Hey RG. That really looks good. Seems like a lot of work though. I see u went to Restaurant Depot. I like their meats and fish. Where Is yours. Mine is in Pompano Beach.
There are 3 of them in the Metro Atl area. I go to the one in Atlanta. There is one in Norcross and one in Marietta (been open for about a year, never been to it)
It's not really a lot of work, it's time consuming as far as just the wait. I will say this, I am in the minority here I'm sure, but I don't think it's really worth the costs involved.
I know dry aged steaks at a restaurant are expensive but a dry aged steak at home ain't exactly cheap! I bought that whole subprimal for something like $8.18/lb. I know it's choice, I know it's Angus but that's still quite a bit for steak considering that usually you don't buy 16 pounds of steak, you buy maybe 3-4 pounds or less. Considering the weight loss while dry aging and there's a lot of waste from cutting off the tails and trimming the funk off of it, the yield is not very high. The costs of the Umai bags is another thing to consider.
It's an expensive endeavor and while it does taste good, I personally didn't find it to be worth the expense or the wait. If I do another, it will be because of my wife, she really liked them!
