I just sliced a 16.79 lbs. USDA Prime New York Strip into 21 steaks. When I was done, I had a good 6-7 ozs of tidbits left over. Kosher salt, ground black pepper, and granulated garlic for five minutes before throwing them into an ungreased cast-iron skillet that was smoking hot. They are fork tender and taste like I cooked them in butter. In about an hour, I'm going to be cooking steaks to order. This is some of the best steak I've ever eaten."Yeah, but never trust a Ph.D who has an MBA as well. The PhD symbolizes intelligence and discipline. The MBA symbolizes lust for power." -- Katy Lied

I got a rib roast at the store for cheap because the butcher got a little crazy with the saw. Here is a bird's-eye view of the roast while it is standing on its end; the cut is visible. Great marbling, though.

It was great. I also threw a loin strip roast on that was also on sale. I didn't take the time to tie it round, but it still came out OK.

57lbs untrimmed, 40lbs trimmed. At $9.30/lb, that is a lot of $$$ in trimmings.

For people looking for a good holiday roast, you'll get a better deal on pretty much anything than prime rib this time of year, though DT got a rockin deal at $9.30. The best prime rib alternative is the strip loin. An underdog cut is the Denver. It's thin like a brisket, but it is very tender, and can be grilled medium rare like the Tri-Tip. You'd probably have to go to a specialty meat shop for it, but it comes of the chuck roll and is very affordable. Last year I talked a friend of mine into going with a brisket for his company party because I knew he had a tight budget. He said his employees liked it just as much as prime rib. The short story is that everyone thinks they need to serve prime rib at company parties, so now is the time to get good deals, comparatively, on other cuts that are also very high quality.Last edited by cowboy; 12-03-2017, 06:42 AM.sigpic

Crock pot brisket at ward Christmas party.
I feel like I shouldn't complain, because strictly speaking, we got brisket. And yet, it feels like we went out of our way to assemble all of the components of a really solid dinner and deliberately decided not to follow through. Just, why?τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

I was told that Costco had prime brisket for $1.99 a pound right now. Anyone else see that? While prime rib is awesome, hard beat that brisket price for a big party.

DT you should post the after pics you shared on Instagram. Phenomenal results."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

At least 10 days in the fridge. Boneless beef will keep for 45-60 days from slaughter, and most beef hits the grocery store within 10 days of slaughter.sigpic
