Fat - higher the better

Fat - the higher the better, especially note for brain (personal experience of Esmee La Fleur)

Storing meat - Beef seems to be safe for 10 days in refrigerator at very low temperature, freezer is not necessary. There doesn't seem to be be histamine problem.

This is the first time I have tried the Prime NY Strip Loin and I am DEEPLY impressed with just how much fat it contains. The pic above shows the lean side without the fat cap. It also does not show the marbling within the meat itself. It felt almost twice as fatty as the Choice variety. The Choice costs $5.70/lb and the Prime costs $10.89/lb, so twice the price. But I must say that it is worth every penny. I am so glad I was forced to try the Prime tonight since Costco was out of the Choice. I feel the positive difference in both my body and my brain. Fat Rules! Plus it makes my life super easy. I only need to buy one slab of meat to satisfy all my requirements for a sufficient quantity of raw beef fat. I am completely sold! I will gladly pay the extra money for this.

Becca Biram I just went and got a primal boneless ribeye. How do you keep it packaged for the week Esmée La Fleur

Esmée La Fleur I think the New York Strip is better and so does Jennifer Garstecki-prusa, so that is what a buy. They are a bit smaller than ribeyes too. But, I cut open one end, and barely peel back the plastic just enough for the amount I plan to use, then quickly recover with the plastic I peeled back and put another plastics bag over that end to keep it closed. I keep the refrigerator on the highest setting and keep the meat in the back of the fridge. It will partially freeze on the outside. Then I put it in the freezer for 30-60 minutes once a day just before slicing a new piece and eating. My last one still tasted fresh after 10 days.

Becca Biram Thanks so much :) curious about the sticking in the freezer part. Does that help with the histamines?

Esmée La Fleur It slows histamines production by keeping it super cold, and the meat stays fresher longer without having to freeze it all the way through.

Steve Littler Esmée La Fleur So you super cool it, grind it, and then eat right away before it warms up?

Esmée La Fleur If I could make a video for you I would, but just not in a situation where that is possible right now.
