Dry Aged Boneless Ribeye questions

[ifitsdeadsmokeit]

Thinking about dry aging a boneless ribeye in an umai bag...planning on going 45 - 60 days and had a few questions...

Can you freeze the steaks after aging....

How important is maintaining the humidity and if need to, what %? Is it really important when using the bags?

What size bags are typically used for a whole boneless ribeye?

I'm planning on using a deep freeze with a temperature controller on it to keep it at 36 degrees...I already have this setup for laagering beer and think it would be ideal provided I don't have beer laagering...

Any other suggestions?

Sure, I've only done the ribeye once with Umai, but froze some of the steaks and they were as good as the unfrozen ones.

You don't need to worry about it as long as you're using a typical household fridge. Don't use a dorm fridge or other non ventilating fridge.

I used the striploin size: https://umaidry.com/collections/ste...aged-steak-artisan-meat-pack-ribeye-striploin
