The holidays are approaching quickly and if you’re like many of us, you have way too much to do without even thinking about what you want to serve the family. Let us help with our Holiday Party Food Guide, picked and tested by our Wagyu experts!
Start your holiday party off right with some delicious Wagyu hors d’oeuvres! Wow your guests with a culinary delicacy, try our Beef Wellington Wagyu Bites recipe, made with our Wagyu Filet Mignon Tips. We recommend doubling the recipe, your guests won’t be able to keep their hands off these tasty Wagyu bites. If you’re looking for a more casual vibe, try these Honey Garlic Wagyu Meatballs. Delicious and satisfying, your guests won’t be able to get enough of them. Plus, it’s an easy ground beef recipe that you can make ahead!
Now, for the main course, Wagyu roasts! Wagyu roasts are a great choice for your holiday party. Booth Creek Wagyu has a variety of cuts to choose from, depending on the size you need. Our personal favorites are the Wagyu Prime Rib Roast and the Wagyu Picanha Roast. Both have that buttery and tender flavor you find in traditional Wagyu, making for a savory holiday feast.
Don’t forget about the sides, because we surely didn’t! There are so many sides you can make, but how do you make them stand out? We recommend adding Wagyu bacon to take your dishes up a notch! Some ideas that pair well with our Wagyu bacon are Brussel sprouts, green bean casserole, deviled eggs, plus mac and cheese.
Wondering what drinks to serve with Wagyu? To make your holiday party even more memorable, we suggest pairing all this Wagyu flavor with a classic red wine. This wine should complement the Wagyu rather than overshadow it, making a vibrant, acidic medium – or full-bodied wine the perfect choice.
Serving Wagyu will not only elevate your holiday dinner but the whole holiday party itself! This guide is only the beginning of all the cooking opportunities you can have with Wagyu, check out our website for more recipes and cooking tips to use when hosting guests or your family on a weeknight.
