One North Carolina family farm knows the importance of keeping the herd healthy, as they are one of the few Wagyu producers in the nation!
They say it has allowed them to create a unique product while enjoying the science behind it.
“We felt like it was a very niche market. It was a really cool, fun beef angle, just this high-end product, a very neat palette experience for the consumer, different than what you know, most people are used to, and just, you know, a fun spin on that, while also my husband loves the genetic side,” said Jaclyn Smith.
Wagyu beef came to the U.S. back in the 1970s. Right now, there is around 40,000 head across the country.
