21 Day Dry Aged Steaks
« Reply #-1 on: June 22, 2013, 10:21:30 AM »
Started with two 21 day dry aged rib eyes...



Coated on both sides with smoked salt, fresh ground pepper, and onion powder...



Memphis pellet grill is ready...



Two minutes rotate, two minutes flip...



Let them rest for a few minutes...



Interior shot...



And a proper beer to wash down a fine steak like that...



Wow what a great steak! It almost has a buttery feel to it as you chew. Very tender yet firm. Just a wonderful steak. If you have not given the UMAi bags a look you should. It is worth the time and easy to do ;)

I sure wish I had your patience for aging beef.  That looks fantastic.

Pappy, you just crack me up  :D :D  Maybe the temp pic was taken after the steak was put on...pellet grills do drop temps when the door is raised  ;D

It was right before putting them on. When it got close to 600F I grabbed the steaks and put them on. When I opened the hood the heat that came out reminded me of a kiln!

Does the dry aging change the taste much or just tenderness. I've seen where people say it tastes more buttery and richer. Sounds Devine !

Definently more buttery is a good way to describe it. The beef flavor is more intense and concentrated.

From what I understand there is a bacteria that grows in the beef when it is dry aging that breaks down enzymes in the meat changing the texture and flavor. The beef becomes a deeper color red and the fat becomes more solid and defined.

I am hooked on these steaks and it is not as expensive to do as you think.

I am sure Rummm could explain what happens in this process better than me ;)
