Don't try to eat a lot of red meat anymore, but if I do it's as good as I can find. If you're going to ingest that much saturated fat it might as well be good  |
Sometime before I can no longer afford shopping at Whole Foods I am going to buy some of the aged beef. I stare at it in Hingham when the wife and I go shopping there every couple of weeks. I have watched specials on the aging/drying out process and find it very interesting. Slice of just a sliver and your right into some awesome meat. Emeril Lagasse chats it up quite a bit.
