I get about 30% waste on trimming up a whole tenderloin, so it's almost never to my benefit to re-cut my own if I'm buying locally and there's not a killer sale. TBF, I trim exceptionally lean, and some of that waste becomes steak sandwiches. For less than $11/lb (with filler and instacart filler to get to 30%) Choice tenderloin is a no-brainer.
USDA Prime accounts for the top quality 3% of all beef sold in the US.
USDA Choice accounts for the top 20% of all beef sold in the US.
USDA inspections choose the grade based on marbling and styrations within the muscle of the beef loin
USDA Choice is what most steakhouses serve unless they specifically advertise USDA Prime.
It is fine for your backyard cookout and for serving guests.
Certified Angus simply means it's from an Angus herd that is registered with the USDA.
Dry aged is a process in which the meat is hung in a controlled environment while breaking down and releasing moisture.
USDA Prime certified Angus Dry Aged Ribeye will cost you $70 per pound and it's a very high quality and delicious steak is you know how to cook it.
USDA Choice ribeye is $20 per pound and is a delicious steak is you know how to cook it.
The difference is that the premium beef is better

Why freeze if it will be good through the date you plan to consume it?
Must be a real crappy restaurant.
Restaurants can source better consistent quality at same/similar pricing...delivered
Factor in the amount of time for each person and it costs more.
Why on earth would you ruin the meat by freezing and thawing.
Absolutely absurd! Might as well just get hamburger if not going to treat it properly.
Keeping it in vacuum sealed package is essentially WET AGING.
The longer it sits the more tender and flavorful it gets(up to use by date).
These idiots leave an extra layer of (essentially) silver skin and grizzle.
On a 1.5 pound approx 4-6 ounces.
Making it $13-$14 per pound.
Add in the EXTREME Gaminess and it's a no sale!
Best buy date of 12/31
We normally buy 2-3x month rack of lamb(12.99-15.99) and this is just disappointing.

I like to cut the roast into steaks, dry brine in fridge without cover for 2 days allowing the salts to mix into the meat and the excess fluid dries off. Vacuum seal and throw in the bath at 137F and depending on thickness for about 2 hours per inch for Rib Eye. Cheap chuck I leave it on for 36 hrs to tenderize the muscle.
Then reverse sear, where you throw it on a cast iron pan for a couple min to sear and brown the sides with a little butter.
