    I have a theory ... since food channel viewers cannot actually taste and rate the food they see, they subconsciously get a bit frustrated and savagely critique the host instead. But, if the host could magically give the viewers a bite of each dish through the camera, viewers would absolutely adore him/her.

    So I left some nice beef in the fridge and forgot about it. Some fruit made some slight punctures in the package and this was right after I had cleaned out my fridge. After looking at a bit I found that the air was being dragged over the box of baking soda deodorizing and drying it then into the steak. I found it around 3-4 months after it had gone in (90-120days) and it was super funky but great. That was my accidental dry aged steak, I'm still amazed it didn't go bad without salt or proper protection. Props to the local butcher at my super market for keeping an extremely sanitary butchery, thanks to my girlfriend for making me clean my fridge, and thanks to my mom for recommending I keep a box of baking soda in there. I think without the combination of all three of those things I it would not have come out the way it did. I trimmed it up added a bit of seasonings and decided to give it a try since I had actually been wanting to try dry aged beef my self but thought I had to get all kinds of things, get high quality meat and treat it perfectly to keep it from going bad.

    Nick - Good video. I had a 192 - Day Dry- Aged Steak at the Breslin a couple of weeks ago. In my opinion it wasn't as buttery tender as I was anticipating from everything that I have read and seen about lengthy dry-aged steaks. Don't get me wrong, I thought it was delicious, but I think I was expecting more from a steak aged 192 days. Nonetheless... It was a great experience.

      @Grieverexx Před 6 lety

      Don't try any dry aged past 28 days. In my opinion, after 28 days it tastes rather too dry since there's barely any moisture left and you'll just have a something with a texture of a steak but a taste of jerky.

    • @Grieverexx
      @Grieverexx Před 6 lety
