At Booth Creek Wagyu, we control every step: genetics, raising, feeding, processing, and retail. Our cattle are raised in stress-free, sustainable environments, ensuring responsible farming practices that contribute to superior meat quality. This vertical integration means we guarantee consistency and transparency that mass-market Prime sources—where beef comes from anonymous feedlots and commodity processors—simply can’t match.  

Wagyu beef fat challenges everything we thought we knew about animal fats in our diet.
