Beef Belly (Whole Navel Plate – Approx. 11–18 lbs)

The whole belly. Untouched. Yours to master.

The Wagyu-X Beef Belly is a whole navel plate — the legendary primal that beef bacon comes from, delivered raw and complete, just as nature made it. Each piece is a solid 11–18 lb slab of deeply marbled Black Tajima beef, never trimmed, sliced, cured, or smoked. That's intentional: every decision about this cut belongs to you.

A quick word before you order: this is a true whole primal, not a ready-to-cook cut. It arrives as one large, solid piece, and you'll want to trim it and break it down at home before cooking. For the right cook, that's not a drawback — it's the best part.

What you're getting:

🥩 One whole navel plate, sold by the piece (11–18 lbs, size varies naturally)

🔪 Completely raw and untouched — your canvas from start to finish

🧊 Arrives as a solid primal, ready for you to trim and break down

💪 Rich, even Wagyu marbling made for low-and-slow cooking

Where it shines: Curing and smoking your own beef bacon · Whole-slab braises · Burnt ends · The richest grind blend you'll ever taste

This is a cut for pitmasters, home butchers, and cooks who love the craft as much as the meal. You're starting from the very beginning — and ending with something nobody can buy off a shelf.
