Yeah..you got a nice medallion..in the eye. Which any more is all I need for a dinner.

Those other pieces... ?

I might even consider grinding them and making a killer slider. Don't think that bad...I'm not sure what u paid...but I'm sure that eye..will satisfy your monies worth

Btw..I would not re-hydrate anything

Great, thanks for the additional thoughts! I was feeling pretty anti rehydrating, which is why I came to the experts here.

I paid all of $5, so I have a feeling I got my moneys worth just smelling the meat. I can't eat that much dry aged steak anyway, so the eye will be plenty. Anything I get from the rest will be a bonus.

I am not sure if he is still involved with the restaurant but I know that Adam Perry Lang set up the beef sourcing and dry aging operation at CarneVino, also at Robert's Steakhouse at the Penthouse Executive Club . Last I heard he was pretty busy with Barbecoa in London, partnered with Jamie Oliver.

I'm not sure... generally they would have a sign up for the breed, but in this case, it came straight from the fridge. I'll ask next time I swing by. It came from heritage meats, a great NYC butcher. It's the kind of place where you can't decide what you're going to cook until you're there, since you don't know what surprises they'll have in store. I went to pick up some pork chops, and left with cheeks and lamb heart recently.

They usually have a rack of dry aged rib steaks... last weeks were particularly great looking, but I didn't pick one up that day. Unfortunately, they were gone when I went back a couple days later. Photo attached to show off some more interesting marbling.
