    Dry brining only requires some salt and a little bit of effort. Other than that it doesn't cost you anything. It's not like dry aging where you lose like 20-30% of the weight. So it's not so much whether or not it's worth it, it's more about personal preference and whether or not you like the end result. When you dry brine a steak, the texture becomes much more firm but kind of smoother. I personally prefer dry brining my steak, but I can see why some people might not like it.
