Process

- The process of hanging beef, also known as aging, is a method used to enhance the flavor and tenderness of the meat. ... The butchers we utilize will typically let beef age for around 2-3 weeks. During the dry-aging process, enzymes in the meat break down proteins, which can result in a more tender and flavorful end product. Source: aging record.
