Dry Aged Bone In Ribeye

Going to pick up 2 16-20 oz 1-1 1/2" thick from whole foods tomorrow for Sat cook! going to do reverse sear...cook at 250 indirect. how long do you think it would take to reach 125 IT?

then bump up to 600 or so to sear for about 90 seconds!

I don't cook steaks a lot so searching for advice on time to get to 125 IT?

Thanks in advance for any info you could pass along!

    Please don't be offended, but 1 -1 1/2" dry aged steaks are going to cook VERY FAST! The temp and time you asked about means they will be charred! I'd go for a 1 hour hot tub instead and then just a quick high temp sear!

    Then may I add this little bit more? If your meat was dry aged and it was that thin it tells me it probably was "aged" after it was cut with a butcher's bone saw meaning it wasn't really aged for too long. Did they tell you how long or just advertise as "aged"? Trust me it makes a BIG difference!

    Good question! last weekend I was in Whole foods and they had all of there dry aged beef in a unit behind the counter and they were advertising dry aged beef on sale for 8.99 pound so I thought I would go back this Sat and get me a couple bone in ribeye. I would think it is dry aged! I guess i could tell them to cut it as thick as i want it! I think 1 1/2" would be thick enough for me! thanks for the info!

    I'm certain it was aged as a sub-prime then trimmed and cut after whatever time 27-45 days.  I've never seen anyone dry age individual steaks except maybe Stike as a science experiment (he loves to eat rotten meat).

    Our Harris teeter has a dry age display with all kinds of stuff in it. All of which is noted as "ready" soon. I'm hoping to get a butcher on a good day and offer to take their "expired" meat off their hands for $1/lbs.

    If you cook it to 125 it will climb to 130/132 while it rest to get up to 600 and you will be lucky to keep it Medium? I'm a rare to medium rare guy and I would pull it at 110/115 the open the egg to 600 then sear for 60/90 seconds a side to 130 max then let it rest. Good cow right there!

    yeah - you couldn't touch that around here under $20 a pound and that plus it being a bone in was why I was questioning just how aged it was.
