Kobe burger for lunch at Black and Blue was darn good. 

Have the white cheddar fries ? We've been duplicating them by making taters into steak fries and sprinkling with white cheddar popcorn seasoning.

TF...did you process yourself or drop off locally? And if so did you get the cube steaks from them?

Buck and doe shop on Sheridan drive in Williamsville  They'll cube the whole deer if you want at the normal flat fee. The deer shoppe by airport charges extra for cube steaks. Little butter in cast iron skillet , dash of black pepper , cheddar cheese and you're rocking and rolling 

[moog5050]

Just regular fries.  I didn't even know about white cheddar.  Have to ask next time. I usually substitute the orzo mac and cheese for fries there.  Love that mac and cheese.

No idea Biz.  I assume its American.  Its not a $300 burger.  lol

Had 2 deer done at Deer shoppe last year and was not happy. Big fat doe and nice buck. Both yielded 35-37 pounds. Tenderloins were tiny , steaks had silverskin left on , extra for cubesteaks. Although the dogs you speak of were excellent. B n D I got 50 pounds from similar sized deer last year  Not sure they gave me my actual deer back by volume and tenderloins at Deer shoppe. Even packaging at B n D better.  

[mlammerhirt]

I will try Buck an Doe.....shot a decent buck this year and got the typical 35 back like you did, was a little miffed bit accepted it since I chose to go there and not do it myself.
Liked the dogs....but did pay for the cube steaks.

American or Japanese Kobe?

Wagyu is a Japanese cattle strain and Kobe is a particular type of Wagyu, all from Japan.

Isn't there the whole scam of American Kobe, which isn't really true Kobe? Hence the low prices.

Wonder how much Moog's burger cost? If it's something like under $20, it can't be real Kobe for that price can it?

It was called Wagyu and I am sure it was American based Wagyu cattle.  I looked it up after Biz asked and there are only 8 restaurants in the US that sell certified Japanese Kobe Waygu at a much greater price than I would ever pay.  It was a good burger but only $16.

yea this makes sense. I've never had it, just remember reading a while back about the "Kobe" word popularity in the U.S.

Quick research suggested that Wagyu cattle are also raised in the US and the beef is sold as such, but without indicating that its not of the same quality and original Japanese Waygu.  Kobe is just one area of Japan where this type of cattle is raised.

Kobe is actually patented in Japan, but not in US. What we normally see here is Kobe Style beef, which is an American raised Wagyu line of cattle usually cross-bred with Angus.

I'm going to Del Frisco's in January. Just check the menu and they have this listed:

Wagyu Tomahawk Chop (32 oz. Ribeye Long-Bone).

Is it the real deal?

[moog5050]

Not certified Kobe Biz.  Could be real Japanese Wagyu, but I would bet against it.

Hard to tell, they claim to have both domestic and imported. Price is $95.

Yea, it doesn't say "Kobe" on the menu so they probably know better.

$95 would be very cheap for 32oz of Japanese Wagyu from the prices I saw.

A good friend treated us to Wagyu once, as a thank you for being one of his groomsmen. It was the most amazing piece of food I've ever had, at the price of $200 for maybe 6-8 oz, and that was on sale.
