Learn about how we label beef and Beef Grading Standards
The NY Strip Steak contains fat in levels that are somewhat in between the tenderloin (virtually none) and the ribeye (plenty of good, melty fat), and has flavors and textures that are more uniform throughout, unlike the ribeye which has varying textures.
The strip is cut from the striploin, from a muscle that does little work, like the filet.
With marbling score from 8 to 9, this beef rivals some of the best Wagyu in terms of tenderness and flavor. However, it also brings added versatility, boasting a slightly firmer texture and a deeper beefy flavor that shines in both traditional Japanese preparations, such as yakiniku, sukiyaki, and shabu-shabu, as well as Western-style steaks and roasts
F1 Japanese Wagyu: Kokusan-Gyu
Japanese cattle represent the pinnacle of innovative breeding, combining the rich heritage of Wagyu with the practicality and resilience of Holstein genetics. This unique hybrid delivers an extraordinary balance of luxurious marbling and hearty beefiness, elevating the dining experience to new heights. This is as close to A5 beef as you can get while retaining that beefy flavor of "western" style steaks.
The term Kokusan-Gyu (国産牛) translates directly to "domestically produced beef" in Japanese and signifies a commitment to the finest standards of Japanese agriculture. While Kokusan-Gyu is not exclusive to Wagyu, it encompasses all beef raised in Japan, ensuring a level of quality that reflects the country’s stringent regulations and dedication to sustainable, ethical farming practices. What sets Kokusan-Gyu apart is its guarantee of traceability, with every step of production—from breeding and feeding to processing—meticulously managed within Japan’s borders.
In the case of this steak, this commitment to quality is evident in the meticulous breeding process that combines Japanese Black Wagyu with Holstein cows. By blending these two lineages, F1 beef delivers a unique culinary experience. Imagine the exquisite, buttery marbling of A5 Miyazaki-Gyu—a hallmark of purebred Wagyu—paired with the robust texture and adaptability of Holstein cattle. This fusion creates an extraordinary balance of luxurious mouthfeel and savory depth, offering a harmonious combination that caters to a wide range of palates.
Japanese vs. American Cross
In Japan, the sanctity of Kuroge Wagyu genetics is safeguarded with unwavering dedication, ensuring that each succulent bite maintains the essence of true Wagyu heritage. This meticulous preservation translates into a consistency of quality and flavor that elevates Japanese Wagyu beef to a league of its own.
In contrast, American Wagyu production may tread a path of greater genetic variability, risking the dilution of those cherished Wagyu characteristics. While American producers undoubtedly strive for top-tier beef, the meticulous attention to genetic purity synonymous with Japanese practices sets Japanese F1 cattle apart as the pinnacle of perfection.
HOW DO I COOK IT?
You can make the New York Strip in the oven, grill or stove. You can also smoke it. We recently made a video of cooking our New York Strips topped with Bone Marrow.
More Than Just Beef
Ultimately, Japanese cattle offer more than just beef—they offer an experience. A symphony of flavor, texture, and aroma awaits those who savor the fruits of this meticulous breeding.

We had this steak last night and it was fabulous. Had it next to a #7 Australian Wagyu Strip. This Japanese strip was definitely more buttery than the Australian. Knowing that it comes from Japan you immediately think A5. I have had A5 strips in the past and I think I would actually prefer this over an A5, as it is "meatier" but still comes close to melting in your mouth. Definitely a steak that will be loved by all. The only reason for not giving it five stars is because I think the price of $130ish/lb is higher than I would have expected. For comparison, the #7 which is my go-to strip was $70/lb.
