What Is Wagyu Inside Skirt?
Wagyu inside skirt (ウチハラミ / Uchiharami) is cut from the diaphragm muscle, on the inner side of the rib cage. It is a thin, intensely flavoured cut with a high fat content and pronounced beefy character — quite different in texture from loin cuts, but prized in yakiniku culture for its rich, satisfying flavour profile. Quick-sear applications over high heat are the standard preparation.
For importers, inside skirt is one of the most price-accessible wagyu cuts, making it ideal for building volume in casual dining and yakiniku channels without committing to the price points of premium loin cuts.
