Inside vs thick skirt

Both come from the plate area. Inside skirt is thinner with a looser grain and an intense, beefy flavour. Thick skirt (sometimes sold as hanger-style) is meatier with a satisfying, tender chew. Both cook quickly and love a marinade.

How to cook skirt steak

Cook over the hottest heat you have for 1–2 minutes per side, to medium-rare. Rest briefly, then slice thinly across the grain — this is the key to tenderness with skirt.

Skirt for yakiniku

Our Suzuki skirt yakiniku slices are pre-cut for the tabletop grill: a few seconds per side, then straight into the sauce.

Cooking Wagyu: the basics

Use high heat

A very hot pan or grill renders the marbling and builds a crust. Wagyu fat means you need little or no oil.

Rest, then slice against the grain

Rest steaks for about half their cooking time, then slice across the grain for tenderness.

Use a thermometer

Rare 50–52°C, medium-rare 54–57°C, medium 60–63°C (core temperature before resting).
