Very nice. I’ve been wanting to get a whole one and cut my own steaks. Just haven’t pulled the trigger. Are you planning on vac bagging and freezing or are you planning on cooking them all

2 in the lodge skillet today (windy and rain today) and the rest in the freezer, I have another 6.5+ lbs chunk to cut up later this week. This is the only way I can easily get thick ribeye steaks here.
I scored a new contact this week in the way of a butcher 2 miles away that can get whatever I need and it’s so fresh that it’s still warm. Cows walk in the back door and steaks go out the front door! I’ll plan my first trip there next week. [emoji39]

How thick are you cutting these bad boys? Looks like 1.5-2.0"? I'm very lucky in that our local grocery store has an incredible meat department. Know all the butchers and can get things cut to my preference.

Those look absolutely amazing.  I gotta get me a vac sealer and do this!

I cut them using the super scientific method of knife flip steak cutter.
I lay the back of the knife on the fresh cut edge and roll it up on the sharp to mark my next cut. [emoji23] so Ja .. about 1.5 - 1.75” cuts.
There is a good reason I don’t trim my steaks with a meat cleaver.🤣

That slab of rib eye was 45 euros?  I can’t tell how many pounds it is but that looks like a good deal. Depending on size a similar chunk of rib eye here is around $100

Works out to 6.698 pounds
Euro is about the same as the US dollar right now.
$51.32 for 6.698 lbs = $7.66 per pound if I did that right.

That’s still decent. I can’t remember what Costco and sams is but I want to say at least $8-$9 per pound.
