So....I got some more pictures to share. I bought a choice packer at Wally World so I figured I'd take some pics of it and both of them together after some basic trimming. I don't go all nutso when trimming like some, I leave some fat and silver skin. I have one picture of me holding a trimmed piece of fat with a little meat on it to show the difference in appearance and you can visually see that the Wagyu is softer and has more fat speckled throughout. Trimming the Wagyu brisket was night and day different from trimming the Choice one. It is a MUCH softer piece of meat.

Walmart's Finest :) BIG solid HARD fat on this one


Can't complain about the price - infinitely cheaper than SRF

I'm putting them on at about 11 tonight. Gonna wrap them in peach butcher paper around 160 or so. They'll be done when they're done ;)

Now that I look a bit more at the trimmed comparisons...that choice grade is holding its own next to the Waggie  8)

When handling them both I can tell you that the Wagyu is much softer and the fat was literally melting in my hands!

Ize cited!  ;D ;D
