Here are some fabulous dry aged Canadian Prime steaks seasoned with Barberians rub and garlic powder. Will go reverse sear.image
Also joining the party are my friend Mr. Brisket and his good friend Chuck roast. The chuck roast will be for Pepper wine beef. I am trying wine instead of stout beer.imageMr Brisket is on the left. More snap shots to come.

    There are too many white streaks in those steaks. That is a sign of early decomposition and should be considered dangerous. Ship to me and I will make sure they are properly cooked disposed of.

    Pepper wine beef has been pulled back in oven to thicken up a bit.
    @DMW thanks...your are true to your reputation of helping people out. I would ship them but chances are border guards would confiscate them for the same reason. ;)image

    Okay stuff just keeps coming. Heres my steak. I am embarrassed to say I love my steak well done, thats why I buy the most marbled steak I can, the other more important reason is...no one wants a bite. image

    Holy smokes! Canadians have more than just maple syrup and bacon. Those have got to be some of the prettiest steaks I have ever seen!!!

    Brisket and chuck look good too.

    @jls9595 thats funny. ^^^^^like.

    But to me well done is much more tender. When its red inside its like chewing gum and like i said nobody wants to try. My wife ate her stuffed chicken and didn't look at my plate once. When she does want a bite I say nah...."its dry". >:)

    @RRP good day. I have a local cheese boutique that's carrys Canadian Prime Dry Aged minimum 40 days. They sell their beef cheap for that quality. The boneless steaks are approximately $20lb and bone in $18lb. The other butchers that carry dry aged sell fir $25-30lb.

    @Tinyfish that is cheap, a local ranch here sells their 45 day dry aged for over $50 a pound. That is why I started doing it on my own

    Wow. That is cheaper then prime grade here (not 40day aged). The cheapest I have found prime angus here is $14.99 USD, after conversion for bone in you are at $14.22 USD for the 40day aged beef.

    Jamie, I assume you are referring to prime from Costco. If not where are you finding prime?

    wow what a beautiful steak! how did the pepper wine beef turn out?  I made the stout version in the past, and had way too much fat for our taste.  Guess I should have trimmed much better, biggest turnouff was that in fridge the leftovers had a solid .5 inch of white fat when chilled.  Yours looks great though so I am curious . .

    @NDG the few chuck roasts that I bought have no fat on the outside to speak of, no trimming required. Everything was going great till I went to get my red wine...opps no red wine. I had to use white wine instead. I used probably 200ml white wine 200ml beef broth (ml are canadian like oz's) and the rest of the recipe the same as the stout version. Turned out good, next time i will go all red wine no beef broth and adjust from there.

    And here is my brisket I cooked yesterday to reheat for a few week night dinners. The sliced brisket is cold going in the oven now. This is my first brisket cooked with no crutch, I must say it tastes great cold way better then the crutch method, must be the bark.image

    Great looking steaks... My better half likes her steak burnt (well done) too. Everytime I cook one for her I shed a tear. @-)

    Mama Husker has good taste. Like I said, you don't want a bite of her steak she gets it all to herself.
