The Dish: How Snake River Farms is bringing Wagyu beef from Japan to the masses in America
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 лип 2021
- If you're looking for the best beef in the land, a ranch in northern Washington, right near the Canadian border, is a good place to start. Snake River Farms is an American pioneer of Wagyu, a style of meat that first came from Japan and is famous for its exceptional marbling. Although prices are steep, ask those who are hooked and they'll say it's well worth it.

“They can smell New York” that was freaking brutal 😂
That girl was amazing
A big difference with American raised cows is that they always seem to know you want to eat them.
Still nothing can beat the real Japanese waygu
@@ChefCameron281 its literally advertised on their website that is American Wagyu and a cross breed between purebred Japanese Wagyu and American cattle. Honestly took more time to write this comment than to look it up.... 🤦
It's different, just like Australian Wagyu. It's more of a beefy flavor & texture. I would never eat a Japanese Wagyu like an American steak. I would be full after a few bites because it's so rich.
@@ChefCameron281 they out right say it on their website bro lmfao and they explain that the ones that stayed were cross bred by his grandpa with others
@@Tuxedosam. But he was so sure of himself lmfao " proceeds to website only to see it in plain English "
Not yet, in 50 years America will be the Mecca of Wagyu.
It's great to see someone taking the decades it takes to actually create something like this.
Bull Mngr “they can smell NY”
Classic 😂😂😂😂
I always buy Snake River Farms meat and it is really something special. Pricey, but definitely worth it for those special occasions 😋
The best period
Buy higher quality at half the price locally.
I worked for the SNF company 13 yrs and I used get the Kobe steaks cheap.. great beef products and sooo delicious and tender…
Used their products at past restaurants. Awesome quality
Had my first wagyu filet on vacation in florida it was american wagy and the best filet ive ever had. Can only imagine what japanese tastes like
Although cliche, it literally melts in your mouth. Highly recommend you try it if you get a chance.
Eeeww cannibalism is gross, even if it's with a foreigner 🤢
@@Shadow__133 lmaoooooo
It's extremely rich & flavorful. Literally melts in your mouth. But they usually price it by the ounce & it's expensive $35/40/oz but most people can only eat a few ounces & they are full. It's not meant to eaten like an American style steak.
@@fanman71 Japanese beef is 4X times better...the comparison is really not an equal comp. USA beef is good but it is not Japanese level yet.
By far one of the best steaks I've ever had.....
This isn't Japanese wagyu. This is American Wagyu. As a wise man once said, "Never trust a restaurant that serves fresh fish 1,000 miles from the nearest ocean."
Have you always been a complainer? Another wise man said...."put a sock in it" Isn't the orld F***KED up enough as it is?
I guess anyone from the midwest aren't eating any "fresh" fish 🤦♂️
This is real Wagyu but it was cross bred. Japanese Wagyu will always be KING! but when you can’t afford those prices get this one which I must say is t cheap either.
Someday I may get to Japan and try the real thing. I am sure itis better. But until then, I am perfectly happy eating this stuff because it is really, really good.
@@naughtysauce4323 Do rivers and lakes not exist in the midwest ?
This is awesome. I have a SRF sticker on the back of my truck here in Boise. Absolutely love it, night and day difference from your regular steak and still leagues above USDA Prime.
Literally just got done eating wagyu from eataly here in NY from the is farm. Solid product.
I bought a bag of snake river wagyu jerky and it was VERY tasty
Just saw that product on their site, was thinking about doing the same haha
Love their beef!!😋
I had some Snake River Wagyu last night and it was delicious.
It's Oct 2022...Snake River farm steaks ARE the best! At $33. A lbs, it worth every dollar.
They make the best steaks in the United States by far, I wish in the article though you had mentioned the fact that their pricing is also matched comparatively and they are extremely expensive steaks.
Their ham is phenomenal as well.
They also cultivate a wagyu style ham. My lord it’s the best ham I’ve ever tasted
Used to live in Japan, theirs is WAYY better but I still buy snake river cuts every week. We eat it 2-3x a week. Good for steak and eggs or for dinner.
I didn't know from WA though, I live here :o
OMG! The BEST I’ve had!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I’ve bought a snake river from a Butchery shop near my house it was pretty good
Amazing brisket
News at its best; to create a well informed electorate. That being said, thanks for this meat ad.
I THINK Costco sells this. I have seen it listed in their Christmas catalog for well over 1,-000.00.
AMAZING Beef 🥩 thank you 😊 we will pay for quality
Not gonna lie waygu is something else. Had it can’t go back. Worth it 💯
It most definitely is a different product, it's like comparing veal to beef ... yeah they're both from the same animal just at different times in their life. Personally I'm not a big fan of beef that has that high a fat content.
