Wagyu Grilling Ideas for Game Day

Here are a few easy and delicious grilling ideas that will take your game day spread to the next level. Pair them with your favorite game day drinks, and you’re ready for the ultimate tailgate feast.

1. Wagyu Beef Burgers

Wagyu beef burgers are the ultimate crowd-pleaser. With their rich flavor and tender texture, these burgers are a guaranteed hit. Simply season the patties with a little salt and pepper and grill them to perfection. Top with your favorite cheese, lettuce, tomato, and condiments for a next-level burger experience.

For an extra touch, try serving with gourmet toppings like caramelized onions, crispy bacon, or avocado. Pair your Wagyu burgers with a cold beer or a classic game day drink to keep things fun and festive.

2. Wagyu Hot Dogs

Upgrade your classic game day hot dogs with Wagyu hot dogs! These gourmet dogs offer a juicier, more flavorful bite that will have your guests coming back for more. Grill them up and serve with traditional toppings like ketchup, mustard, and relish, or get creative with unique toppings like coleslaw, sautéed peppers, or spicy mustard.

Wagyu hot dogs are a fun and flavorful way to add something special to your tailgate menu. They’re easy to prepare, making them perfect for a crowd.

3. Wagyu Skewers

For something a little more interactive, try making Wagyu skewers. Cut Wagyu steak into cubes and thread them onto skewers with colorful vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and cherry tomatoes. Season with your favorite marinade or a simple mix of olive oil, garlic, and herbs, then grill to your preferred level of doneness.

These skewers are perfect for sharing and make a great addition to your game day spread. Plus, they’re easy to eat while cheering on your team!

4. Wagyu Steaks

If you want to go all out for game day, nothing beats a perfectly grilled Wagyu steak. Choose cuts like Ribeye or New York Strip for a rich, flavorful steak that melts in your mouth. Season with just salt and pepper, then grill to your desired level of doneness—medium-rare is often the best to showcase the tenderness and marbling of the Wagyu.

Serve with a side of grilled vegetables, baked potatoes, or a fresh salad for a full, satisfying meal.

Tailgate Sides to Pair with Your Wagyu

A great meal isn’t just about the main dish—it’s about the sides, too. Here are some perfect side dishes to serve alongside your Wagyu:

• Grilled Corn on the Cob: A simple and tasty side that pairs perfectly with Wagyu. Brush with butter and sprinkle with seasoning or cheese for extra flavor.

• Potato Salad: A classic tailgate side that goes well with anything. Make it creamy or tangy, depending on your preference.

• Coleslaw: The crunch and acidity of coleslaw is the perfect balance to the rich flavor of Wagyu beef.

• Grilled Veggies: Veggies like asparagus, mushrooms, and zucchini are easy to grill and make a great complement to your beef dishes.

• Chips and Dip: No tailgate is complete without chips and dip. Serve with your favorite dip—guacamole, salsa, or a tangy ranch dressing.

Beverage Pairings for Your Game Day Feast

No tailgate is complete without the perfect drink to wash down all that delicious Wagyu. Consider offering a selection of beverages to suit your guests' tastes:

• Beer: A cold, refreshing beer is a tailgate classic. Pair a light lager or a hoppy IPA with your Wagyu burgers and hot dogs.

• Cocktails: For a more elevated experience, try serving cocktails like a whiskey sour or a classic gin and tonic to complement the richness of Wagyu.

• Soda and Sparkling Water: For non-alcoholic options, offer soda or sparkling water with a twist of lime for a refreshing option.
