I can do the tenderloin. I can get off at 6pm today. Let me know a time after that and I can swing up there after work.

I got one from Jedi a while back, that he got from you, and have yet to defrost it.

I did however eat a steak from the ones bcoop had, and it was a mighty fine Ribeye.

Can I just cut these up and freeze them, or do I need to age them? Meat noobie.LOL

And to add to that......how exactly do you age them?

[Hines57]

Ok so I don't want to chime in here to much as there is alot of different opinions when it comes to aging meat . Some say leaving it in a freezer longer helps while others argue it stops the aging process. Some say to age properly you must keep at an optimal temp and never frozen like our meat coolers. Most of the meat I give out will already be aged a week or so . Now.. Does it taste different . I guess it's really up to the person . If I have misspelled or made no sense I'm sorry I'm typing on my iPhone

That's a loaded question. When you pick them up they will be refrigerated (not frozen), and cryovac'd. At the very least, you need to let it age in the cryovac for a MINIMUM of 21 days.

Beyond that, there is two ways to age. Wet age, and dry age, and they are two different processes to do so. This is to be done in addition to aging in the cryovac. I'll post up some good links on the processes later. Most will find it difficult to wet or dry age properly at home, but for the nuts like me, you'll find a way to make it work.

I couldn't have said that better.

Ok, so what you let it sit on your counter for 21days? I have no idea about this aging thing.... and Im wanting to buy some of hines' meat so I'll need to know what to do.

Thanks
