I was in the Whole Foods on Lemmon yesterday and noted some dry-aged steaks at the meat counter. They were a little pricey ($23/lb for NY Strip) but not out of line with WF's other meat. It's the first I've seen of this at a grocery store in Dallas, though perhaps I haven't looked hard enough, or maybe I've missed something obvious. My usual grocery shopping is done at Fiesta, but I get to CM Dallas and WF Lower Greenville somewhat regularly. Are there other grocery stores and/or butchers selling dry-aged steaks on the east side of the Metroplex?

It's in Plano, but Hirsch's has dry aged prime beef for sale. most of the time, you need to order it in advance because of the demand, but you can sometimes find it in the butcher's case.

I went to a local butcher in Bryan--bought a whole rib eye--he weighed it and charged me , then age it 21 days--it lost a little over 10% weight--great steaks--he even trimmed and cut them. Check your locals out --you may be surprised--mine cost about $11.00/lb and are excellent!!(It was USDA Choice)
