Wagyu Patties
Divide the meat into 4 even portions.
Shape each portion into a disc shape.
Make a small dimple in the center of each patty fo even cooking.
Season both sides with salt, we prefer to skip the pepper
Cover and set aside until you’re ready to cook.
Avocado Ranch
Finely chop the fresh herbs.
In a blender, combine the herbs, avocado, mayo and lemon juice.
Blend until smooth.
Season to taste, then blend again.
Set aside.
Cooking the wagyu patties
Heat pan or grill to high heat.
Sear each patty for 3-5 minutes on each side or until they reach your preferred internal temp.
Cooking Beef Fry or Facon
Using the pan with the leftover wagyu fat sear the strips on each side until golden brown and set aside.
