Grilling season arrives... FWIW, this is about as high end as you're ever going to see with domestic top prime, it was calling to me- couldn't resist... It was quite yummy....  5 minutes at 620F on my Weber....

I should add- with much research- I'm gonna buy a steak or two from https://double8cattle.com/  Yeah- silly.  Interesting thing is their wagu cattle ranch is somewhere in the vicinity of Mount Vernon Ohio.  I'll believe their spiel that their cattle are purebred and not crossbred from original Japanese stock-  but I'm not willing to go cheap and say what they're going to ship me is true A5 Japanese Wagu, I detect a difference.  Have to email them and see if driving direct to said ranch could cut out the  heavy shipping charges- they ship on Dry ice = big $$$.   .

Would you pay ~$100 for an 8 oz W5 steak or ~$116 for an 8 oz filet....... interesting question.

Burgers weren't that expensive.

Here's an 8 oz. Waygu A5 strip steak for $99.00.  Now the burger meat naturally would probably be less but if it grades out the same not cheap at all.

Now I'd have to see the receipts but I'd guess at least $50 a pound if not more.  Where's hoorta he would have a better handle on this stuff.

Fullblood Wagyu Beef Burger Patties

- Each package contains 4 Wagyu beef patties
- 8oz patties = 2 LBS per 4 pack

And if you're into bity burgers.

This is pretty much how to cook burgers whether they are Waygu or something from your local grocery store.  Man I could go for really good burger about now !  

From the Waygu ? burger information sheet.

I came across this article from our local Giant Eagle on how to make a better GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH  something good for GAMEDAY or any time you want a easy and delicious snack.

5 Ways to Take Your Grilled Cheese Sandwich to the Next Level.   

Variations of bread-plus-cheese have been eaten for centuries, but the closest relative to the sandwich we know and love today started gaining popularity in the 1920s when pasteurized cheese was invented as a way to keep cheese from spoiling. With fresh, accessible cheese now available all across the country, people began enjoying open-faced grilled cheese sandwiches, until eventually it became common to add a second slice of bread on top for an easily grabbable, more substantial meal.

Today, the grilled cheese sandwich is enjoyed all over the country, with gourmet variations popping up at even the fanciest of eateries. To get your sandwiches on par with best, here are five ways to up your grilled cheese game.

1. Mayonnaise v. Butter

Some people swear by a good, salted butter to lubricate their sandwich, but if you want a slightly different take, slather a thin layer of mayonnaise on both outside parts of your bread. This will create a crispy crust that is perfect for sealing in all the delicious flavors of your sandwich. If you just can’t quit butter, try a flavored variety like truffle or garlic for a fun and tasty twist.

2. Toast The Inside Parts Of Your Bread

Getting that perfect level of toastiness on the outside of your grilled cheese is key, but you can bring your sandwich to an even higher level of perfection by toasting the sides of your bread where the cheese goes before you put the cheese on. This ensures your sandwich will be crunchy all the way around.

3. Low & Slow

Start cooking your grilled cheese on low to medium heat for a sandwich that is the perfect level of melted crispiness. Cooking your sandwich too hot could result in a crispy outside, but a barely melted center.

4. Experiment With Different Bread/Cheese Options

Everyone loves a classic white bread and American cheese combo, but if you want to play with the big boys of the grilled cheese world, think outside of the bread box. We recommend goat cheese and walnut bread, or fontina on a good hearty multigrain.

5. Add Bacon

There are tons of ingredients you can add into your grilled cheese sandwich to take it up a notch; tomatoes, deli meats, crab, grilled onions, and olives, just to name a few, but our favorite all-time grilled cheese addition has got to be bacon. Add in some crumbles to your cheese as it melts or just stick a thick slice right on top for the ultimate crowd pleaser.

Celebrate Grilled Cheese!

The good news is, it’s incredibly hard to mess up a grilled cheese. No matter how you choose to celebrate grilled cheese, be sure to try one, or more, or all of these tips and tricks for a grilled cheese you and your whole family will love.
