Re:42 Day Prime Ribeye

[Steven Almas]

Actually my cost calculation is off from above. I thought I paid 11.65/lb for the ribeye, but I actually paid 10.65/lb. So my overall cost was 14.91/lb after waste and shrinkage.

I usually purchase my meats at Costco. The one I shop at is close to some really upscale neighborhoods and they seem to always have some prime in the case. I was there just after Christmas and they had prime strips and sirloin. I didn’t see any prime ribeyes on this trip, but they normally have at least a couple.

I don’t know why anyone would buy prime tenderloin or brisket, but they always seem to have those too.
