Picanha Steak | A5 Miyazakigyu Japanese Wagyu
.
Learn about how we label beef and wagyu grading standards.
What Is A Picanha Wagyu Steak?
This is hands-down the most popular beef in Brazil. Picanha (pronounced pee-KAHN-yah) is known stateside as 'Top Sirloin Cap, Fat On'. The fat is what makes all the difference.
While Picanha is best cooked in open flames (charcoal or wood), it can also be cooked with gas or in the oven.
This is the best wagyu Picanha in the world and it is extremely hard to procure. This is an extremely rare find. In fact, outside of Meat N' Bone we had never seen it before.
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. These steaks are usually sold for $35-$50 per oz at top steakhouses.
About A5 Wagyu Picanha
A5 Miyazaki beef is measured on five factors:
- Marbling
- Meat color and brightness
- Firmness
- Texture of meat
- 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 creates a creamy texture in each bite. It's literally like tasting a cloud; a cloud of delicious and succulent beef.
Like all of our steaks, they come vacuum sealed and have been hand-cut by our expert butchers.
The Miyazaki-gyu Difference
Every five years, national “Wagyu Olympics” are 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. Our A5 wagyu picanha is in a class of its own.
