I headed out to Safeway for the regular weekly coupon sale. This week, they had bone-in NY Strips on sale. I picked a couple of packs up in one section of their meat area. I then checked the place where they often keep more sale meat. When I looked back, they reloaded the first place I’d checked. I swapped for bigger packs!

That’s the first package. The steaks look good with nice marbling.

The second package looks just as good. I’d forgotten to make an image before I put Redmond’s Cherry Smoked Salt on them. The first batch got a different blend of their smoked salt.
Both packs will now dry-brine in my fridge for a few days. I’m fasting on Saturday, so it’ll be at least Sunday before any are eaten.
In the meantime, I’m having the cowboy ribeye I picked up the other day for dinner tonight.

Before cooking but after dry-brining.

After grilling indoors on my Ninja DG551, the steak looks a little charred. but it’s perfectly medium rare inside and quite delicious
