The third attempt at CC delivering my Wagyu striploin was a success. They even upgraded me to a 12 ounce piece from the 10 ouncer I ordered. I did make the extra effort to have FedEx hold my package at their facility and I picked it up in the early AM--even drug my butt out of bed earlier than normal to do so. There was still some dry ice present--a pound or two. I can't believe they would be successful once summer temps go over 100°F--the delivery route includes Palm Springs and Phoenix.
As for Wagyu, it is quite spectacular, but I wouldn't order it again. Way too rich (and pricey) for my tastes. We split it between five people and a couple ounces each was plenty. I cooked in a hot CI pan, cut the meat into 3/4" widths and seared on all four sides. You owe it to yourself to try this once.
