Thinking about buying a whole ribeye and dry-aging it for a few weeks. Any help with this would be great.

Apparently some dude on here tried it out in his fridge and it turned out really good. Someone who knows the thread or has the pic of the beautifully aged steaks should be along shortly with the proof.

I've never done it, but I went down the youtube rabbit-hole one night in anticipation of doing it. There are a lot of good videos on there regarding dry-aging whole ribeyes. LINK

Did one recently with the umai bag. Turned out awesome. Let it go for 45 days. One day when I have time to figure out how to upload pics I will start a thread.

You should just pay for the dry-aged steak at a steakhouse than do it yourself

Pros
Steak is aged properly and delicious
No hassle for you
Enjoy the dinner out

Cons

None

Wet aging is easier.

Dry needs a dedicated fridge that you never touch.

Unless personally dry aging a ribeye is on your culinary bucket list, I would eliminate all the bs and purchase one directly from a butcher or wherever you might source them from. Rouse's has them available all the time for instance.

Yes, and you really don't want to know anymore.

I can't unsee those toes.

Damn, I was oblivious to the toes. WAS.

OP.

Rule 1 for all aging. Dry or wet. Only age uncut steak. The entire cut.

I have done it in the fridge with a prime tenderloin. It turned out good. Wrap it in cheese cloth and change it every couple days. Do this for 2-3 weeks.
ETA: I WOULD NOT age individual steaks like CAD did. That's asking for trouble.
