Why is Wagyu Rump Cap Special?

  1. Wagyu Marbling: Unlike regular beef, Wagyu has intense intramuscular fat (marbling), making the meat buttery, tender, and flavourful.

  2. Rich Flavour: The combination of Wagyu fat and the rump cap’s natural beefy taste creates an incredibly juicy and umami-packed experience.

  3. Great for Grilling & Roasting: The fat cap renders beautifully when grilled, roasted, or seared, enhancing the meat's succulence.

How to Cook Wagyu Rump Cap?

  • Reverse Sear: Slow cook it first (e.g., oven at low temp), then finish with a hot sear to get a crispy crust.

  • Grill (Picanha Style): Cut into thick steaks, season with coarse salt, and grill over charcoal.

  • Roast Whole: Keep the fat cap on, slow roast, and slice thinly after resting.

Serving Suggestions

  • Slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.

  • Sprinkle with flaky salt right before serving.

  • Pair with chimichurri, roasted potatoes, or grilled vegetables.

  • Enjoy with a bold red wine (Malbec, Shiraz, or Cabernet Sauvignon). 🍷
