Matsusaka beef (松阪牛, Matsusaka Ushi) is a type of beef from the Matsusaka region of Japan. It is one of the most famous beef types in Japan, alongside Kobe beef and Yonezawa beef.

History[edit | edit source]

Matsusaka beef has a long history in Japan. The Matsusaka region has been raising cattle since the Edo period, and the beef has been popular in Japan for centuries.
