Anyone ever dry age steaks?



Part of me thinks it's kinda gross and potentially dangerous, but thinking

about taking the plunge in the garage fridge.

If you've got an extra fridge, a rack, a fan you can stick in there, and you spring for a good primal/subprimal cut... you should be good. (Monitoring humidity is not as important as you might think; most fridges hold at 80 or below without much effort... and the variance between, say, 30 and 80 doesn't affect flavor much, supposedly.)



OE: The Pryles guy seems to be on point with most of his stuff. This is also a pretty good, less-fussy guide (in general, if I'm not relying on info I've gleaned from the job, I frequent the church of Kenji Lopez-Alt): https://www.seriouseats.com/2013/03/the-food-lab-complete-guide-to-dry-aging-beef-at-home.html
