What Makes USDA Prime Wet-Aged Beef Special?

USDA Prime beef represents the very top 2% or 3% of the meat produced each year by the cattle industry. Once that high-grade meat is placed in a wet aging vat, enzymes within the meat go to work softening the fibers and deepening the flavor. Wet aged meat has a stronger beef flavor with extra umami. Many people consider meat aged this way more flavorful, not to mention much more tender. It’s a slightly quicker process than dry aging while still producing amazing and unique results.

We used to be exclusively Omaha people, then received some from Chicago Steaks as a gift. We are now exclusively Chicago Steak people. Omaha is great, but not as good as these.

This particular order was a gift for some neighbors and they absolutely loved them.

Awesome Steaks. Great Customer Service.

The order arrived on time and packaged so still frozen. We've eaten one set of ribeyes and they were really great. Tender. Juicy. Flavorful. Looking forward to broiling the next ones. YUM!

FAQs about USDA Prime Wet-Aged Beef

How are the wet and dry aging processes different?

Dry aging involves hanging the beef in a cold environment with specific humidity in the air. Wet aging requires us to encase the meat in a vacuum-sealed system that surrounds the meat in its own natural juices. Both allow the enzymes within the meat to improve its texture and flavor, but wet aging has more of an effect on the texture than dry aging does.

Does wet aging improve the flavor of beef?

Wet aging is a technique primarily used for improving the texture. Yet it also deepens the flavor, giving the meat a mineral taste that is appealing to most. It’s commonly described as tasting more like beef than non-aged meat.

How can you cook Prime wet aged beef?

This Prime grade beef is cooked the same way as any other steak or roasts you enjoy. They turn out great on the grill, in the smoker, or even in an appliance like the air fryer.
