Our baseball steaks made of the best beef program in the world have made Sirloin sexy again. Its nice to grill or to cook in a cast iron skillet. The baseball-like shape makes it a great cook.

These steaks are a nice portion for one and a way to try one of the rarest steaks in the world without having to buy the whole muscle.

Miyazakigyu Wagyu is the #1 Wagyu brand in Japan and supply stateside is quite limited. This steaks are usually sold for $35-$50 per oz at top steakhouses. 

BASEBALL STEAK?

The baseball steak is usually an inexpensive cut found at diners, however an A5 baseball is VERY flavorful although it presents more grizzle than you would desire. However, the price/value is great and it is a good way to try A5 beef.

We do recommend cooking this steak to medium so that the fat renders properly. Otherwise you may need to cut around some fat.

ABOUT A5

A5 Miyazaky beef is measured on five factors: (1) marbling, (2) meat color and brightness, (3) firmness and texture of meat, and (4) color, luster and quality of fat.

In the quality grade, the lowest score from the four items of the yield grade is adopted. In other words, even if grade 5 was given to marbling, color and brightness, and firmness and texture, and only fat assessments was grade 4, the quality grade of this beef is classified as grade 4. Quality grading is severely done.

A5 means this beef excels in every single factor.It has a gorgeous webbing of fat that will make you feel a creamy mouth-feel in each bite. Its literally like tasting a cloud… a cloud of beef.

Like all of our steaks, they come vacuum sealed and have been hand-cut by our expert butchers. 

THE MIYAZAKI-GYU DIFFERENCE

At Meat N’ Bone we made the conscious decision of selling not only Miyazaki A5  but Miyazaki Gyu because it is the best in the world.  Other Wagyu from the area that do not meet the criteria for Miyazakigyu must be sold as “Miyazaki Kensan Gyu” or “Beef from Miyazaki Prefecture.” 

All Miyazakigyu is Wagyu but not all Wagyu is Miyazakigyu. Miyazakigyu is one step above Miyazaki Wagyu and is the cream of the crop of all Wagyu from Miyazaki. It is quite literally the best beef in the world.

Every five years, national “Wagyu Olympics” are being held to determine Japan’s, and therefore the world’s, best Wagyu. Miyazaki-Gyu is the only Wagyu Program to win this award twice in a row (2007 and 2012) and then be a runner up in 2017.

You can and will find cheaper A5 beef. In fact, even Kobe beef is cheaper. But we chose to offer the best beef in the world at the most affordable price that we could.

NEVER HAD A5 BEEF BEFORE?

At first glance every cut of A5 beef will be EXTREMELY fatty compared to any other steak you have ever had. That delicate and yet rich fat, which can make up to more than 60% of the steak is what makes it melt in your mouth. 

This amount of fat makes the beef have a lower melting point, meaning it will cook faster than your average steak. Cooking A5 is extremely easy, that said… it is recommended to pay close attention so that you do not burn or overcook your steaks.

Best Cooked: Medium-Rare, Medium, Medium-Well
