An easy at-home version of Mr Brisket’s famous Wagyu burger. It starts with the patty: seasoned with nothing more than salt, pepper and garlic, cooked on a hot flat plate until it’s nearly done, then finished under a slice of melting cheese. Onto toasted brioche it goes with BBQ sauce, yellow mustard, pickles, Kewpie and a quick red cabbage and mint slaw, all on the table in under half an hour.

Wagyu is bred for marbling, and that fat keeps a burger juicy and full of flavour on a hot plate. Diamantina Wagyu Burgers come as 150 g patties, ready for the grill. Look for Diamantina Wagyu Burgers in store at Eltham or Laverton North.

The Method

The Slaw

  1. Toss the cabbage, mint and spring onion together in a bowl.
  2. Stir the Kewpie and a little dash of apple cider vinegar together, then mix it through the slaw. Taste and adjust.

The Burgers

  1. Heat a grill or flat plate to high.
  2. Season the patties on both sides with salt, pepper and garlic.
  3. Cook, flipping once, until the patties are almost done.
  4. Lay a slice of cheese on each patty and let it melt as they finish cooking.
  5. If you like, toast the brioche buns cut side down on the grill.

To Build

  1. Start with the bottom bun, then the Wagyu burger, the slaw, a spread of Kewpie, BBQ sauce, yellow mustard and pickles. Finish with the top bun.

Pick up the cut in store.
