Would You Eat 127-Day-Old Steak Aged in Whiskey? — The Meat Show

I'm here at the Beatrice in didn't a good friend and eat so consumed host cat Liddell and we're gonna try angie mars 120-day whiskey dry-aged i definitely think so this looks like a large dry-aged rib section it's a lot more than that alright so tell us all about this we've actually aged this in a whiskey this is a technique that I picked up in Paris from a butcher by the name of Yves Marilla Gordon yeah he actually cooked me a steak and it was kind of like mistake that changed my life and that's how I really really like fell in love with dry aged beef we've aged this one in Jack Daniels and this today is about a hundred and twenty seven days old are there a number of days that you'd want to stop back I would love to age something 200 days I think it would be delicious around 160 days that's kind of like the sweet spot for this so tell me how you actually whiskey agent what does that I can tell we wrap this in claws that are saturated with whiskey it actually absorbs the whiskey we actually tend to lose less mass you're still expelling we're still expelling moisture so URIs right you can see that there is mold on it yes if you were to actually compare you know a state of this size that is this old it would be a lot smaller or probably be about 10 to 15 percent smaller tell us how you gonna actually prepare this we are going to be trimming all of this I will actually render this this fat down and it will go into potatoes or vegetables I think you know if we're gonna eat vegetables we might as well cook them and dry aged beef fat right with this technique you get a little bit of that whiskey flavor without the bite of the alcohol [Music] here we have the whiskey aged steak the sense of the dry aged beef it's like sort of sweet funky smell just emanates it's so such a powerful aroma it's so riot almost hard to describe because it's not really a scent that you find all that often it's not even a cent you find in steak houses because the flavor of this it's it's a it's a magnitude sweeter than most dry aged beef so you're getting those blue cheesy funky scope notes but there's like a thorough vanilla reef flavor above that right I think let's just start with everything right let's just eat everything if you can see this we have the two muscles we have the eye and then we have the cap right here so tell me about this piece of meat so this is my favorite muscle on the whole lineup it's a very fibrous yeah but it's very also very tender and because of the dry aging process it gets those in the best possible way mm-hmm I would say that this is hands down no questions best please me to pad your that's quite a statement Wow that tastes like magic it's sort of gamey but it's much deeper in flavor exactly and it's rounded off with that vanilla lean honey you know it doesn't openness there too well what's interesting about the way that umami forms on a piece of meat like this is on the flesh breaks down once the animal is dead and amino acids form and one of the components of those amino acids is glutamate which is actually the same compound that's in MST that's that's what they extracted the hyper flavor right but this is natural form right so I've been really wanting to do this okay I don't even know if this is legal in every state but we're in New York and it's hopefully permissible so Dorset well I have to say this is one of the epic states of my life for sure it's a very very special thing for me I have to say there's nothing like this area not totally unique chinchilla thanks very much for watching you can catch Kat Odell on concerns how you can catch me on the Metro also has its limits it's a process and that process will have peaks and valleys in terms of style [Music]
