This Earth Day, we’re looking back on last September, when the Allen Brothers team traveled to Australia to experience some of the 16 million acres of landscape our Australian Wagyu partner, Westholme , calls home.

From the vast outback of Brunette Downs to the flowing rivers of Canobie and the lush pastures of Goonoo, these environments are essential to Westholme’s nature-led approach, where responsible land stewardship comes first.

Their herd roams millions of acres of native grasses, allowing the environment to play a direct role in developing flavor. Combined with a genetic lineage tracing back to Japan, this results in Wagyu shaped by both heritage and terroir.

It’s a philosophy we value deeply. By partnering with Westholme, we bring you beef that reflects a commitment to the land and a standard of quality we stand behind, grounded in the shared belief that taking care of the land is where it all begins.

Let the land lead 🌾

Across our facilities nationwide, new dry-aging rooms are initiated using select product from our original Chicago room, the oldest in the country.

This helps establish the foundational dry-aging environment, supporting consistent microbial and atmospheric conditions that drive our signature flavor development 🥩

Crisi is a true Jersey girl, born and raised in Montclair and now living in Bloomfield, right in the heart of the “Spaghetti Triangle.” As a kid, she dreamed of becoming a movie star, but hours spent cooking with her dad turned that childhood pastime into a lifelong calling.

She discovered her passion for butchery on the first day of culinary school in Italy’s Parma region, where she learned to embrace whole-animal butchery with respect, care, and sustainability at its core. 🇮🇹👩🏻‍🍳

Today, Crisi is the Category Manager for Meat & Seafood in New York. No two days are the same. She collaborates with chefs and sales teams, monitors inventory, plans events, and leads trainings. Along the way, she has learned that in this industry, relationships, trust, and flexibility matter just as much as the products themselves.

Her favorite cut is ribeye, best enjoyed with her top secret marinade she keeps close at hand. Off the clock, she loves spending time with her husband and two rescue mutts, diving into thriller novels, watching Bravo, and hosting family and friends in a home filled with food and laughter. 🏡 🍽️

Crisi is proud to be part of the Allen Brothers family, where the work is fulfilling and fun, and the love of food always comes first. 🥩

A5 Japanese Wagyu raised in Kyushu, snow aged for 30 days in Niigata inside a traditional Yukimuro hut.

A Yukimuro, or snow covered aging room, is a traditional Japanese technique used to preserve food during the winter. The snow naturally insulates the space, maintaining a steady environment of 1–2°C with about 90% humidity.

Over time, oxygen breaks down muscle fibers and proteins convert into free amino acids, increasing tenderness and deepening the flavor.

The result is sweet, rich Wagyu with a true melt in your mouth texture.

BMS 10+. This is Wagyu you need to try! 😍
