Why This Cut Stands Apart
The Scotch Cube Roll is prized for its uniform cylindrical shape and consistent marbling from end to end. At the MB 6–7+ level, intramuscular fat forms a fine, frost-like network that melts gently during cooking, enriching the meat without overpowering its natural structure.
This cut delivers steakhouse-level indulgence while remaining versatile enough for a wide range of cooking techniques, making it ideal for both home chefs and serious entertainers.
Heritage, Program Standards, and Provenance
The Shimo Wagyu program draws its name from shimofuri, the Japanese term describing the delicate, snow-like marbling found in elite Wagyu beef. Cattle trace their lineage to Japanese Black Wagyu bloodlines, selected for intramuscular fat quality and texture.
Raised on expansive pastures across Victoria and New South Wales, cattle experience low-stress, free-range conditions supported by clean water and fertile grazing. A carefully managed grain-finishing phase enhances marbling while preserving depth of beef flavour.
The program prioritises animal welfare, rotational grazing, and regenerative land management, supporting soil health and long-term sustainability.
Understanding MB 6–7+ Wagyu Marbling
An MB 6–7+ rating places this cube roll among the upper tiers of Wagyu quality.
For the Scotch Cube Roll, this level of marbling delivers:
- Fine, creamy intramuscular fat that renders evenly.
- Exceptional juiciness without greasiness.
- A velvet-smooth mouthfeel with lingering umami depth.
- Greater forgiveness during cooking.
This is marbling that elevates flavour while maintaining control.
Taste and Texture Experience
When cooked, the aroma is rich and savoury with subtle nutty sweetness. The texture is tender yet structured, slicing cleanly while remaining succulent.
Each bite offers a balance of buttery Wagyu richness and clean beef flavour, finishing smooth rather than heavy. The mouthfeel is luxurious, with marbling that dissolves naturally on the palate.
Best Cooking Methods
This cube roll rewards precision and proper heat management:
- Pan-sear steaks: Slice 3–4 cm thick, season simply, sear hot to medium-rare, then rest well.
- Grill: High heat for char, then moderate heat to render fat evenly.
- Reverse sear: Slow-roast first, then finish with intense heat for a crust.
- Whole roast: Cook gently to 54 °C internal, rest 10–15 minutes, then carve.
- Sous vide: Cook at 54 °C, finish with a hard sear for maximum control.
Resting is essential to retain moisture and preserve texture.
