Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop Celebrates National Wagyu Day on June 21 With a Free American Wagyu Sandwich Offer

LAS VEGAS, June 21, 2024 (Newswire.com) - Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop is excited to celebrate National Wagyu Day on June 21 by offering a special treat to its customers. Fans of the renowned sandwich franchise can enjoy a free small American Wagyu sub, or any sub of their choice, by signing up for Capriotti’s text offers at capriottis.com.

In a recent survey of 1,500 Americans, only 35% of people have ever eaten American Wagyu. In the survey, 55% of those who have tasted American Wagyu recall their first time having it was at a steakhouse. With its permanent menu offering of four craveable American Wagyu sandwiches, Capriotti’s makes the premium protein more accessible to all and wants America to know more about it.

National Wagyu Day on June 21 is a celebration of the famous Japanese beef known for its exceptional marbling and exquisite taste. To educate America on the favorite meat among food enthusiasts and connoisseurs worldwide, Capriotti’s is teaching fans and their taste buds all about American Wagyu through its “Wagyu U” content series on two popular social media platforms. 

The first three Wagyu U lessons are:

• Wagyu is pronounced “WAA ᐧ gyoo.” In Japanese, “Wa” means “Japanese” and “gyu” means “cow.”
• American Wagyu is a crossbreed of purebred Japanese Wagyu and primarily American Black Angus, combining the best traits of both breeds. 
• A select few quick-service restaurants offer the premium protein, including a selection of four original sandwiches at Capriotti’s.

All American Wagyu beef at Capriotti’s comes from Snake River Farms, the pioneer in American Wagyu. Snake River Farms livestock are raised on ranches throughout the Northwest and their proprietary herd of American Wagyu cattle is featured on the menus of the finest restaurants and specialty retailers around the world — including Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop.

Capriotti's decision to allow customers to experience American Wagyu for free is a testament to its passion for premium ingredients and delicious flavors.

“By giving customers the opportunity to savor the taste of American Wagyu beef for free on National Wagyu Day, Capriotti's aims to treat our fans to an exceptional experience that will leave them craving more,” said Ashley Morris, CEO of Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop. “By celebrating National Wagyu Day in this special way, we’re reaffirming our position as a leader in the premium sandwich industry.”
