The Wagyu Sando is a cult like craze right now on the interwebs and of course I realllly want to join with a Sous Vide version. Well, if you didn’t already know, A5 is a pretty penny so I’m not about to experiment on the real deal. So, I went with a ribeye from my local Supermarket to see if I could prove the concept. Oh and I wanted it to be dang tasty.
🔪Prep Time 30 minutes
🛁Sous Vide Time 2 hours @130F/54.4C
🥩 Total Time 2 hour 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 Ribeye
- Salt to taste
- 4 slices Japanese milk bread or bread of your choice
- Sriracha Mayo or sauce of your choice
- Mayo or butter for bread toasting. Dealers choice.
- 1 cup seasoned Panko
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 cup seasoned flour (salt, pepper, garlic)
- 1/2″ layer of canola or veg oil for frying
Instructions
I started by lightly Salting the ribeye before the bath. I knew I was going to have salt in other areas of the prep so I didn’t go too crazy.
Next, set your Sous Vide circulator to 130 degrees F / 54.5 degrees C. Bag your protein and place it in your bath. I’ll link to my SV and container set up in the equipment list at the bottom of this write up if you’re wondering. Forgot to take a picture this time. SV for two hours. While your ribeye is in the bath, turn your attention elsewhere. Lightly toast only ONE side of your bread. I like to heat up my cast iron and toast with a light coating of mayo.

After the time is up on the steak. Take it out and cut into fourths. Dry with paper towels.
Set up your dredge stations and run each piece through the flour, egg, and seasoned panko
Heat up about 1/2″ layer of canola oil. Remember. We are only shallow frying now to get the outside crispy. About 1-1.5min a side. The inside is already done.
While your make the sandwiches. Slice up a piece for the chef. Thems the perks.
Generous spread your sauce on the bread. I went with a sriracha mayo. And I did not regret that decision.
Enjoy! And share with your friends!

This looks amazing! Just wanted to let you know that I plan to try this over the weekend. I am going to use a ribeye that I dry-aged at home for 56 days, and I may try roasting one on the smoker and doing another in the SV just for a comparison. But otherwise I plan on following your approach pretty closely.
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
This looks amazing and cant wait to try… also, that potato also looks delicious, any chance you have a link for that recipe?!
Thanks josh. I believe it was a good network recipe. There is actually a bunch of them out there. They’re called hassleback potatoes.
