First Light Wagyu - Tri Tips (pack of 2)

Your next BBQ is calling! Tri-tips, cut from the bottom of the sirloin and named after its unique triangular shape with three points) is a popular cut in California cooking as it originally rose in popularity there in the 1950s as a great barbecue cut. Tri tip is a versatile cut - great for cooking whole on the grill (or fantastic in the smoker), and also great when sliced into individual steaks. These tri tips are from First Light Farms in New Zealand, so it has the exceptional and unique flavor of 100% grass-fed wagyu. These are packs of 2 tri-tips, about 600g-1kg each, packaged together for a total weight of 1.2 - 2kg. Sold by weight. If you are looking for a specific size, add a few to your cart (the specific weights will show in the cart) and remove the ones you don't want. -- About the producer: "Like steak with headphones on." That's Mark Schatzker, author of Steak: One Man's Search for the World's Tastiest Piece of Beef, describing our new 100% grass-fed wagyu from First Light Farms in New Zealand - what he considers to be the best beef in the world. We agree. Why? First Light were the first farmers in the world to marry the incredible marbling that wagyu genetics can deliver with a 100% grass-fed diet on lush New Zealand grassland & healthy soils. That means you get the deep, sweet, nutty flavor of wagyu - developed by a lifelong of grazing healthy pasture - accentuated by rich, natural marbling. It took a decade of fine-tuning the process, but First Light nailed it. The end result is beef that is both incredibly delicious (winners of the World Steak Challenge for 4 out of the last 5 years) AND incredibly healthy - First Light's grass-fed wagyu tenderloin tested at an incredible 1:1.3 omega 3 to 6 fatty acid ratio, a basically perfect score, meaning that this very nutrient-dense meat will not cause inflammation. (In fact, it was the healthiest ratio ever tested by the lab at the University of Toronto - which is not surprising given that grain-fed beef typically ranges from 1:9 to 1:25.)
