Important Notes:
- Embrace the Marbling: Wagyu striploin's fat content makes it perfect for high-heat cooking for a beautiful sear and melt-in-your-mouth texture.
- Medium-Rare is Ideal: Aim for medium-rare to medium doneness to prevent the Wagyu from becoming tough.

Pan-Searing:
1. Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat.
2. Sear the striploin for 2-3 minutes per side, or until a deep golden crust forms.
3. Reduce heat to medium and cook for a further few minutes on each side until you reach your desired doneness.

Reverse Sear:
1. Preheat your oven to a low temperature of 100-120°C (225-250°F).
2. Roast the striploin on a wire rack in a baking sheet until it's about 10-15 degrees below your desired final temperature.
3. Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over very high heat. Sear the striploin for 1-2 minutes per side to develop a rich, flavorful crust.

Grilling:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Grill the striploin for 3-5 minutes per side, or until nicely charred.
3. Move to indirect heat and continue cooking until your desired doneness.

Tips:
- Thermometer is Key: Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy. Aim for medium-rare (54-57°C/130-135°F) or medium (60-63°C/140-145°F)
- Rest, Then Slice: Allow the steak to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain for maximum tenderness.
- High Heat = Fast Cooking: The Wagyu's marbling will help keep it moist even with quick cooking times.

Important Note: Due to the high marbling of Wagyu, it cooks faster than traditional beef. Be sure to monitor the temperature carefully.

Rare (48-52°C / 120-125°F): Soft texture, very red center. For those who enjoy Wagyu's melt-in-the-mouth richness.

Medium-Rare (54-57°C / 130-135°F): Highly recommended for Wagyu. The perfect balance of tenderness, juiciness, and the buttery flavor Wagyu is known for. 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 feel may be diminished.

Medium-Well (65-68°C / 150-155°F): Pinkish-gray center, noticeably firmer. Not generally recommended for Wagyu unless you truly prefer your steak more cooked through.

Well-Done (Above 68°C / 155°F): Not recommended for Wagyu. The high-fat content can lead to a tough and dry texture at this temperature.
