hey anyone ever have some kobe beef steak, was it worth the high price?

Pornwolf · 12-28-2003, 02:04 PM

Depends on what it's in. I had a $41 Kobe hamburger recently that wasn't worth it.

I had on about 2 weeks ago, and it was'nt anything special, it was soft like a filet mignon, but it was really fatty!

I prefer filet mignon's, cost much less and taste much better.

$41?! did it come with a gold chain?

Loryn · 12-28-2003, 02:13 PM

I haven't had on yet, but would love too. The airport to get to Kobe Japan is on a man made island. So I have always wanted to fly into that airport and have a kobe beek steak dinner.

Kobe beef if prepaired properly is amazing. It has a huge fat content, and something I could not eat all the time. Normally when I order it I share it as an apetizer amoung a few people. Too rich to just eat by yourself.

It is a tasty treat from time to time however.

For some reason I thought this thread was about a Kobe Bryant hot beef injection.

Naah, but stuff like that you eat on a corporate expense account so no one really pays for overpriced restaurant food.

doornx · 12-28-2003, 02:25 PM

i'll have a rare kobe bryant burger with the medium fries please

Hell Puppy · 12-28-2003, 04:16 PM

Kobe, prepared properly, is nothing like the typical american grilled steak. It is best served very very rare. If cooked to what we'd typically consider medium, you've basically messed up a great piece of beef.

Also do not expect a big ole slab of steak, the portions are going to be small. Treat it as an ultra exotic appetizer.

If you pay less than $100 for it, you're probably not getting a true representation of what kobe beef is all about. Because of the price my advice is try steak tar-tar in a good high end steak house as an appetizer and if you enjoy that, then consider kobe if you ever have the opportunity.

If you're the type of person who wants your beef cooked well done with all of the flavor cooked out of it and finds rare meat disgusting, you're not going to like kobe. It is a delicacy that only a true carnivore will enjoy.

BradShaw · 12-28-2003, 04:20 PM

I love kobe steak. But best to eat when you are 99% sure someone else is picking up the tab. Good Kobe at a nice restaurant will run you $15 an ounce.

Find yourself a meaningless rich husband who will fulfill all your whims. Then afterwards you can post it here on GFY so that we all can enjoy.

No - sincerely - I love the idea of cows getting pampered, being feed good beer, etc. Nice for a change after this mad cow disease nightmare.

I had a super kobe steak last Internext at the expense of Hooper and Wiseman - pretty much the best steak I have ever had, and to top it off, the company was the best.

LadyMischief · 12-28-2003, 04:48 PM

FUCKING INCREDIBLE. If you love beef, you have to have kobe at least once.

AdultNex · 12-28-2003, 05:09 PM

You can only get the kosher kobe beef in some parts of Asia.

I traveled there before, had kobe there (where they actually give the cows beer, massage them, etc.)-- And I thought I was in heaven.

Very well marbled beef. I don't know if it's worth it, but it sure tasted good.

Just_Dave · 12-28-2003, 06:25 PM

it is worth trying it

Interesting about the whole mad cow hysteria. Mad cow only affects the brain and spinal chord of the animal, not its steak. So eat up!

Thats what i was thinking, kobe beef isn't exported so much anymore, since they make enough off it from people buying it there...The stuff you find in america is "kobe" but its like....hmm, how to compare, ok, its like having a dominican cohiba. I'd love to have real kobe beef, no joke, its on my top 10 things to do in life. Since i have to go on vacation to get it, well, thats just a bonus.

there's a chick in colorado who didn't like kobe beef
