You will be happy with the results. Do not worry if it has an off smell when you unwrap it. It is unlikely with only ten days aging, but after 40 days or so, wet aged beef will begin to smell. The smell dissipates after 30 minutes or so after unpackaging, and it is actually at this point that the beef is most tender. The problem is that it is also within a couple of weeks of going bad clear through, so it's best not to try pushing it to this point. Some restaurants are starting to dry-age beef for crazy long periods, like 4-6 months. They can do that because the beef will form a rind when it's not in a package. Still, it affects the flavor, and I'm not a fan of dry aging over 30-45 days.sigpic

I don't know if anyone else noticed, but Smith's in Northern Utah has USDA Choice whole bone-in prime ribs for $4.88/lb still in the cryovac bags today and tomorrow (actually yesterday, today and tomorrow )
I may be small, but I'm slow.

Welcome - I picked one up today before heading to work. I figure to cut in two and save one half for later.

Paging all dry-agers:
I have a 4-lb. roast and some ribeye steaks that I will prepare on the 25th. The sell-by date is the 22nd. Should I freeze the meat, or can I dry-age it? If so, do you remove it from the packaging?"What are you prepared to do?" - Jimmy Malone

The Prime Rib (and other beef) Thread
I don’t want mine to dry out and absorb fridge smells. Am I going to be ok leaving it in the packaging?
I did this a few years ago and it was great. But man I would hate to ruin this thing."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Saw a recipe on one of those semi-annoying 30-second cooking videos I’m trying tomorrow. Mix several herbs and spices with soft butter and coat the roast with it. Cook at 500 degrees for 5 mi Utes per pound. Turn off heat and let sit for two hours (don’t open oven door) slice and serve.Last edited by Green Monstah; 12-25-2017, 09:42 AM.Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.
