The Big Ole NJ Steak Thread

@NotJrvedivici

don’t believe the alcohol is going to penetrate the meat beyond the surface layer

I believe they preserved Lord Nelson’s body in a cask of brandy, so at least the steak won’t go bad.

@NotJrvedivici

I doubt the steak once finished has any flavor tones beyond that of any other dry aged steak of equivalent time frame.

Dry aging actually has mold and beneficial enzymes that are changing the flavor.

Alcohol would stop all those biochemical processes.

So I’m guessing it’s worse.
