last month my most wonderful friend henry...who runs a restaurant with his poppa called me and said hey..i have some wagyu beef from australia if you want some..and holyshit i did....drove down there...we chatted a bit and he hands me this huge hunk...3 thick steaks of it....gloooorious...marbling as pretty as ropes of sperm across norah jones' tender chest...
so i massaged my meat with xtra virgin, rubbed some freshly cracked peppercorn and kosher salt....heated a heavy cast iron pan up a whole bunch then seared the steak on each side for 2 minutes or so...and let it rest for 15 minutes....
unstrangely enough there are no pictures of after...gus, andy and i were too stunned to speak....this was the most wonderful thing i have ever had in my mouth..besides, well..you know.....but sooo buttery..rich...tender as anything....it was simply tremendous...several hundred dollars worth of meat gone in a few heartbeats.....
so thank you henry..gus and andy thank you....
