I got my kit and I’ve bagged my first cut of meat 🙂 A 12.5 lb choice bone-in ribeye. I put the meat, fat cap side up, on a cookie sheet suspended by a couple of water bottles, so there’s a good 2″ of air around it. Overnight the fridge got down to 33.8 degrees (temp of a glass of water per my thermapen) but it’s probably closer to 40 now that the door’s been open some. Hoping that it’s going to be OK. I think they put small compressors on these new refrigerators to save electricity so it takes a while to cool back down again.
Question: I know that I’m not supposed to use a dorm or beer fridge because of the lack of air circulation, but what if I put in a small fan to circulate inside? Something like a computer cooling fan.
Thanks
