Title: All Meat Is Aged
Post by: Sully on October 08, 2008, 09:36:10 pm

I read that all meat in the store is aged to make the cutting and butchering easy.

True?

All high-quality meats are aged for 3, sometimes even 4 weeks. But I think they are all left in a chilled freezer-like environment, during that time. There's no way that they would allow meat to age to "high-meat" status.

So all meats are aged usually?

I would like to taste some right after the kill.

I've had some that was fresher than others.  Never could tell unless it was meat that stayed hot way too long.


I might try it.  If I ever figure out how to make my own meat locker, I'd definitely try some longer-term aging.

Somethings I found on aging.  The second one almost seems useful
