Overview

Our Italian Sausage begins with 100% Akaushi Wagyu—prized for its fine-grained
marbling and rich flavor profile. To this foundation, we add a robust blend of
classic Italian seasonings: toasted fennel, garlic, chili flake, oregano, and black pepper.
The result is a perfectly balanced link—naturally encased, smoked over Texas mesquite, and
crafted to bring bold Mediterranean character to a truly luxurious cut of beef.

Flavor Profile

First bite: mesquite smoke mingles with bright herbs and deep beef umami.
Mid-palate: fennel, garlic, and red chili bring warmth, spice, and complexity.
Finish: clean black pepper and earthy oregano linger on a bed of rich Wagyu fat.

Pairs beautifully with a bold Chianti, San Pellegrino with lemon, or an ice-cold Peroni.

Best Uses

• Pasta Essential: Slice or crumble into red sauce, lasagna, or baked ziti
  for a juicy, flavorful base note.
• Pizza Powerhouse: Dot onto a Neapolitan-style pie with mozzarella,
  crushed tomato, and basil.
• Grill Favorite: Serve whole with roasted peppers, onions, and toasted ciabatta.
• Breakfast Fusion: Fold into frittatas or breakfast sandwiches with fresh spinach
  and provolone.

Cooking Tips

Let links come to room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking. Grill or pan-sear
over medium heat, rotating every 2–3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches
160 °F (71 °C). Finish in a 300 °F oven for 5 minutes for extra tenderness, then rest
under foil for 3–5 minutes before slicing on the bias.
