Late July brings the best kind of heat—overflowing farmers markets, backyard grilling, and simple meals that let quality ingredients shine. And when you’ve got Wilders meats in the freezer, the only thing left to do is pair them with what’s fresh.
Here are a few easy, go-to ways to cook with Wilders this summer—no fluff, just good food made better with premium beef and pork
🍔 Wagyu Burgers + Grilled Corn & Tomato Salad
A juicy burger is always a win, and Wilders Wagyu ground beef makes a next-level version that doesn’t need much dressing up. Grill your patties, toast the buns, and serve with a side of grilled corn and cherry tomato salad tossed in olive oil, fresh basil, and a splash of red wine vinegar. Bright, bold, and perfectly balanced.
🥩 Wagyu Skirt Steak + Cucumber Herb Yogurt Sauce
Marinate Wilders Wagyu skirt steak in olive oil, lemon juice, and cracked pepper, then grill it hot and fast. Thinly slice and serve with a cool yogurt sauce made with chopped cucumber, mint, and dill. It’s light, fresh, and full of flavor.
🧅 Berkshire Bratwursts + Sautéed Squash and Onions
Slice up a few Wilders Berkshire pork brats and pan-sear until golden and crisp. Pair with yellow squash, zucchini, and sweet onions sautéed in butter and garlic. It’s quick, satisfying, and hits all the summer dinner marks.
🍉 Pork Baby Back Ribs + Watermelon & Pickled Okra
Smoke or grill Wilders Berkshire pork baby back ribs until fall-off-the-bone tender. Serve with cold watermelon slices and a side of pickled okra for a classic summer combo that’s just the right mix of sweet, smoky, and tangy.
