THE DRY-AGED REVOLUTION
Until the 1960s, nearly all beef in America was dry-aged. Then the invention of vacuum packaging launched an era of wet-aged beef, embraced by meatpackers because meat aged faster and retained more water weight (hence, more profit). The dry-aged revolution has redefined everything. Only the top steak houses attempt this process, in fact, there are only a few restaurants in the state of Michigan that advertise dry-aging, most are located in a major city and order in their Dry-Aged beef. Timbers is one of the first in Northern Michigan to Dry-age in-house. Come taste the difference!
Simply put, dry aged steaks are more tender, flavorful and some of the best tasting steaks available. Timbers invested thousands to prefect our process, we now offer USDA PRIME DRY AGED Beef. Learn more about this process:
Why Dry age a steak?
Dry aging a steak makes it more tender and flavorful. First, naturally-present enzymes in the meat break down some of the collagen, which holds muscle fibers together and causes steaks to toughen while cooking. … With collagen out of the way, the end result is much more tender.
