Let’s take a look at our Filet Mignon Prime steak. This is a USDA Prime Filet Mignon, which means it comes from the top 2% of beef in the US. Now we also offer an Upper One Third USDA Choice line of steaks which are steaks that just missed the USDA Prime grade, but don’t have the ticket price associated with USDA Prime. Today we are going to be cooking a USDA Prime, Wet Aged Steak. Now, you might be asking “What is a Wet Aged Steak?” That is a great question, and I encourage you to watch our Distinction Video where I talk about that in more detail, but in short, aging is a process that makes a steak more flavorful, juicy, and delicious. There are two methods of aging: Wet Aging & Dry Aging and we offer both. Today we are going to be cooking a USDA Prime Filet Mignon steak that has been wet aged for 6 weeks.

You have now received our USDA Prime Filet Mignon from Chicago Steak university. And as you will open up your packaging you will see that the product is frozen as described on our website http://www.mychicagosteak.com/. We need to be sure to place it in a refrigerator for a minimum of 24 hours to make sure that our product has had the opportunity to thaw all the way through. Now that we had the opportunity to thaw them out properly we want to make sure we take them out and give them a chance to bloom for 30 minutes. This will allow the steaks to come to room temperature making it easier for the cooking process so that you have the same temperature all the way through. Let’s take the product out and let’s get it ready!
