Beautiful meat! Perfectly trimmed and marbled. I got the 30 day dry-aged since my friends don't like it aged longer. It is wonderful! It tasted better than the steakhouses that use it since I know how I like my steak cooked. It arrived in 1 day. I think the perfect size is the 1.5 inch cut.
Next time we will get the 70 day dry aged bone in ribeye and 70 day dry aged porterhouse.
The only suggestion I have is that they allow you to mix and match the steaks. For each cut of steak the minimum order is 2. So if I want ribeye and porterhouse I must order a minimum of 4 steaks.
Pat La Frieda – you're awesome! *Bows down to the King of Meats*
I've always personally been a big fan of family businesses, and I can now add another one to my list. The fact that the Pat La Frieda name has been around for 3 generations shows how good their stuff is!
If you're not familiar, Pat La Frieda only sells to Wholesale. Minetta Tavern and Shake Shack among other places use their meats. Recently, they started selling their meats to Fresh Direct Delivery.
With that said, thank you (Pat La Frieda) for selling your meats to Fresh Direct, so that little peons like my bf and I can order the amazingly fresh hamburger meats.
I purchased 6 boxes of Pat La Frieda Beef Hamburger Short Rib from Fresh Direct Delivery. Each box has 4 patties and is nicely sealed to maintain freshness until opened.
I was armed with 24 burger patties for a picnic at Prospect Park in Brooklyn… yes, I made the trip to Brooklyn. For those of you that know me, I usually stay in my Queens unless otherwise asked. The Brooklyn Queens Expressway is just a nightmare to drive on going from Queens to Brooklyn.
Bf, my amazing chef, cooked the patties with wood charcoal (only the best baby.. no gasoline flavor!) and cooked the hamburger meats medium rare. Now normally, I would never ask to cook hamburger meats medium rare. I only have my steaks medium rare. Hamburger meat usually scares me. You never know what kind of mystery meat is in the patties! Bf and I smelled the hamburger meat when we opened the boxes.. and mmm mmm heaven. Bf and I both felt safe enough to cook the hamburger meat medium rare.
The hamburger meat is so good & fresh that I only put a pinch of sea salt on it. I put maybe a dime size squeeze of ketchup and mustard, but other than that, it was mostly meat and the hamburger bun. No other seasonings. YUM! Although I wished I had grilled onions to complete my burger, but no one in the group brought onions. Boo.
Thanks again for selling the meats to Fresh Direct. Without it, I wouldn't be able to enjoy those lovely Beef Short Rib burger meats cooked on wood charcoal.
