I don't think Costco people would tenderize steaks mechanically (simply add more labor cost). They usually cut their steaks fresh in bulk from vacuum-sealed whole pieces (usually gone within 1-2 days) while retail stores keep their steaks out on ice for much longer. Therefore Costco steaks appear to be tender and wet. As steak dries and protein/fat starts to degrade, the beefy flavor becomes more pronounced, like aging. I feel you probably will like ribeye cap a lot.

Fact check: I was wrong. They do tenderize most single-cut steaks with blades.

From what I recall, they do mechanically tenderize most of their steaks, unlikely for this though. I believe you can see it on the label as "Blade Tenderized".

Every Costco I've been to, you can watch them run the meat through the mechanical tenderizer.

Quote from pyroskater85 :
Interesting, I'll have to try sams club meat. I figured it would be junk compared to costco. Figured costco puts a little more effort in quality than Sam's club.
But if you're worried about mechanically tenderizing the meat use a sous vide. It will make meat safe while keeping it on the rare side. Then pat it dry and high heat sear it for a minute or two. It's the way I mostly cook my steaks. Sometimes bbq them.
I've found that mechanically tenderized meat and sous vide don't go well together (often comes out mushy or just doesn't have the right texture).

That's too bad. I've had good results with my sous vide. A bbq with direct and indirect heat is also a good secondary option.

Does Costco give full refund if I am not fully satisfied? I don't like too much fat on my meat

honestly, japanese wagyu is not really worth it. it's mostly fat. american wagyu would probably taste better since it has more meat

Chinese vinegar and chive oil as a sauce offsets the fat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9uBj3YqMp4
Part of a $295 tasting menu at Disney World hotel restaurant.
Wagyu begins a 7.53.
It looks like this cut is tenderloin. That cut has less fat.
You can find it at Great Western Steaks. Guga Food for 15off.
