🥩 Wagyu Steak & Del Bocia Butter

How to Turn Steak Night Into Something Special


Serves: 1–2

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 10 minutes + 10 minutes resting

 


 

 

🧠 Why This Works

 


When you start with beautifully marbled Australian Wagyu and finish with rich, hand-crafted Del Bocia butter, you don’t need tricks — just heat, patience and timing. Every bite becomes creamy, bold and deeply satisfying. This is steak night… levelled up.

 


 

 

🛒 Ingredients

 

 

  • Wagyu steak (any preferred cut)

  • Salt & pepper

  • Oil with a high smoke point

  • Del Bocia butter

🔥 Method

 

 

  1. Bring the steak to room temperature and pat it dry.

  2. Season both sides generously with salt.

  3. Heat a pan until hot; add a touch of oil.

  4. Sear each side until a deep crust forms — adjust cooking time to your preferred doneness.

  5. Rest the steak for 5–10 minutes.

  6. Slice and top with Del Bocia butter so it melts over the warm meat.

  7. Serve immediately — no garnish needed.

🧈 The Butter Makes It

 


Del Bocia butter is made locally in small batches using Australian dairy and traditional French-style methods. The flavour is complex, creamy and perfectly balanced — made to melt over steak.

 


 

 

💡 Pro Tips

 

 

  • Let it sear — don’t flip too early.

  • Use a timer — feelings are good but seconds count.

  • Resting = flavour — cutting too soon drains the juice.

  • Slice against the grain for tenderness.
