Best looking marbling I've ever seen in a choice cut of ribeye. Looks like waygu.

Looks like steatosis from an injury

Thats actually damaged meat and cartilage because bruising. Going to be tough…..

That’s a genetic mutation bro. It’s safe to eat though. That’s pretty much how wagyu was bred into existence

Looked like someone glued a piece of Wagyu in the middle of that middle steak. WTF?

I upvotes this post so people could read why buying this particular steak was a bad idea.

OP, next time, look for the steak with the pocket of green hummus. That’s one you will always remember!

Looks like an injury. It doesn’t make any physiological sense to think that would be an area of especially good marbling. If you look at any highly marbled ribeye, the spinalis is more marbled, or at least as marbled, as the eye—not less marbled. And there isn’t any reason for half of the eye to be far more marbled than the other half.
I know you’re saying you liked it but people say they liked virtually every atrocity that’s posted here.
I’m surprised the butcher put that out.

As your friendly neighborhood grammar nazi, it’s wagyu, not waygu and the Y is not silent. Also this is steatosis

I think it’s time to start removing steatosis posts

Congratulations, you played yourself.
That’s not marbling. It’s steatosis. It’s typically very tough and not pleasant to eat.

Yes…steatosis…but it does seem as though some instances of steatosis don’t impact the taste as much. It doesn’t turn it into wagyu, but it also doesn’t turn it into dreck.

That’s nicely priced

did you ask yourself why that “marbling” is only in one specific spot, and not the whole steak? Even if i knew absolutely nothing of steak, i’d think that was weird. Ya know?

Crazy how like 1 person said steatosis and now everyone is piling on lmao.

Yeah that’s a steak that should be in the reduced bin, or just trimmed out. I wouldn’t sell that in my shop.

Mmmm steatosis

Everyone calls out “steatosis” every time they see some lucky marbling. I’m convinced none of you guys have actually seen steatosis.
