What’s your favourite way of eating wagyu?

Teppanyaki, sukiyaki, shabu-shabu, yakiniku, sushi and or just on a skewer, barbecued over an open fire (or maybe it’s actually Genghis Khan)? Tell me your favourites, folks!

If I had to choose, I’d probably pick some skewered hida gyu. Had that shit once during a weekend-trip to Takayama and it was simply divine…

  1. Yakiniku. But I’m becoming too old for the heavily marbled stuff. A couple slices and the heartburn starts

  2. Teppanyaki. But I don’t do it often because lordy it can be expensive. At least the good A5 type shit. I often eat regular Japanese beef at Teppanyaki, once per month, for 2,000 yen or so.

  3. Teppanyaki is the only correct answer. Everything else is for when you don’t have enough wagyu.

  4. Iwatani gas stove with a slab of volcanic rock on top. Smeared with lard.

    Or cast iron skillet, with enough lard to sink the meat in. “Deep fry” it for a few seconds so the outside browns and gets crispy.

    I eat mine with some wasabi. My wife prefers some pink salt.
