PREPARING THE MARINADE In a medium bowl, add the beef stock, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Whisk all ingredients together. This is your marinade.Place the Fullblood Wagyu top round roast in a large resealable plastic bag, and pour in the marinade.

PREPARING THE HERB BUTTER In a bowl, mix the softened unsalted butter with the chopped chives, parsley, and tarragon.Add the minced garlic, minced shallot, a pinch of kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, and the lemon zest to the bowl. On a 12 inch x 12 inch piece of plastic wrap, roll up the butter into a 1 1/2 inch to 2 inch log.Place the wrapped butter log in the refrigerator until ready to use.

PREPARING THE CRISPY FRIED SHALLOTS In a large bowl, combine the cut shallots and buttermilk. Let them sit for 30 minutes.

Bring a heavy-bottom sauce pot and vegetable oil to 360°F.Fry the shallots in batches until golden brown. Sprinkle the fried shallots with kosher salt while hot.

PREPARING THE FULLBLOOD WAGYU TOP ROUND ROAST About 1 hour before cooking, remove the top round roast from the bag and discard the marinade.Allow the roast to dry, and bring it to room temperature.

Then, flip it over, place the heavy skillet on top, and sear the other side for 5 minutes.Place the cast iron pan (with the top round roast) in the oven.