I am in Bellingham Washington!
lol " they can smell new york " shes too funny
I bought 2 New York strips a little over 2 lbs, 3 inches thick, beautiful marbling for 105$
This cows look happy. If they can keep this mantra I'm all behind it.
Until their death some.
I’ve bought snake river wagyu several times. Never thought it was worth it over prime. Can’t tell much of a difference. Would rather save up and get A5 once in a blue moon instead.
Big difference buddy.
I took a Snake River farms brisket almost every weekend
The Japanese will always do what you do, but 10x better, this is no different.
Buy a piece of Snake River's New York steak. GENEROUSLY salt and pepper both sides (more than you think you will need). Cook over charcoal coals 3-3.5 minutes per side. Let rest for 6-8 minutes. Serve with a good Italian red wine. Absolute perfection.
You know what great too? Steaks that don’t cost $50 a pop for a raw steak.
that is up to 50 and ounce.
Or just not eating animals and getting better nutrients from plants 🙃
@@Starkesea whatever blows your skirt up🤷♂️
All we saw was the cow calf side and the bull side why didn't we see the feed ?
It's good and I get it now and then but not sure if it's that better than prime and veal.
I remember when it use to be called kobe beef because it was from there.
5:32 he is kent clark and not the other way around 😂
Man wish I would meet this dudes dad! smArt guy And The son seems cool af too
$41 seems like such a steal now
Smells good
2:36 and 3:52 is a lame bull. Back when I was a kid, (ya.. I'm old I guess) good beef had great marbling of fat in it. Cattle were grain fed. This makes sense.
Yeah those bulls are skinny and look hurt
Ur lying
Love me some Japanese wag you steak I paid $120 for a 8 oz so worth it! Wouldn’t you know it I first ate Wagyu at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant
Waygu is not just good fed cow it has generation after generation of efficient cow breeding and has a better physical environment than most of us
It’s nothing like a genuine Kobe steak. It’s very good, it has its place, has the potential to improve beef quality in the US. I have the real thing, but I’m only bringing 4 animals to market every year. But, they bring $50k plus. It’s $30-$55 PER BITE! One chef does beef sushi with it. Serves it raw and sliced paper thin.it dissolves on your tongue.
The Japanese will export the real thing genetics, but can’t ship live animals due to our restrictions, not their own. They know that survival of the genetics relies on spreading it around to avoid the potential of a biohazard wiping it off the face of the planet.
That title is misleading. He said the goal was to be above U.S. prime. He didn’t say he was trying to produce waygu.
enough people already knew but now the price is gonna go up even more with everyone wanting to try D:
That's the whole point, that was the point with Wagyu too. It has nothing to do with "perfection" or any of that, they (Japanese cattle farmers) saw the writing on the wall, when the country allowed beef to be imported they knew they could not keep up and would lose that game long term, so they come out with a specialty product aka Wagyu to try and differentiate, and don't get me wrong it is totally a different product, but still they went for the aim of ultra high priced as there was no one in that market really and then you the relatively small numbers that are sold are perfectly fine. Same for American Wagyu, much more money made per cattle is a win win... well except for the consumer, but they can continue to eat traditional American beef.
To be fair, I get my Wagyu from the Japanese Market, comes in from Japan. Snake River Farms is a good alternative to those without an imported option tho?!
Share your connect with us 🤣🤣
👍
the company has elevated the hype. it is not the same or even close to Japanese beef. if you eat a true A4 or A5 it'll spoil all beef after that.
It's beef. Who cares. Be happy you can eat it and have the opportunity to unlike folks in other countries
We’ll that’s fine for the Japanese, but here in America, I’m perfectly content with Snake River products.😋
@@godemperor7457 well if you pay the price you would care I guess.
@@Hnl954 they are good, but way over-priced and over hyped.
@@lennyj2080 why pay more for basically beef. Over endulgence. Most of you wouldn't survive a snowstorm without electricity and internet if you crying about overpriced beef that folks in most countries can't even get a fraction of
It’s like how watermelon use to have seeds and now every watermelon is seedless and amazingly sweet! I can’t wait for wagyu to dominate the market!!!!
Anyone else in the MOOOOOd for steak now? Lol
Lol 1 bull should get beer : )-
I stole 10 packages 📦 of that beautiful WAGYU BEEF 🥩
SRF has great beef. That being said, I live in Oklahoma and we literally have two farms that produce actual certified Japanese Wagyu that is better and cheaper than SRF beef. Look them up: Grand Cattle Company The High SL Ranch.
Wow you weren't lying, but everything is outve stock!?
There's plenty of great beef out there...Costco sells a lot of great USDA Prime and Choice beef at great prices. As a person who could afford this...I think to myself about how much pleasure I derive from a great burger, great burrito, great piece of fish...and move on....I don't need the Hermes of food...although I do own and enjoy their ties.
