Whats the proper temp and time for aging steaks. Too late for the strips but might try it with a whole ribeye in a few weeks.

    easiest thinjg is to wet age those. just leave them in the coldest part of the fridge (down low in the back, usually) in the cryovac. alton brown lets them go six weeks, believe it or not. and that's what he admits even after the lawyers have parsed it.

    dry aging is a bit different.

    i'll send you an email. i honestly find it cheaper, easier and better to buy dry aged, even at 20 bucks a pound.

    yeah. i suppose you can wet age steaks. but you can't dry age steaks, you'd do the whole primal in that case

    Hey Stike, with as many requests as you get for aging steaks, have you considered setting up a blog or similar write up? Your info is always good, and I would like to read up on aging the primals.
