuff is deffinetly way diffrent from normal beef
The point of grass fed and grass finished, is not taste but rather health and more nutrients the goal is also avoiding all the negatives of grain and high omega 6 that animals store in their fat. Too much of what we eat now days is made from grains cause its cheap..
