Shimo Artful Wagyu Program
Shimo Artful Wagyu is produced under the Shimo program by Casino Food Company in northern New South Wales. Cattle are pasture-reared before undergoing a long-fed grain finishing phase of over 200 days on a barley and maize ration.
This feeding approach develops deep marbling, creamy fat texture, and consistent eating quality while maintaining Australian Wagyu integrity. Each brisket is processed under strict inspection and quality control to ensure performance, traceability, and reliability.
MB 8–9 Marbling: Brisket Taken Further
Marbling at this level is rarely seen in brisket. In the Shimo Wagyu MB 8–9, the fine network of intramuscular fat transforms the cut from traditional barbecue fare into a refined Wagyu experience.
Fat renders gradually into the muscle fibres, delivering juiciness, depth, and buttery richness. Collagen breaks down cleanly, resulting in slices that are soft, glossy, and indulgent without greasiness. This balance allows long cooks to remain controlled while rewarding patience with exceptional texture.
Cooking Methods That Perform
This brisket excels in techniques that allow marbling and collagen to work together:
-
Low-and-slow smoking: Produces deep bark, rich smoke character, and tender slices with Wagyu richness throughout.
-
Oven roasting: Gentle heat allows natural basting, creating an elegant centrepiece with refined flavour.
-
Braising: Long cooking in stock, wine, or beer delivers fork-tender meat and luxurious sauces.
-
Sous vide and sear: Precision cooking ensures even tenderness, finished with heat for aroma and colour.
-
Teppanyaki slicing: Thin cuts seared quickly allow the marbling to melt instantly for bold, indulgent bites.
Flavour Pairings and Serving Ideas
This brisket pairs best with seasonings that complement, not overpower:
- Sea salt and cracked pepper for purity
- Smoked paprika and spice rubs for depth
- Garlic and herb pastes for balance
- Sweet soy or umami glazes for richness
Serve smoked with classic barbecue accompaniments, braised with red wine gravy, roasted with seasonal vegetables, or sliced thin for teppanyaki-style presentation.
