Salted this nice NY strip this morning. Took it out 8 hrs later and popped it in the oven till it hit 100F internal. Let rest in foil for 10 mins while the cast iron heated up. Seared in peanut oil on all sides before lowering heat and basting with butter, garlic, and rosemary/thyme from the garden.

    Beautifully done. Dry brine is the way

    I do t like the dry brine bc the exterior gets rubbery

    That looks absolutely exceptional and I’ve cooked and eaten hundreds of steaks. Might even be the best looking one ever seen

    The sear looks good but it’s definitely unevenly cooked. I’d still eat all of it

    I always dry brine overnight. Good job.

    How much salt to dry brine and how do you keep in the fridge? Is it just on a plate in the fridge? Covered? In a bag? Please educate me on the art of the dry brine, I just went to the butcher and purchased a Prime rib eye and would like to try this method out. I cast iron in case you’re curious.

    I really like a good dry brine. But I’ve recently discovered, that I love the contrast of a salty crust, and a pure beef inside. Sometimes a brined steak can be a bit salty for me. But it works wonders in other ways for sure beyond taste.
