Prep Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions for Australian Wagyu Tenderloin Steak

  1. Thaw steak in the refrigerator for 12–24 hours—never at room temperature.
  2. Remove from fridge and allow to come to room temperature (30–60 minutes, uncovered).
  3. Pat fully dry; season generously with sea salt and cracked black pepper. Optionally, dry-brine in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight.
  4. Preheat cast iron pan, grill, or oven to high heat.
  5. For steaks: Sear 2–3 minutes per side for rare, 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting for thickness; use a thermometer for precision. For whole tenderloin: Sear all sides, then indirect heat at 225–325°F until internal temp reaches desired doneness.
  6. Rest 5-10 minutes, tented loosely with foil, to let juices redistribute and ensure maximum tenderness.
  7. Serve immediately after resting, optionally topping with finishing salt, compound butter, or your favorite sauce.

Origin Story

Australian Wagyu’s story began in the late 1980s, when visionary Australian breeders first imported Wagyu genetics—from Japan and North America. In 1990, these initial imports were crossbred with established Angus and other quality local breeds, producing F1 and F2 generations that quickly gained acclaim for their impressive marbling and eating quality.​

By the mid-1990s, Australia received shipments of fullblood Wagyu females and bulls directly from Japan, laying the groundwork for the country’s now-renowned fullblood and purebred Wagyu herds. With natural pastures, clean climates, and advanced feeding programs, Australian ranchers refined Wagyu breeding to create a product that balances authentic Japanese marbling with the robust, beef-forward flavors prized by Western palates. Today, Australia is home to the largest Wagyu herd outside Japan, famed worldwide for its consistency, sustainability, and luxurious eating experience—the perfect blend of Japanese heritage and Australian cattle expertise.

How to Cook Australian Wagyu Tenderloin Steak

The Wagyu tenderloin steak flourishes under managed high heat, preferring a sizzling cast iron pan or hardwood grill to unlock its delicate marbling. A swift, focused sear builds a golden crust, allowing the steak’s luxurious intramuscular fat to melt just enough to enhance its signature tenderness without overwhelming its refined, buttery character. Precise temperature control is key—too much heat risks diminishing the inherent juiciness, while proper resting lets the natural flavors and sumptuous texture fully develop, ensuring every slice is exceptionally soft, moist, and elegantly rich.

Medium Rare 130-135 Degrees F 3-4 Minutes 4 Minutes
Medium 135-145 Degrees F 4-5 Minutes 5 Minutes
