A wagyu burger is a gourmet burger made from ground beef sourced from Wagyu cattle, a Japanese breed known for its distinctive and extensive intramuscular fat marbling. This unique marbling melts at a lower temperature than regular beef fat, resulting in a patty that is exceptionally tender, juicy, and rich with buttery umami flavour. 

Key characteristics

• Superior tenderness: The fine, interwoven streaks of fat throughout the muscle tissue create a soft, delicate texture that is often described as "melt-in-your-mouth".

• Rich, buttery flavour: As the fat renders during cooking, it bastes the meat from within, infusing the burger with a luxurious, savoury taste that is richer than that of a standard burger.

• Intense juiciness: The high-fat content of Wagyu helps the patty retain moisture, ensuring it remains succulent throughout the cooking process, unlike leaner ground beef which can dry out quickly.

• Unique aroma: When cooked, Wagyu beef releases a unique, sweet aroma caused by flavour compounds called lactones, which become more fragrant when heated.

• Less is more: Because of its intense richness, a small portion of a Wagyu burger is often more satisfying than a large one made from conventional beef. Toppings are often kept minimal to allow the complex flavour of the beef to shine.
