Bone-in ribeyes were invented so I would have a treat for my dog after every nice meal.

Tomahawk

It appears the length of the bone is the difference?

The urge to post that was strong, but I resisted.

Well your Chef buddy should have also paid more attention.

quote:

In wet cooking methods, such as braising and in slow cookers, where the meat is submerged and simmered for hours in liquid, the marrow can dissolve and can have a major impact on the flavor of the liquid and the meat. Braising liquids are often made with wine and/or water, both solvents that help pull out the marrow. Marrow is a major reason ossobuco, braised veal shanks, is such a wonderful treat (although gelatinized collagen is also important). This is where the idea that bones add flavor to meat began.

But bones contribute no significant flavor to meats cooked by dry cooking methods such as grilling, low and slow barbecue, oven roasting, or frying

Yeah, it really makes no sense how bone proximity to grilled meat would add any flavor. If anything, it takes away because the meat next to the bone can't be seared.

You also had to be coached on raising a dog. Your man card is up for further examination

Wow this board is getting more OTish by the day. One day praising and fondling over the trendy "reverse sear", and the next chastising over a bone in steak.

Why is any cut of meat served with a bone? Any piece can be deboned, yes?

Yep. The Food Lab has also debunked the bone-adds-flavor myth.
quote:

I cooked four identical roasts. The first was cooked with the bone on. For the second, I removed the bone, but tied it back against the meat while cooking. For the third, I removed the bone, and tied it back to the meat with an intervening piece of impermeable heavy-duty aluminum foil. The fourth was cooked completely without the bone.

Tasted side-by-side, the first three were completely indistinguishable from each other. The fourth, on the other hand, was a little tougher in the region where the bone used to be.

What does this indicate? Well, first off, it means the flavor exchange theory is completely bunk—the completely intact piece of meat tasted exactly the same as the one with the intervening aluminum foil. But it also means that the bone does serve at least one important function: it insulates the meat, slowing its cooking, and providing less surface area to lose moisture.

The bone makes it easier to drop in and take out of boiling water

How is this not common knowledge? I would think that those who post here a lot and tout themselves as knowledgeable foodies would be well aware of this.
