Wet Aging
Huntspoint BBQ and Meat’ery wet ages our meats for extra tenderness and flavor which makes our ribeye steaks stand-out from steaks you buy elsewhere.
One method for improving the flavor and tenderness of beef, especially ribeye steaks, is wet aging. It entails putting the meat in a vacuum-sealed bag and keeping it somewhere cool for a while, usually in a refrigerator. Several things happen to the meat during wet aging:
- Enzyme action: The meat’s natural enzymes break down the connective tissues, increasing the meat’s tenderness. Flavor development is further aided by this procedure.
- Moisture retention: By keeping the meat moist, the vacuum-sealed environment helps to concentrate the tastes.
- Development of flavor: As meat ages, its flavors intensify and become more nuanced, giving it a deeper, more flavorful flavor.
Wet aging is a terrific approach to improve the quality of your ribeye steaks, and it can be done at home or by qualified meat providers. It’s crucial to remember that dry age, another aging technique that includes leaving the meat out in the open for a longer amount of time, has different effects than wet aging.

Recipes
There are several cooking methods we recommend to prepare a delicious ribeye steak. Here are some of the most common methods:
Pan-Searing:
- a. Allow the ribeye steak to come to room temperature before cooking.
b. Season the steak generously with salt and pepper.
c. Heat a heavy skillet (cast iron is great for this) over high heat until it’s very hot.
d. Add a small amount of oil or butter to the pan.
e. Carefully place the seasoned ribeye steak in the hot pan.
f. Sear the steak for a few minutes on each side to develop a nice crust. Adjust cooking time based on your desired doneness.
g. Add some garlic and fresh herbs to the pan and baste the steak with the melted butter or oil for added flavor.
h. Rest the steak for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Grilling:
- Preheat your grill to high heat (around 450-500°F or 230-260°C).
- Season the ribeye steak with salt and pepper, and you can also brush it with oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the steak on the grill and sear it for a few minutes on each side for grill marks and a nice crust.
- Move the steak to a cooler part of the grill or reduce the heat to medium and continue grilling until your desired level of done-ness is reached.
- Rest the steak for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Oven-Broiling:
- Preheat your oven’s broiler on high and position the oven rack so the steak will be about 3-4 inches (7-10 cm) away from the broiler element.
- Season the ribeye steak with salt and pepper.
- Place the steak on a broiler pan or a rack over a baking sheet.
- Broil the steak for a few minutes on each side until it reaches your desired doneness.
- Rest the steak for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Sous Vide:
- Preheat a water bath to the desired final cooking temperature for the steak (typically around 130-135°F or 54-57°C for medium-rare).
- Season the ribeye steak with salt, pepper, and any desired herbs or aromatics.
- Vacuum-seal the steak in a bag and cook it in the sous vide water bath for several hours (usually 1-4 hours).
- Once cooked, remove the steak from the bag, pat it dry, and quickly sear it in a hot skillet or on the grill for a few seconds on each side for a nice crust.
e. Rest the steak for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
The cooking time and method can vary based on your desired level of doneness, so it’s essential to use a meat thermometer to ensure your steak reaches the desired internal temperature. Whether you prefer pan-searing, grilling, broiling, or sous vide, ribeye steaks can be a delicious and indulgent meal when cooked properly.
