Thanks everyone for all the recs. Wanted to do a bang-bang but alas succumbed to Friday afternoon traffic. Ended up just going to Standing’s and got a NY strip.
Was a little sceptical initially, grass fed, very lean virtually no marbling and fairly expensive too at $35.99/lb.
Simply seasoned with sea salt from Guerande and crushed black pepper, accompanied by $0.5 worth of 1/2 a bulb of sweet onion. Seared over cast iron pan and sauteed onions (finished off w aged balsamic modena vinegar) alongside the steak. Rested for 7mins and Voila, dinner!
Very nice piece of meat, nice dry aged funk and pronounced minerally flavors. Fat cooked up into a deep yellow tint characteristic of proper grass fed cows; butter like creamy with grassy undertones. Delish!!!
$24.83 + $0.50 + '01 Monbousquet
