What Makes F1 Wagyu Special?
F1 Wagyu brings together Wagyu richness and Angus strength, creating a cut that delivers flavour, texture, and reliable cooking results.
-
Balanced Genetics: F1 Wagyu is the first-generation cross between fullblood Japanese Wagyu and Angus cattle. It blends the marbling quality of Wagyu with the bold flavour and muscle structure of Angus, delivering a well-rounded eating experience.
-
Superior Marbling: Thanks to its Wagyu lineage, F1 beef contains finely distributed intramuscular fat that enhances tenderness, moisture, and mouthfeel without overwhelming the palate.
-
Bold Beef Flavour: While Wagyu can sometimes be overly rich, the Angus influence ensures that F1 cuts retain a stronger, more traditional beef flavour, giving you depth without excess.
-
Consistent Performance: F1 Wagyu is bred for reliability. Whether grilled, roasted, or smoked, it cooks evenly and holds its structure, making it a favourite for both home cooks and professionals.
-
Efficient Feeding: F1 Wagyu cattle are typically grain-fed on a controlled diet that supports steady marbling development without excessive fat buildup, ensuring quality across the board.
-
Versatility in the Kitchen: F1 cuts like the Cube Roll can be sliced into steaks, cooked whole, or prepared sous vide. Its versatility makes it ideal for various cooking styles and occasions.
Marbling Matters: MB 8–9 Performance
Marbling isn’t just fat, it’s flavour, texture, and tenderness. Here’s why MB 8–9 makes this cut something truly special.
-
High-Grade Marbling: A Marble Score of 8–9 places this cut among the most richly marbled beef available, delivering exceptional tenderness and juiciness.
-
Melt-in-Your-Mouth Texture: The fine web of intramuscular fat breaks down during cooking, creating a buttery-soft mouthfeel without the meat falling apart.
-
Rich but Balanced: MB 8–9 strikes the right balance between richness and structure, offering luxurious fat content without overpowering the beef flavour.
-
Enhanced Flavour Depth: As the fat renders, it infuses the meat with bold, savoury notes, amplifying every bite with complexity and satisfaction.
-
Ideal for Precision Cooking: This level of marbling allows for flexibility with different cooking methods, from high-heat grilling to low and slow smoking.

Cooking Notes: From Slab to Flame
From grill to smoker, this cut delivers every time. Here’s how to cook the ICON XB Cube Roll like a pro.
-
Slice It or Cook It Whole: The Cube Roll can be portioned into thick steaks or cooked as a whole piece for an impressive roast or smoke-up.
-
Room Temperature Prep: Always let the meat rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cooking to ensure even heat distribution.
-
Season Simply, Generously: Use salt, pepper, or your go-to rub. The fat does the heavy lifting; no need for complex marinades.
-
Grill or Pan Sear: For steaks, sear over high heat to form a golden crust. Finish in a low oven or on indirect heat to medium-rare.
-
Reverse Sear for Whole Cuts: Cook low and slow (120–150°C), then blast with high heat at the end for a crispy, flavourful finish.
-
Sous Vide for Precision: Set at 54°C for 3–4 hours, then sear to finish. This method locks in moisture and gives perfect doneness edge-to-edge.
-
Rest and Slice Right: Rest for at least 10 minutes. Slice against the grain to maximise tenderness and presentation.
-
Pair Boldly: Pair with roasted garlic butter, chimichurri, charred greens, or red wine jus. Serve it sliced with confidence.
