Everyone always wants to know what is so special about wagyu beef. It's always super expensive and only the best restaurants serve it. We always get questions like are kobe and wagyu the same? Does kobe steak come from wagyu beef? Well, just sit back, relax, and stick around while we answer all those questions and more. Even better, after we show you a brief rerun of how to butcher a cow wagyu style, we're going to throw a kobe steak on the grill and smoke it to perfection!

If you're wondering, all of the beef that we used in this video came from Sakura Wagyu Farms - https://bit.ly/3wYeogZ (NOT a sponsor of this video). Want to know why their beef is amazing?

1) Their cows are bred from from legendary Japanese Wagyu bloodlines
2) Their producers must follow our strict guidelines to naturally raise the cattle
3) They are fed slowly, for a minimum of 400 days to promote highly marbled beef
4) They are fed an all-vegetarian diet
5) They are never given growth hormones

We've already done an entire "how to butcher a cow" video. Same applies for Wagyu. Find it here:

Here are a few of the FAQs that Scott answers. There's much more starting at 1:26:
1) What does Wagyu mean? "Japanese Cow" 1:40
2) What makes Wagyu so special? It's extremely tasty, good for you, and Wagyu beef cattle are genetically predisposed to having a lot of intramuscular fat marbling. 1:50
3) What in the world is Delta 9 Desaturase? All cattle have a gene that codes for it, but a Wagyu cow has it switched on and it the enzyme Delta 9 Desaturase. This enzyme converts stearic acid to oleic acid. The short of it is that stearic acid is saturated fat and oleic acid is unsaturated fat, so the best tasting beef on the planet is actually at the same time full of healthy fats. 2:23
4) Ok, that's all great, but what is Kobe beef? Kobe is simply a region in Japan (see map in video) that's known for having the best of the best Wagyu beef on the planet 3:10
