I finally got my dry aging project going. I think I got the right seal on the meat to the bag. Here is a shot of the first day right after sealing.

Here is a shot of day 13.

Sweet! That does look like great adhesion, so you should be good to go! You are in for a treat with this!
I am a week into my second aging, picked up a 15lb prime rib primal. Can’t wait for it!
-
This rib weighed in at 15.85 pounds. There are a couple of small areas where the bag is not completely tight to the meat but i got easily 80-85%. I am really looking forward to this!

If you want consistently better adhesion, slide it into a leg of pantyhose from the start. You can remove it after a week or leave it on the whole process. I gave not noticed any adverse effects either way.

Good tip walt! Will it make difference adding one now?

You will definitely be happy! Good stuff there!!

Probably not.

Probably not.
What do you mean, Walt? ???
-
He asked if it would make a difference applying panty hose at this point. Probably not.
Now i see the apparent conflict if applied to your comment.

Finished my 35 day dry age and the results were terrific! I will definately do this again. The increased tenderness and enhanced flavor profile are worth the wait. I ended up with 10 pounds of meat after trimming.

Smoked a dry aged prime. Wow! If you have been on the fence about dry aging, just do it. You will not regret it!

That looks wonderful! I cut a small roast for the thing! Can’t wait to try it and your post has pushed me to plan it!
