wagyu beef - worth the money?

[crisgal]

....or not?

[PrinceKev]

yes, of course it is worth the money. Any luxury meat, food, water, wine, fruit, veg, dessert, chocolate etc... product is worth the money if you fancy that little bit extra.

Everything has it's worth, and whilst beef can be beef, wagyu is a class above others.

[joggerjayne]

Not if you're having a barbecue.

But if you're treating special friends to dinner, then yes.

It would be hard to say that it was three times better than a good fillet (or ten times if you buy it in London), but I'd say it was worth it for a treat.

Can I come to dinner please?

[PrinceKev]

hey jayne!! I was there first. Can I come please? I'll make a nice salad...

[joggerjayne]

No Kev.

You gave the first answer.

But I was first to gatecrash the dinner party.

You can go round the following week, when they're having moussaka.

Calm down! calm down! Please don't fight over me!
There is no way I would normally consider paying such a price, but I thought I'd buy my husband some for his Christmas Pressy.
His favourite things are steak and beer, so I thought I'd get the best I could.
So you'd have to ask him for a bit (and it would be easier to get a bone off the dog!)

What beer do you think you will pair with the Wagyu beef?

[crisgal]

what would you recommend?

[hundreddolla]

Let me know what your partner's favourites are and that'll give me an idea of which beer route to go down.
