When heavyweight boxing legend “Iron Mike” Tyson and mixed martial arts superstar Colby Covington need to satisfy their cravings, they don’t head to Madison Square Garden but rather to Josh’s Premium Meats in South Miami.
Founder and owner Josh Pascual launched Josh’s Premium Meats in 2017 and the company’s growth has accelerated to the point where today he dominates the South Florida market in providing high-quality Waygu beef. It’s a family-run business; Josh’s mother Elizabeth and his best friend Adrian Fernandez also are actively involved.
Considered the gold standard among beef connoisseurs, Waygu yields a richer beef flavor and increased tenderness of each cut of meat. Japan, Australia and the United States are the world’s primary suppliers of Waygu beef.
Josh’s Premium Meats has become the go-to source of Waygu beef for dozens of South Florida restaurants and hundreds of households, not just in Miami but across the country.
“We pride ourselves on being one of Miami’s top Waygu suppliers,” Josh said. “Some of our house favorites include Waygu filets, ribeyes and skirt steaks, and our specialty salts and seasonings are also immensely popular. We offer same-day delivery from our flagship store in South Miami, which will soon be joined by two more locations in South Florida.”
Josh’s Premium Meats’ South Miami location is three times larger than his previous store and features many more items to help elevate customers’ steak experience. Josh enjoys sharing cooking techniques with his customers and introducing them to cuts of beef they haven’t yet tried. Some of the store’s biggest fans include players from the National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball and Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
Josh also gets a lot of love from alumni of his alma mater, Christopher Columbus High School.
“We participate in the Christopher Columbus Food and Wine Festival and other events because we owe a lot of our success to the education I received there,” Josh said.
One of the results of the pandemic is that people are grilling at home more often, as opposed to dining at restaurants. For meat lovers like Mike Tyson and Colby Covington, Waygu beef from Josh’s Premium Meats is the undisputed champion.
Josh’s Premium Meats is located at 7295 SW 57 Ave. in South Miami (Telephone 305-646-88717). Follow them on Instagram at @joshspremiummeats or visit them at joshspremiummeats.com.
