Chubby Cattle, Rosemead

Finally made it to the hyped Chubby Cattle in Rosemead. This place has been the rage on the interwebs with their curry restaurant and high end joint - @chubbycurryla and @nikuxla On @reddit there was some controversy about @chubbycattlebbq source of Wagyu beef, since their claim was boosting something almost unheard of. I don’t remember the details, but I do remember someone from the @chubby.group responding to each question - which was admirable. Anyways … The Rosemad location offer a $28 yearly membership for some benefits and discounts - which we forgo’d. So we each had the AYCE for $65ish for 90 minutes. The restaurant space was quite small, with less than 20 small tables inside with a few more on the outside. I thought it was a bit cramped on the inside. The meat quality was surprisingly good and had to meet our high expectations from the hype. I did enjoy the meat which was only offered in grill grate form, no other option like a cast iron grilling plate. The accruements - with sauces, veggies, and assorted sides were ok. Unfortunately for a guy like me with a gout condition, this was a special and rare occasion for me to have AYCE beef or steak. I don’t have it often. Yes I know this is a contradiction since I’m also a certified Barbecue judge. But at least this allows me to savor beef when I have on rare occasions. Anyways … My friends and I all would recommend and would gladly return… .
