Hey cousins! I don’t know if it’s just me, but lately these steakhouses just aren’t doing what needs to be done. I swear, that every time I order a steak from a restaurant (no matter how fancy it is) I leave unsatisfied. The steaks are usually unseasoned, dry, and definitely overpriced. Finally, I got tired of the games, y’all! I took my butt to a local butcher and bought my own damn steaks! Cousins, I bought a bunch of NY Steaks, Ribeyes, and my all time favorite – Wagyu Steaks!!! I know, I know – Wagyu steaks are freaking expensive, but I like to treat my family (and myself!) every once in a while!

Two raw marbled wagyu steaks sit on a wooden cutting board.

Now, let’s talk about these steaks, baby! If you’re unfamiliar with Wagyu steaks, allow me to put you on some game, but simply, Wagyu steaks are known for the marbling. Take a minute, and look at the picture above. Y’all see that marbling right?! No matter if you like your steak rare, medium, or well, Wagyu steaks seem to always come out so darn tender. In my opinion, these steaks are worth every darn dime. If you need more information on Wagyu beef, be sure to look it up. Right now, I’m going straight to the recipe.

The Perfect Seasoning for Pan-Grilled Wagyu Steak

When making any steak recipe, I like to keep it easy. I don’t like reaching for a ton of ingredients. However, I want my steak seasoned to perfection. I achieve the best-tasting steaks, by simply using my Rosamae Seasonings “Steak Whatcha Mama Gave Ya“. Everything you need, from garlic, salt, and other spices, is in the steak blend. Also a little goes a long way. I used about 1 1/2 tsp of seasoning on each steak.

Wagyu steaks sit in a hot griddle, perfectly coated in Rosamae's steak seasoning.

I grill each of the Wagyu steaks in my grill pan. I simply add a little oil and butter. I then place the pan over medium-high heat and wait for it to heat up. Next, I add in the steaks! I’m a fan of onions, and many of you know that I’m a garlic fiend, so I toss those in the pan as well. I like my steaks medium rare so I cook my steaks for about 15 – 20 minutes. Keep in mind that the Wagyu steaks that I used for this recipe were quite thick. I’d say each steak was about 1-1/2 inch before cooking.

Tender, juicy wagyu steaks covered with steak seasoning, onions, parsley flakes, and butter cook in a grill pan.

Be sure to try this Pan-Grilled Wagyu Steak recipe, and tell me what you think. Keep in mind that you can use a different cut of steak if you’d prefer!
