Halal Tom Hixson Wagyu Ribeye

We’ve collaborated with our extensive network of Irish farmers to create an exclusive, award-winning, culinary experience that’s only available to our customers. This unique offering combines the distinctive characteristics of wagyu beef with the perfect marbling of the shorthorn breed to create sublime beef cuts, like this halal wagyu ribeye, packed with flavour and juiciness. 

As if this wasn’t enough, we then pack even more flavour into our halal wagyu by finishing the animal’s diet with chocolate for its final three months. This adds the perfect level of sweetness to every bite.

Our Tom Hixson Wagyu Ribeye won a Great Taste Award 2023 from the Guild of Fine Food! Here's what the judges had to say about our unique crossbred wagyu beef:

"We thought this wagyu was fabulous. It cut through like butter and the flesh was meltingly soft. There was a good proportion of fat left on it and this on its own had a great flavour. The meat was multi-layered in its complexity and we are not sure whether this was from the chocolate diet but that sweetness shone through. We could have happily eaten all of it (but we're not allowed!)

This steak has a very nicely developed, rich flavour and is superbly cooked with lovely caramelisation on the edges enhancing the experience. It is wonderfully tender and succulent, which delivers a most enjoyable eating experience.

This is a lovely looking steak with a good amount of fat to meat. Juicy and flavoursome.

We loved the innovation in the provenance of this beef. The flavour is a resounding applause to the pastures and welfare of the animal itself and the steak had a gorgeous umami finish."
