Wagyu Beef Cheeks Australia

Wagyu beef cheeks from Australia are a true treat for anyone who loves slow-cooked meat with deep, full-bodied flavour. These relatively small cuts from the cheek of the cow are beautifully marbled with fat, which melts into the meat during cooking and turns them into velvety pieces that simply melt in your mouth. The taste is intense and the texture luxuriously soft, making them ideal for stews, slow oven roasts, or sous vide preparations. Thanks to the Wagyu marbling, these cheeks offer a unique combination of tenderness and creamy richness that’s hard to find elsewhere.

What are beef cheeks?

Beef cheeks are muscles taken from the cheek of the cow, a hardworking area rich in connective tissue. When cooked quickly, they remain firm, but give them time and they transform into melt-in-your-mouth strands of beef that fall apart with ease. This ‘working muscle’ is especially well suited for low and slow dishes like stews, rendang, or pulled beef-style recipes. With the marbling of Wagyu, these beef cheeks are just that bit more luxurious, juicier, and more flavourful than standard cheeks.

Australian Wagyu, premium quality with character

These beef cheeks come from Australian Wagyu, a cattle breed descended from the famous Japanese Wagyu and celebrated for its exceptional fat marbling. In Australia, the animals have plenty of space and are fed a special grain-based diet, which helps develop that signature Wagyu profile: rich, creamy, and full of umami. The meat strikes a perfect balance between tenderness and structure, holding its shape and taste even during long cooking times. Australian Wagyu is a favourite among chefs worldwide, known as an affordable luxury with uncompromising quality.
