- Medium-Rare is Ideal: This cut is best enjoyed at medium-rare to retain tenderness and juiciness.

Pan-Searing:
1. Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high.
2. Sear the D-rump for 2-3 minutes per side for a nice crust.
3. Reduce heat to medium and cook for another 2-3 minutes per side, or until desired doneness.

Sous Vide:
1. Set sous vide device to your medium-rare preference (54-57°C /130-135°F).
2. Season and seal D-rump in a sous vide bag. Cook for 1-2 hours (depending on thickness) for perfectly even doneness.
3. Finish with a quick sear in a hot pan for a flavorful crust.

Grilling (with care):
1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2. Grill D-rump for 2-3 minutes per side for a sear.
3. Move to indirect heat and continue cooking, closing the grill lid, until desired doneness. Monitor temperature closely.

Tips:
- Thermometer is KEY: Use a meat thermometer for accuracy with this leaner cut.
- Don't Overcook: D-rump can toughen if cooked beyond medium.
- Slice Thinly: Always slice against the grain for maximum tenderness, especially with D-rump.
- Consider a Marinade: Marinating can add flavor and help tenderize the leaner meat (a few hours to overnight).

Rare (48-52°C / 120-125°F): Extremely soft texture, very red center. Delivers maximum Wagyu richness.

Medium-Rare (54-57°C / 130-135°F): Highly recommended for Wagyu D-rump. The ideal balance of tenderness, juiciness, and the incredible flavor of this Wagyu cut. Center is bright pink and warm.

Medium (60-63°C / 140-145°F): Slightly firmer texture, light pink center. Still tender and flavorful, but some of the luxurious melt-in-the-mouth quality is diminished.

Medium-Well (65-68°C / 150-155°F): Pinkish-gray center, noticeably firmer. Suitable if you prefer a more cooked-through steak, but some tenderness may be lost.

Well-Done (Above 68°C / 155°F): Generally not recommended for Wagyu D-rump, as it can become tough and dry.
