December 29, 20204 yr Cooked perfect and it was good, but honestly I can't say it is worth the money. I've gotten prime strips at Kroger that were better. Oh well.

When semi-defrosted, they are perfect for a reverse sear.

December 29, 20204 yr Got my dad some SRF steaks for Christmas. He said let's have a couple before the game. If I fuck them up there will be no money shot and no post saying they were so good I forgot to take a pic. I will just hang my head in shame. How are you cooking them?

Yeah for that price, you can get a professional chef to prepare one for you, have a hot waitress bring it to you, have a bus boy clear your plate for you, and have a bunch of other shit available to have with it, including a full bar. Also known as a very nice steakhouse.

It was a good piece of meat but I've had better strips at Ruth's chris or Mortons. And that isn't saying much. Maybe my expectations were too high but fuck. I really thought it was going to make it move a little. Maybe I'll bitch to them but it isn't really my style.

No doubt. The best deal at Central Market in my opinion, is their Prime Top Sirloin that sells anywhere from $9.99 (special) to $11.99 (normal price), and the quality is just the same as the more expensive cuts.

December 31, 20204 yr Popular Post Costco Wagyu NY StripsI think they were $25-27/lb. which is the same price as Central Market prime. They also had some prime strips for $11/lb. I bought 4 of those and froze them. There was waaaaay more marbling in the Wagyus, as there should be. Pre-cook/seasoningPost ovenTemp graph. I preheated the oven to 225 and turned it down to 170. Searing - My grill gets hot AF. It’s a NG Weber Summit. I bought a new regular and hooked it up to propane. NG orifices are way bigger than LP orifices. Post searMoney shot
January 1, 20214 yr Only got one pic of the prime rib roast I did for Christmas this year, did reverse sear in the oven and came out perfect. Can’t wait to make another one

I posted pics in the shit I cooked lately thread but the prime1 Picanha I cooked last night was maybe the best beef I’ve ever done. It was $7/lbAnd I’ve also cooked a lot of high end shit. YMMV
January 6, 20214 yr I needed some bones for a stock and Kroger had a choice bone in roast for 4.99/lb. I cut off the horn and made two ribeyes out of it. Pretty good deal for me. Wife had the strip.Seasoned and straight to the grill. Both turned out great. My wife complained the strip was over seasoned... women, am I right?

January 14, 20214 yr grassfed steak is the bees knees. for me its characterized by gummy yellow fat. theyre very good when cooked more rare, compared to grain fed beef. the really graininess texture of the example above - i dunno maybe more due to the cut or storage and aging cycle or something - but thats not something id immediate associate with grassfed

January 14, 20214 yr I don't dislike grass fed. But it's definitely different. It's definitely earthier and grainier. Sometimes, it just sounds good, so we'll stray from the standard Prime / or Snake River Wagyu ribeye or strip. I was solo a the weekend after Thanksgiving at the ranch and did a great grass fed strip over an oak fire in the fire pit. Just seemed to work.
January 14, 20214 yr As some of you know I raise and sell grass finished beef. If you’re used to grain finished it’s definetly going to be an acquired taste. For one a grass finished steer is going to be quite a bit older than a grain finished steer because of the time it takes to get to weight and have much less fat/marbling do to it being finished in a pasture versus penned up. Best steak you can have though will come off a dairy cow. Angus bull on a Jersey cow will produce very good beef. The color of the fat on a dairy cow is beautiful if fed right. Meanest bull you will ever come across though is a Jersey bull.
