I'm not that good of a smoker to claim that I know the difference!

This is where Pops advice would come in handy

I've had Wagyu many times but I've never had it smoked (nor have I ordered it from that site).  Honestly, I think it would be a huge waste to smoke any cut of Wagyu but I know some use it in competitions.

Had smoked austrailian wage beef ribs the other day. ITs a fattier marble but I think overly fatty since beef rib is already a fatty cut. However it was really good and soft.

I have on order a short rib wagyu I'll be smoking soon. After that I'll be smoking brisket wagyu. I'll keep you guys posted. I have a meat hookup so the prices are around or less than choice many times.

That is "Kobe-style" Waygu beef -- its not even the real deal. If you're going to spend that much on beef, you might as well get the good stuff.

Also, in my honest opinion, Kobe beef should be grilled, or seared if you will, on a very hot grill.

Never had Waygu beef, can't afford a USDA Select Strip Loin even, lol!  I do know it's raised for its tenderness which means they don't let the animal move hardly at all and feed it heavy in grainns to increase its marbling extensively; thus the extreme tenderness.

Big Poppa is a great guy and a good friend.. . I've not tried the waygu but the meat he carries comes from the Strube ranch in Texas..

Sterling (Big Poppa) swears by it.  That's good enough for me!
