The wagyu of the sea. Bluefin tuna is a delicacy unlike any other, and there’s a good reason single fish have sold for north of 3 million dollars. They’re fantastic. Similar to a cow, they have various different cuts of meat, all of which are very different in terms of their colors, textures, flavors, and perhaps most notably, fat content. Today, we got an 132 pound tuna and turned it into a sushi roll. And I was joined by my amazing, kind friend @GugaFoods.

One additional note. I’m a huge advocate for the environment and this includes sustainable fishing practices. Bluefin tuna in particular have a sad history of overfishing from certain foreign fleets. This tuna came from South Africa and, to my knowledge, was sustainably harvested given each country has a certain quota. With that said, I’m constantly thinking about that balance between respecting the environment and providing content you can love and learn from, so I thought it was important to be transparent.

    Angel’s “before souljaboy” joke was so under appreciated.
  • @toxikwastedump
    instead of cutting the steaks, if you cut off the top triangle and then cut the rest into halves according to the pattern on the fish itself, you get the nice triangle portion for rolls and the bottom 2 'saku blocks' for nigiri and sashimi

    Hey man thanks for posting these amazing, satisfying videos with them being just as if not more entertaining than YouTubers who base their videos on entertainment. Your videos are amazing and I like how you aren’t one of those YouTubers who are overhyped and scream the whole time and don’t even show the process
