Quality assessment

Family business (Warmoll family, Willow Tree NSW) running both fullblood and crossbred Wagyu programs since 1991, when they put Tajima genetics over Angus. Cattle are bred and grown on the Liverpool Plains and Darling Downs, then grain-fed 400-450 days (500 days for purebred), no added hormones, graded on the AUS-MEAT marble score scale 3 to 9+. Multiple World Steak Challenge 'World's Best Steak' wins are an independent blind-judged quality signal. Solid rather than exemplary: it is a long-fed feedlot program with no welfare or environmental certification located.

Caveats

BADGE FALSE POSITIVE noted for our scraper: jackscreek.com.au serves an image named 'All-AWA-Comp-2023-01.png' — that is the AUSTRALIAN WAGYU ASSOCIATION competition, NOT 'Animal Welfare Approved'. Do not auto-credit AWA. Ferraro's menus 'marble 8-9' which is a real AUS-MEAT grade and should be credited as a specific, checkable claim. This is Australian Wagyu, not Japanese — do not score as Japanese Wagyu.

Family-owned Australian beef business since 1947 (Warmoll family), vertically integrated wagyu/Angus producer; multiple 'World's Best Steak' awards, exports to 30+ countries.
