OMG - I might as well type up my obituary right now after the steak frying thread.

The great think about being a Chef is I do all the cooking, hence I don't have a huge appetite, and I give away the leftovers to the family.

[mattdavis11]

We age for 28 wet, and 21 dry.






Don't forget to rub minced garlic and EVOO all over it.

Man I'm hungry.

I will try that technique next time. Looks great, I'm just choice that is USDA Prime!

[mattdavis11]

Don't rub it down to age, but while seasoning.

I hit the jackpot on them. They were $8.99lb. I bought 9 ranging from 16 to 22lbs, three disappeared quickly.

Try the reverse sear on the BGE. Google it and the BGE forums will take you where you need to go.
I did one a while back for the family and I have never ever seen my mom eat that much in one sitting.
It was a little more done than I personally like but when I was growing up I never knew that meat could be any other colour than grey. My parents are in their 80's and always cooked to well done or charcoal...

I have another one that I bought for a family event that was postponed so into the freezer it went. Need to get that cooked. I don't like to freeze such a good chunk of cow but it needed to happen.

Edit: Here is one link I used when shopping for a technique.

I know nothing about direct heat smokers (from the bottom) but side draft is king.

I'm lucky enough to have a butcher that dry ages ALL his beef! You'd be amazed how much better even ground beef is when its from a dry aged side of beef.

Not sure I'd make ground beef from a piece of dry aged beef... it seems like it would be easy to cause a little gastric distress...

Then again, I eat at some questionable Asian places and put up with the results.

If I had a hunk of meat like that, it would already be cut into thick steaks, grilled (rare plus, thank you) and eaten.

2013?

Looks all good - except for the prices paid. Makes my chased down wild game almost cost effective.
