He said after 21 days the USDA Choice Ribeye he aged was every bit as good as USDA Prime.


My thoughts is that is a lot of time and space to take up in the fridge, vs just paying more for prime to begin with or be happy with choice. Now if it was better than prime it might be worth it for me...

I do love dry aged beef, but admit I have a hard time sacrificing the space in the fridge, investing in the bags and doing all the trimming to remove the outer crust once the aging has completed. We're paying about $6-7/lb for Choice and $13-15/lb for Prime locally. I guess if you had space and he's right that Choice compares to Prime it may be worth it? I may see if I can steal a steak or two from his project and see if they are really worth the effort.
