New source for Waygu - Williams Sonoma?
Not sure if anyone saw this, but I have seen some threads about the rising price of Waygu from some farmers.
I got this today - Williams Sonoma now has their own mail order "butcher shop" and they list Waygu Briskets for $85. The farm is Oregon-based Yamaya. http://www.williams-sonoma.com/shop/.../?cm_type=lnav (all products) Waygu link: http://www.williams-sonoma.com/produ...try%7Cmeatbeef I am looking to get into competitions, have not done one yet. But this seemed like a competitive price from what I've seen elsewhere. They also had some other interesting products too but like usual WS stuff, rather expensive. |

Interesting, a cross between Wagyu and Black Angus.

It is my understanding that a majority of the Wagyu in the market is crossed in this way. This includes SRF.

the shipping on the site for a brisket order shipped to alabama was only $14 if that is right that is a whole lot cheaper than SRF or Strube Ranch

you could also sign up for a program pay $30 and have free shipping for a year worth it if you ordered more than 2 during a year

It says it is shipped fresh - I've never ordered meat to be shipped to my house, but I would think that they would want to overnight or 2-day it in a cooler, and that seems like it would cost more than $14.

Sounds like the 30$ free shipping for a year is a good deal. Brisket from srf shipping 61$.

Check it out and let us know what the quality is like. It may offer a good solution for the east coast. I know shipping from SRF or Strube can get out of control shipping to the east.
I can get KBA (Kobe Beef of America) locally for $4 lb and SRF is very cheap to ship to western WA. So it may not work for me.... Pay the $30 for the years worth of shipping and use the hell out of it. At $85 a brisket, you'd be getting a solid deal for good quality wagyu.

Great question - I assumed it was a 16-17lb, but it may be a bad assumption...
