16oz Wagyu Ribeye, with Asparagus for Health |
As you may know, the Formula 1 was in Austin last weekend. I have two friends with whom I attend the race every year, and part of our race weekend tradition is a visit to ALC Steaks. Last time I had been to ALC was in June, and whilst there I enjoyed the 16oz wagyu steak (from Beeman Ranch) from the specials menu. It was fantastic (the marbling in wagyu is intense); I liked it even better than the bone-in, dry-aged, grass-fed strip from 44 Farms. Thus I was pleasantly surprised last Friday when the 16oz wagyu was still in the specials section. Again I ordered it (see photo above) and again I was highly impressed.
I don't know what the long term availability of this steak is, but if you are at ALC Steaks anytime soon I highly recommend that you try it. It is every cent worth the $65.
Also, I have a rule-of-thumb for steak: if they name the farm/ranch of origin on the menu, it is probably going to be good.
