PIONEERS IN AMERICAN WAGYU
The foundation of Snake River Farms American Wagyu comes from ancient Japanese origins – purebred Wagyu animals from famed bloodlines are the base of our herd. We cross our own purebred Wagyu bulls with traditional, high-quality cattle to provide the melt-in-your-mouth experience. This combination of “East meets West” embodies the marbling of Japanese beef together with the hearty and robust beefy flavor of traditional American beef creating a product that is the best of both worlds.
EAST MEETS WEST
TASTE THE DIFFERENCE
Snake River Farms American Wagyu beef is in a class of its own. Every richly marbled steak and roast provides a unique dining experience. Each bite reveals beef with a buttery texture, complex flavors, subtle sweetness, and a lingering finish. Snake River Farms beef grades well above USDA Prime, the highest USDA quality grade, therefore we use the Japanese Beef Marbling Score grading system to capture and convey our premium quality.

STEAKHOUSE METHOD
Prepare a perfectly seared steak at home
Pick your patty size by splitting the beef in the packaging as follows: In half for 8 oz patties
In thirds for 5.3 oz patties
In quarters for 4 oz patties
Roll each portion into a ball then press with the back side of a plate to form a flat patty. Use the size of your bun as a guide.
Preheat grill or skillet to medium heat. Season patties with salt and pepper and place flat on the grill or skillet, leaving room between each burger.
Cook one side until juices come through the top. Turn and continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
Prepare burger toppings to your preference and enjoy!
Key Note: Always use a meat thermometer to determine internal temperature of your beef.

The Best of Both Worlds
THE WORLD'S FINEST PORK
PREMIUM FLAVOR
Snake River Farms Pork features small, fine streaks of marbling that make each cut tender and juicy. Unlike traditional white pork, Kurobuta Pork is richer in flavor and much darker in color due to a naturally higher pH that retains more juice through the cooking process.
INDIVIDUALIZED CARE
Our 100% Berkshire hogs are raised with great care from start to finish in our network of family farms. The herds are kept small for individualized attention and care without the use of gestation stalls or growth promotants. The extraordinary care combined with a slow-fed approach makes Snake River Farms Kurobuta Pork the finest pork available.
Snake River Farms is proud to produce 100% Berkshire pork. Referred to as Kurobuta (black hog) in Japan, it is considered the culinary equivalent of Wagyu beef and is highly regarded for its internal marbling. Using the oldest Berkshire bloodlines in the United States, Snake River Farms American Kurobuta Pork has cultivated an international following for its juicy tenderness and intense flavor.
