    Default Anyone eaten Kobe Beef ?

    Just wondering what you thought of it ? Apparently they feed cattle beer and give them massages and it supposedly the nicest beef you can buy ? Theres a company near me that produces it and im thinking of buying some mince to use in spagetti bolognese.

    Its £140 a pack though!!
    And this here, is my fourty five...

    It is certainly worth trying if you've never had it before, though I might recommend against using it in bolognese sauce where it would likely be overpowered by all the spices and tomato. Just my 2 tbsp.


    Kobe beef - the real deal

    Kobe Beef Ribs - coming tomorrow

    Worth it all day long. ANd like turbolgy said, keep it out of something that may over power it.

    Do not destroyed it in a bolognese....in a bolognese you will not spot the difference between that and a regular tenderloin....

    no spicies... no sauces...just the kobe....

    all the others are made to cover the bad quality of foods....that is i think the origin of them

    had it, loved it, and I recommend keeping it simple and just sear it 2min. per side and stick in oven at 425 degrees for 3-4 min. and lest rest for 10 min and eat. of course let the meat get to room temp and add salt and pepper before cooking.

    personally i think kobe is a bit overrated. yes the texture and rich buttery flavor is something you cannot compare to with any other red meat in its class. i have had it numerous times as either main course dishes, appetizers, or even self served on a cast iron coal grill. But my personal preference is to have it as an appetizer course. Having Kobe Beef as a main course can be a bit overpowering and "heavy". If i was gonna have a steak i would not order a kobe steak. but rather some other choice of cut with more texture and something to chew on. But if you have never had Kobe.. its something you should try atleast once.

    This man knows his stuff. Kobe is certainly good once in a while, but I've had plenty of non-Kobe ribeyes that are far more memorable than most Kobe cuts I've had.
