About this Cut

Indulge in the pinnacle of beef luxury with our exquisite Australian Wagyu Vacio steaks, conveniently portioned into 10 oz cuts. These steaks boast an impressive Beef Marbling Score (BMS) of 8-9, placing them among the finest Wagyu offerings available. The Vacio, also known as bavette or flap steak, is a flavorful cut from the bottom sirloin, featuring intense marbling that ensures unparalleled tenderness and flavor. With a rich, buttery texture that melts in your mouth and a complex beef flavor , these steaks are a true culinary delight. 

Cooking Method: Preheat your grill or cast-iron skillet to high heat, and season the steak lightly with kosher salt just before cooking. For medium-rare doneness, cook the steak for approximately 3 minutes per side, and for optimal results, avoid overcooking this cut; the high fat content of Wagyu beef allows for a lower cooking temperature while still achieving a beautiful crust.

Recommended Temperature: 125-130°F (52-54°C) for medium-rare.

At this level, the marbling is more pronounced, weaving a dense network of fat throughout the meat, which translates into an exceptionally buttery texture.

It's ideal for special occasions or for those who want to indulge in the ultimate expression of Wagyu beef's culinary excellence. The richness and texture of an 8/9 BMS Wagyu make it a sought-after choice for those who appreciate the zenith of beef marbling and flavor.

Grass-Fed, Grain-Finished Beef

Not to be confused with 100% grass fed beef which tends to be much leaner and have more of an earthy flavor, our beef is grass-fed, grain-finished which offers a unique balance of flavor and tenderness, combining the best aspects of both feeding practices. These cattle are raised initially on pastures, where they graze on a natural grass diet. Towards the end of their lives, these cattle are transitioned to a grain-based diet, which enhances marbling — the intramuscular fat that makes beef juicier and more flavorful. This allows for a healthier cow, while still achieving the tenderness and delicious beef flavor that comes from a diet of grains.

This method not only improves the meat’s tenderness and palatability but also allows the beef to retain some of the health benefits of being grass-fed, such as higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants compared to conventionally raised beef. Consumers who choose grass-fed, grain-finished beef enjoy a product that strikes a desirable balance between health benefits and culinary appeal, making it a popular choice for those looking to enjoy high-quality, flavorful beef with enhanced nutritional properties.

Antibiotic and Hormone-Free Beef

All of our cows are raised free of any hormones or antibiotics. This practice ensures that the meat is as natural as possible, reducing consumer exposure to these substances. The absence of antibiotics in the raising of these animals helps prevent the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, a significant benefit for public health. Additionally, hormone-free meat often has better taste and quality. By choosing antibiotic and hormone-free meat, consumers support more natural animal husbandry practices and contribute to a healthier environment, while also enjoying safer and more flavorful meat.
