1st SRF dry-aged rib steak

JohnEggGio

32oz prime, dry-aged, bone-in rib steak.  Bought two on sale from SRF.  Unwrapped one yesterday, gave it about 30 hours in the fridge.   Gonna give it about 90 minutes on the kitchen counter to come up in temperature a bit.  The steak came perfectly trimmed - a beautiful piece of meat.

Recognizing the grandeur of the steak, the dear wife suggested it deserved Artemis as an accompaniment - I decided the Artemis deserved Woodford Reserve as a companion...   A much better than average Sunday dinner is underway.

I’ve decided to go T-Rex, or forward sear with this first steak.  I think it gives me better control of the final temperature of the finished product.

Gotta love her...the dear wife came down to the kitchen, announced she wants a pasta side dish, put on a pot of water to boil...  I hadn’t yet lit the egg.  Bless her heart.  Cheers!

The sauce, by the way, mine - homemade - we love it.  I’ve grown fond of steak and spaghetti!

I told the dear wife I was worried about the cook, because I had to report to the forum...she said, “you nailed it!”.

Steak was maybe best ever...moist, tender...plenty of beefy flavor.  Definitely a splurge, but didn’t waste my $ here.  Would buy again.

Ciao for now!

Sorry about the order of things not being perfect...  Enjoying the WR!

Just wondering if you don't mind telling - what did that meat cost you?

I said "God Da-n, God Da-n!"  Congrats on bringing it home.  Your wife is quite perceptive-yes, you nailed it.  Great cook and result right there.

@RRP - here's a link to SRF's dry-aged offerings:

Recently SRF offered a discount on various cuts of beef.  Don't know if the above were included.  FWIW-
