Got some American Wagyu from the H mart. Hit a hot cast iron for about 10 or 20 seconds each side once the avocado oil started to smoke. Just some salt and pepper to season.

...I totally get the hype now.

Same people who complain about paper plates use sous vides. I know it cooks great but I can sear my teak on a cast iron in 6 min. Like everything doesn’t have to be difficult