I feel bad for the people in these comments..it's called snake river for a reason
Japanese wagyu > American wagyu
About to smoke a snake River Waygu brisket
At the price they charge one steer is worth about $75,000 vs a normal Angus $4,000 the margins are nuts buy local wagyu that's better and much cheaper
Mmmmm!😋
Did I hear cooker?
Just cause you have wagyu cattles doesnt you mean you will get the same A5 wagyu beef quality if you dont put in same hard work and effort in taking care of cows as the Japanese does.
My meat wouldn't taste that good because I'm always stressed.
There are cultures that relish the taste of tortured beef. Most notably in spain, where the dead fighting bulls are served up in fine Madrid restaurants.
It's all about marketing, corn producers talked feedlots into buying corn.
Gotta still breed more wagyu beef in america.
There's other vendors now that are cheaper and just as good.
Costco and Sams club sells this but the Japanese wagyu tastes 20x better buy the original worth every penny
Ur lying
I'll stick to my 80/20 ground beef
U know wagyu ground beef can come in 80/20 too right? That’s just a blend not the quality lol
@@JavierJimenez-kn2ob lol yes but you know what I mean lol
Don’t look a5 but still,looks tasty
Kobe hands down still the best in the world
So the argument is said that farming as is supposed to be. Not factory farming
They need their 40oz malt liquor and massage to get marbling
Interesting. A couple of months ago, I purchased a pound of their ground beef from a nearby market. It was either $8.99 or $9.99. Honestly, the taste wasn't any better, or worse than the usual ground beef that I pick up on sale for maybe $3.5/lb. The supermarket did not have any of their steak products.
ground beef
Ground beef isn’t gonna use the best wagyu. It’ll be a bit different from regular ground beef but if you really wanna taste wagyu go buy a ribeye or something
@@limegpt I have eaten Wagyu several times while living in Japan. Access was easy as there was always a nearby supermarket which sold it. While there, I don't recall seeing a ground beef option and I was curious about the product.
@@limegpt I should have said that I hadn't seen a ground beef option at the supermarket as I went for a Wagyu burger at a new restaurant a few weeks back. Unfortunately, they got the temperature wrong... twice, so I got comped and left.
IN THE PHILIPPINES WE HAVE BA-GYO HA HA.
They can smell NY lol
grocery steak even too high price me
For the right price, I’ll stick with my Sous vide cooked porterhouse steak.
Sous Vide is an overhyped method for people that don't know how to grill properly.
@@naughtysauce4323 it’s obvious you’re one those Facebook idiots. You should remain on that platform.
Ummmm they still need shade from the sun to really pamper them
His father died young? Was it coronary disease?
No he died from poopcacaidoius
Because that's what the US needs, probably end up exporting it anyways
5:15 that looks like regular beef you find in the market.. come on.. this is just a ploy to sell regular meat at higher price by attaching different name..
Wagyu beef in America is the same genetics as Japanese. America can grow it much cheaper. 2 things is our feed is much cheaper and 2 American cattle because of cheaper higher quality feed ours grow much faster, so killed younger. Japan they fed mostly by product feeds like brewers grains, rice hulls, distillers grains in American corn and soy fed.
I've had true Wagyu in Tokyo, and I've had Snake River Wagyu. Snake River isn't as good. But it's the closest/best you'll ever get outside Japan
is stress out i eat, then i get fat, fml
We don't have the real wayguy
Waygu is not kobe....
This isn't a news report. It's an attempt to compare the lesser SRF Wagyu to the Japanese original which can't be duplicated. A feedlot in the U.S. isn't gonna compare to a Japanese farmer that actually cares about the animal.
So why I can't eat American beef I want American
That what I was saying
In a few of those clips the cows are limping. Looks like they need a good farrier.
That damn nyc stank scared them Japanese sumos!
No shade?
CBS puff peace somebody got paid off for this one so last year
🐂💭☠🥩 help they're trying to turn me into a steak.😈💭 don't worry you'll be just fine
Why not just bring the actual breed of cattle over here and do the same treatment? This is a multi billion dollar industry, I find it hard to imagine why they haven't done it at scale.
Ban on importing live animals & Wagyu DNA, but not meat.

Doubt it’ll be as good Japanese wagyu.
Its not.
Not meant to be compared to Japanese Wagyu. Japanese Wagyu is way more marbled than that. American & Australian Wagyu is meant to be eaten like an American steak. Japanese Wagyu is sliced thin & eaten in small portions. I would never eat a Japanese Wagyu steak, it's simply too rich.
Who cares? It's food and you have easy access to it. Americans always cry about the dumbest things when there are people in other nations that don't have access to healthy foods or a choice. Quit whining and eat your steak
who said it has to be?
Nope so what chemicals American wagyu has
lol after all that he pronounced wagyu wrong at the end
Soooo it’s basically GMO
Not a bad beef but not even close to Kuroge Washu A5 Japanese wagyu beef.
