Wagyu Barbacoa Cheek

Our Wagyu barbacoa cheek meat is a deeply flavorful, specialty cut prized for its melt-in-your-mouth texture when slow-cooked. Known for its high collagen content, this cut becomes tender and juicy with low-and-slow preparation - perfect for tacos, tamales, or a bold twist on traditional barbacoa. Rich marbling adds unbeatable flavor that sets it apart from ordinary beef.

All of our Wagyu cheek meat is:

• Grass fed & Grain finished
• 21 Day Dry Age for the best flavor and tenderness
• No Antibiotics, GMOs, or Hormones – ever
• Frozen & vacuum sealed to conserve peak freshness

Our American Akaushi (AH-KA-OO-SHE) Wagyu is a premium crossbreed, guaranteed to be at least 50% pure and prized for its rich marbling. High in monounsaturated fats and oleic acid, it offers a healthier fat profile and exceptional flavor. Akaushi - also known as Akage Washu - is one of the four elite Wagyu breeds, making our cuts a rare find.

Our Wagyu cattle are primarily raised on a diet of grass, which means they graze in pastures for most of their lives. However, during the last month before they are butchered, they are fed grain to enhance the flavor and marbling of the meat.

Our cattle are raised with care and processed at local USDA or state-inspected facilities. From pasture to plate, we manage every step to ensure you’re receiving a truly craft product - responsibly raised, and full of flavor you can trust.
