I bought 16ish pounds of ribeye meat for about 10$ a pound and sliced my own steaks. What do you guys think, I think these is pretty awesome considering ribeyes can usually be around 16-18 lbs

    I cut them thicker but to each their own.

    Pretty good. I’d opt for a touch thicker (that’s what she said) and use a vacuum sealer.

    This is the only way I buy steaks now. It’s easy, it’s cheaper, and you make them as thin or as thick as you like. Please the rib roasts give you some beef ribs on the side.

  4. Vacuum sealer is only around $30 and makes a huge difference.

  5. If it were me I’d maybe go a little thicker (those look like they’re similar to the thickness of standard grocery store steaks, so why not just buy the pre-sliced ones?). But wow, looks like you’ve got some good cooking results! So you’re not doing anything wrong. 🙂

    Gonna make for a lot of great meals! But if you’re spend that kinda money I would suggest a vacuum sealer, will keep the frozen ones in great condition a lot longer

    Agreed that I like mine thicker. But not a criticism, personal preference.

    When I do this I usually put a fun marinade on a couple of them. I prefer S&P only, but for a fun Friday night with friends it’s nice to have a teriyaki/mexican/etc steak in the freezer.

  8. I’m the cook in our family so I cook what the kiddos want the most and these would be gone less then two weeks

    You really need to be vacuum sealing those steaks

    I know it’s cheap but if you can afford it buy pastured beef. Don’t support these factory cattle warehouses where the cows are living subpar lives

    Those would keep much much better vacuum sealed.

    Looks like select. It’s one of the easiest sub primals to fabricate. Some of the bigger eyes are less desirable to me because I generally like my ribeyes pretty thick.
    Good job 👍

    I do the same thing and love this!!! Great job

  14. Given that pre-cut Costco meat is blade tenderized bacteria wasteland, your attempt is amazing, and the cook is spot on (maybe a bit over for personal preference but whatever)

    It’s just fine. You’re yourself and you should try out different slices, thicker, thinner, cook more, cook less and see what your favorite is.

    Did you salt them before freezing . Makes a huge difference

    Use wax or parchment paper, then foil. Metal will cause discoloration & sometimes an off taste

    I applaud you! It looks like a heck of a great investment.

  19. You still have silverskin that needs removed on that first pic.

    Is there a trick slicing them so uniformly?

    IDK, I’m distracted by that dirty chair
