Is this wrong?

So I got a dry aged prime bone-in strip for myself and decided to buy a choice bone-in strip for the wife. I mean he only had one prime strip left and why should we both suffer, right? The other little piece is a small cut of boneless short rib he gave me to try on the grill.

Works for me. Did you tell her? Are you able to answer this? If so, all worked out.......Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

Lovely marbling. So not wrong.

"Honey, would you like this dry steak (leave) out a few words (aged, prime) or this beautiful steak of choice?"

idevl, I think there is guilt involved leading to the post. Hmmmmmm
Now go have a double of that single malt and get on with cooking. After its all eaten, you have nothing to talk about.

My father once explained to me the philosophy of splitting something (say, like a candy bar) with a friend. First, you cut the bar in half doing the best you can. Now, invariably, one side will be a little bit bigger than the other. But you offer your friend the choice. If he's a good friend, he'll see you did the best you could and select the slightly smaller half.I'm not sure how any of that applies here, but take it for what it's worth."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

Not wrong at all! I guess you could go halfsies with the two steaks...Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

Does she read this forum? You may be screwed

Prime vs Choice... I've had choice steaks that were right up there with any prime I paid for out. I think it has to do with the individual cow and how well you nail the cook, more so than the FDA grade

Cook the prime rare and the choice to medium well. Should make life easier for you!Extra Large, Large, and Mini. Tucker, GA

You're just shielding her from all that extra fat, right. Who wants all that extra fat running through their steak anyway? Enjoy with a clear conscience.
-
Verdict in, both cooked to perfect medium rare. The prime was more tender, but the choice was like butter. Both had an unbelievable flavor and the prime cost $9 per pound more. So, choice wins by a landslide and my butcher is always pushing this on me anyway. I love my butcher.

Also, that piece of short rib was a winner and my kids ate every bit of it.
