How does dry aging work?
• All beef should be dry aged for several weeks before it is cooked
• This allows the natural enzymes in the meat to break down muscle tissue
• Breaking down muscle tissue will help make the steak more flavorful and tender

Dry aged beef
• Most beef is wet aged and sealed in plastic wrapping, which seals in moisture and minimizes its weight loss
• Dry beef is uncovered and exposes to air allowing it to dehydrate and better concentrate the flavor
• Dry aging is more expensive than wet aged beef
