    Great video, I learned a lot, thank you. I've been buying ribeye slabs like that for a while, trimming out the medallions and using the excess meat to make hamburgers with. They are delicious. I've never heard of a cap-steak though. I'll give it a try, I have one to process in my refrigerator! Thanks again!

    The cap steak rolls at the 7 min mark are great! I also like that they don't embed an overly loud heavy metal track into the video...which seems common these days.

    Really found this video useful. I did this yesterday and had fun doing it. This was the most useful and explains why we are now seeing rib-eye caps when in the past I don’t remember see it. It also explain why different places have different looking ribeyes. I split it like you did with three major different pieces. Of course saving the best cut for myself and wife ;-)

  • @Dakiniwoman
    @Dakiniwoman10 ай бұрын

    I find this very interesting... Whenever I have purchased the ribeye steaks, I just like the eye part and don't really care for the cap part, so I will try to find where to get the whole piece of meat as you have and see if I can do some cutting up myself. I did get a whole strip loin for my first try and it worked out okay for me except that I needed a much lower surface to cut on... my counter top is level with my armpits so that made it very hard to cut the meat. ( I am only 55 inches tall)... The store where I have been purchasing ribeye steaks, they cut the best part out and then tie up the steak... I really hate that... I want lots and lots of fat... cutting the big pocket of fat, out is really stealing the best part. I don't really understand that part.

    This was great fun and mine came out well. I am looking forward to trying my first cap steak. I have eaten many “caps”, but never in this unique way. I have broken down a few ribeyes in the past , but never like this. I really learned a lot from the experience. My only problem with whole ribeyes is the amount of waste. I guess if you wanted to be a real “nose to tail” person, you could make a lot of beef tallow, but I am going to take a pass on that. I also am looking forward to some great juicy ribeye hamburgers from the trimmings!

    Beautiful steaks. You can actually use that fat while grilling, griddling those steaks. Cut into small pads, like pads of butter, and freeze a couple pads in 2 pack steaks. Then use while cooking. They will melt into steaks. Yummy! 35 years of retail meat experience here so that was slow for me, but good video and very nice end product.

    Brian Patch --- Got an idea from Wagyu restaurants to trim off the best fat, melt it down in a pan, and baste open-flame beef with it. Spares a lot of flame-up problems. Also, for some strange reason, grilled steak (rare) somehow tastes better after refrigerating for a day, then pan braising it in slices to warm it up. With mushrooms.

    I was going to buy a prime rib roast (not the whole thing, maybe half) for Christmas. I may do this instead of roasting the whole thing, because we like steaks and this looks like we could get more for our money. My question is, if I was to buy a half roast and break it down like this, which end would you say would be best to get? The loin or chuck end?

  • @recteq

  • @davesmith5656

    Love that video, thanks. Now I know what to serve guests. Question: when you tied up that cap steak, would it work to wrap a slice of bacon around the outside? I've heard that in Brazil they roll some green pepper and onion (and probably some garlic and other stuff) inside a picanha cut, fat side out, then rotisserie it over an open flame to let the fat drip over the meat. The fat cooks first. I don't think bacon would get cooked enough wrapped inside of a spinalis or rib-eye cap steak roll (haha, to sushi chefs), unless you like it well-done, but some other stuff might work (and if it's a bit crunchy, tell them it's "green"). I also heard an average guy can get f-a-t just visiting Brazil. Actually, a length-wise slice of bacon at the outside of the roll might cook enough.

    @@kidchunguswrx2524 --- Good point to halfway cook the bacon first. I once had filet mignon medallions wrapped in bacon (restaurant). It was good! Blends flavor surprisingly well (you don't have to eat the bacon to taste the flavor). Not to break faith with hickory grillers, but my current thing is chuck pot-roast, in a crock-pot. Easy, refrigerates well, and a lot of potential there for good taste, braising the beef well beforehand (in butter), beef stock; when to add which vegetables, which herbs and spices to use. I'm thinking about smoking the chuck before braising .... Would tossing in corn on the cob work?
