New York Strip

Also known as Kansas City Strip, Shell Steak · Bone-in or Boneless

The definitive steakhouse steak. A firm, flavorful cut with a strip of fat along the edge that renders into pure richness during cooking. Available only when separated from the T-bone. In Akaushi, the marbling throughout the strip creates a steak that self-bastes from within.

How to Cook It

Three Ways to Perfection

Akaushi new york strip is forgiving thanks to its marbling. These are our recommended methods.

Method 01
Pan Sear with Butter Baste
Screaming hot cast iron. Sear 3 minutes per side. Add butter, garlic, thyme. Baste continuously for 60 seconds. Rest 8 minutes.
Skillet 500°F → Internal 130°F → Rest 8 min
Tilt the pan and spoon the foaming butter over the top. This is where the crust becomes legendary.
Method 02
Charcoal Grill
Direct heat over hot coals. 4 minutes per side for 1-inch cut. Let the fat drip and flare for char flavor.
Direct 600°F+ → Internal 130°F
A strip's fat cap can cause flare-ups. Keep a cool zone ready to move the steak if needed.
Method 03
Sous Vide to Sear
Vacuum seal and cook at 130°F for 2 hours. Pat dry, then sear in cast iron for 60 seconds per side.
Sous vide 130°F 2 hours → Sear 500°F+ 60 sec per side
The most foolproof method for a perfect edge-to-edge medium-rare with a blazing crust.

The Steakhouse Standard, Raised Beyond Standard

The New York strip is the steak that built steakhouse culture. It has a firmer bite than the filet, more marbling than the sirloin, and a fat cap along the edge that renders into liquid gold during searing. It is the steak that rewards a hot pan and a confident hand.

In Akaushi Wagyu, the strip carries a density of intramuscular fat that makes commodity prime look sparse. The result is a steak that stays juicy even when cooked to medium, though medium-rare remains the recommendation. The crust develops faster because the fat renders to the surface, and the flavor is deeper because every fiber is threaded with Wagyu richness.

The strip is where technique meets genetics. A hot pan, a confident flip, and Akaushi marbling. That is all you need for the best steak of your life.
