sub primal cap steak

All the pics of these Ribeye Cap Steaks are making Costo call my name! BUT , I am wondering if I can just get a cryo whole prime ribeye and just cut my own cap steak off of it. I was thinking about breaking it down into cap steak , beef tips , and ribeye fillets. Any thoughts or suggestions ?

Well thought out plan. Go for it. I myself am far too lazy to do so. These being readily available, at Costco, I just like buying them and cooking them.

I think that would work.

Here is a vid showing how ti seperate.

@SmokeyPitt - great video. Whole lot easier than deboning a chix...may have to give it a run. Thanks for posting.

Timing is everything-have a four bone rib (choice) roast hanging around for a Sunday cook. So, inspired I gave it the knife as described above. Below is the salvaged rib eye cap. (picture quality a combination of operator and phone).

I will taste test it next week but I am pleased with the raw result.

@XLentEGG and @NorthPilot06 - thanks. The proof will be in the taste test but given the relative ease of butchering, I am planning to " go for it" with every prime rib roast from here on out. I'm sure no one will miss the cut from the roast.

This came off of my 19.71lb costco Prime , Cryo ,Ribeye that I picked up this morning. Still have to cut the rest into fillets :-)

Way to go-definitely not that challenging especially if I can pull it off. Great result.
