What is a New York Strip Steak?

The New York Strip Steak, also known as the Kansas City Strip, Sirloin Strip, or simply Strip Steak, is a cut from the short loin of the cow. This steak is known for its perfect balance of tenderness and beefy flavor.

The New York Strip has a moderate amount of marbling (fat streaks within the muscle) that makes it flavorful but not overly fatty.
It is typically boneless, though some versions, like the bone-in Kansas City Strip, may still have the bone attached for added flavor.

What Makes Australian Wagyu Special?

Wagyu beef is renowned worldwide for its exceptional marbling, which makes the beef incredibly tender, juicy, and flavorful. Australian Wagyu specifically refers to Wagyu cattle raised in Australia, where strict breeding practices ensure the highest quality of beef. Australia has become a global leader in producing high-quality Wagyu, thanks to its temperate climate and vast open spaces for cattle grazing.

Marbling: Australian Wagyu is known for its intense marbling, which gives the beef its signature buttery texture and rich flavor.
Texture: The high marbling results in a soft, almost melt-in-your-mouth texture that is incomparable to most other types of beef.
Flavors: The rich marbling in Australian Wagyu gives the beef a deep, almost umami flavor, making it an indulgent and luxurious choice for steak lovers.

How to Cook the Australian Wagyu New York Strip Steak 10oz:

To get the best out of this premium steak, it's important to cook it with care. Here’s how to prepare your Wagyu New York Strip:

1. Bring to Room Temperature

Let the steak rest at room temperature for about 30-60 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook evenly and prevents it from becoming tough when it hits the hot surface.

2. Seasoning

Season the steak simply with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Given the rich flavor of the Wagyu, you don’t need much else. You can also rub a little olive oil or melted butter on the steak before seasoning for extra richness.
For an added layer of flavor, you can also use garlic, rosemary, or thyme, or brush the steak with a garlic butter as it finishes cooking.

3. Cooking Method

The Australian Wagyu New York Strip is best cooked using high-heat methods like grilling or pan-searing to develop a good sear while keeping the interior tender and juicy.

Grilling:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Place the steak on the grill and sear each side for 3-5 minutes depending on the thickness of the steak.
3. For medium-rare, cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, and check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer. Aim for an internal temperature of about 130°F (54°C).
Pan-Seared (Stovetop):
1. Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan over medium-high heat until it is very hot.
2. Add a bit of oil (vegetable, canola, or grapeseed oil works well due to their high smoke point).
3. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side until a rich, golden-brown crust forms.
4. Once seared, lower the heat slightly and cook the steak for another 3-5 minutes, flipping halfway through for an even cook. Use a thermometer to check for your desired doneness.
Reverse Sear (Oven Method):
1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
2. Season the steak and cook it in the oven on a wire rack for about 20-30 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 115°F (46°C).
3. Heat a pan over high heat and sear the steak for 1-2 minutes per side to create a nice crust.

4. Resting the Steak

After cooking, let the steak rest for about 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring the steak stays juicy and tender when you cut into it.

5. Doneness Guide

Rare: 120°F (49°C)
Medium-Rare: 130°F (54°C)
Medium: 140°F (60°C)
Medium-Well: 150°F (66°C)
Well-Done: 160°F (71°C) and above

For Wagyu steaks, medium-rare is typically recommended to allow the marbling to melt into the meat, providing the ideal balance of tenderness and flavor.
