Re:WOWSER – changed opinion on a 60 day aging effort

[Ron Pratt]

Thanks – it really was very tender plus delicious! I had alluded in another post to planing to use my new JACCARD to further assure tenderness, but instead of using the J before it went in the “hot tub” I tried it after the hour. I practically “squished” that chunk to only 3/4″ thick on just one try with my new J! Lesson learned…Do it COLD!!!

BTW I called that prime as the cut itself implies that, but it really was just a center section of a sub-primal of choice beef I bought from SAMS and aged for 60 days in a Drybag. Granted I sorted through a bunch of primals in the display case to find the best marbling on the ends, but this tender and delicious results came from choice – not prime! It’s still Sunday so my confession counts doesn’t it? :laugh:

And lastly – May 31 will be day 45 of another I have been aging and I think I’m going to 60 days with this one as well!
