    I was taken to a very expensive steak restaurant once, and while others got more expensive cuts I got a 10 oz California sirloin aged 8 years in house.

    I love steak, I loved steak, I will always love steak, but every steak from that day has to measure up to that one and never will.

    I’m so glad I had the experience, but I don’t have $280 to blow on steak each time I want it lol.

      8 years? Are you sure?

      That’s more than quadruple the longest time I’ve ever seen a piece of beef dry aged.

        I’ve seen 90 days offered in restaurants as an extreme version of dry aged and described as mushroomy.
