Whole ribeye cutting.

Car Wash Mike

I had a whole CAB choice ribeye wet aging in the fridge for 30 days. Any last minute thoughts before it meets Mr. Knife. I plan on having 1 nice prime rib out of this also.[p]Mike

mad max beyond eggdome,[p]A nice thick ribeye tonight. The rest are going into a food saver.
I'm trying to decide if I want the prime rib of the short end or not. I'm leaning the on the other end.
$12.99 lb, I wasn't there and almost fainted. This little jewel cost $4.99 lb. Couldn't pass it up.[p]Mike

stike,
I guess I used a bad choice of words. Thanks for correcting me. It should be choice ribeye roast.[p]CWM

stike, You can get a prime rib roast from a side of beef that has been graded choice, select or a grade even lower! The term, prime rib refers to the type of cut, not the grade of the meat. Prime rib is defined as coming from the area between the 6th and 12th ribs, inclusive. This term defining the cut was established long before the USDA's grading system.

Car Wash Mike,
I'd like to hear whether you think the wet aging was worth the wait. I bought one of these several months ago and cut it up without aging. Had the meatcutter make a nice sized roast and steaks about 1 3/4. Used the foodsaver on everthing. Now down to the last couple of steaks. The roast was great. The steaks are good, but I'm wondering whether the next one should sit in the cryo for a while.

katman,
The store I bought this in ages their beef 30 days before preparing for the case. They had a sale and I bought a whole ribeye, wish I would have bought 2. The ribeye I had tonight was great.
If you buy a whole ribeye, you need to find the pack date from the meat cutter. It is not on the package, just the box.[p]Mike
