Oh Kobe You’re So Fine…

THIS is where it’s at.

Or so I’ve heard.

You see, I haven’t actually had the pleasure of immersing myself in a Kobe steak yet.

I think it’s because I get stuck in my ways. When I eat a steak I end up cooking my go-to cut.

And, I guess I just haven’t gotten around to trying Kobe. It’s just inertia, really.

I’ve heard such amazing things about it you’d think I would have rushed out and tried it.

I’ve heard about its incredible marbling, flavor and tenderness. This photo is of boneless ribeye. Mmmm.

I should treat myself. Okay, I will. Yeah, thanks for the encouragement!

I WILL!!!

Have YOU tried it? If you have, is it the only steak you’ll eat now?

Is Kobe Beef All It’s Cracked Up To Be?

A beautiful piece of meat to me is one of life’s greatest pleasures.

A buttery tender consistency and juicy, flavorful taste make any day worth living.

But that’s just me.

Or is it?

There are differing opinions out there as to whether Kobe beef (that Japanese delicacy) is worth the extra effort to find it, pay for it and cook it properly.

Well, I’m here to tell ya – it’s worth it, man.

These are specially-bred cattle so the price is a bit more. That’s understandable. And the finding it part? Not so difficult. You can order some American Wagyu Kobe here and have it delivered right to your door.

And the cooking? Not really any different than any other cut. It’s just that the result is much more tender and flavorful.

Read on here to see what others have to say about this topic.

And if you haven’t tried it yourself yet – treat yourself!  Think of it as an experiment.

An experiment in deliciousness.

Yeah, it’s a word.

Go forth and savor!

Man. Need. Beef.

Yeah, that headline sounds kinda cavemanish. But it’s basically been a fact since time began that men love beef.

So what better to get dear old Dad this Father’s Day than an exquisite cut of beef – or two?

I know my dad would love it. Who do you think taught me to appreciate a juicy steak?

Here are some great Father’s Day gift ideas that’ll have Dad’s mouth watering and his heart full.

Things like gift boxed Kansas City strip steaks will make him jump for joy (check them out above).

Or what about Wagyu Kobe beef steakburgers? Isn’t Father’s Day the time to break out the really good stuff?

And you can never go wrong with a gift certificate that lets Dad pick his own beefy goodies.

Like a kid in a candy store.

Think about it. But not for too long – you want it to arrive in time for Father’s Day, June 19th!

Check out all the gift options you can handle here!
