Halloween is the perfect time to get creative in the kitchen! Whether you’re hosting a party or just looking to try something new, these three fun recipes using Wagyu beef and Berkshire pork will add a delicious twist to your celebration!

Ingredients:

• 1lb Wilders Wagyu ground beef
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 garlic cloves (minced)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Marinara sauce (for serving)
• Spaghetti (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine Wagyu ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Parmesan, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
3. Shape the mixture into golf-ball-sized meatballs and place them on the baking sheet.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. To serve, place the meatballs atop a “nest” of spaghetti and pour marinara sauce over them. For a spooky twist, use mozzarella balls as "eyeballs" on top of the meatballs by adding small pieces of black olives for pupils.

Ingredients:

• 1 Pack Wagyu Snack Sticks (choice of flavor!)
• 2 sheets puff pastry (thawed)
• 1 egg (beaten)
• Mustard (for eyes)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
2. Roll out the puff pastry and cut it into thin strips.
3. Cut each Snack Stick in half
4. Wrap each snack stick with puff pastry strips, leaving a small space at the top to create a face.
5. Place the wrapped hot dogs on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with beaten egg, and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
6. Once cooled, dot mustard onto the top of each hot dog to create “eyes” and complete your mummy look.

Ingredients:

• 1- Wilders Berkshire Boston Butt
• 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite kind)
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
• Slider buns (preferably soft, for a “brain” effect)
• 1 small purple cabbage (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the pork: In a slow cooker, combine the Berkshire pork shoulder with BBQ sauce and apple cider vinegar. Cook on low for 8 hours or until tender and shreddable.
2. Once the pork is cooked, shred it using two forks, and mix it back into the sauce.
3. Assemble the sliders: Fill each slider bun with a generous helping of the pulled pork.
4. For the spooky "brain" look, top each slider with thinly sliced purple cabbage to resemble veins. Slightly press the top bun down to create "brain-like" wrinkles in the bread.
