Re: the ribeye cut - the H-E-B super in these parts sells prime, wagyu and dry aged ribeye. It’s the benchmark cut in Texas. Not cheap,but quite good for the price. Whenever I go in, I always scope the meat case and if the cuts look especially right, I snag them. Never disappointing.The above pictures of that rib steak is how I roll too. Why try to fix something that isn't broken, all your steps are perfect and I know how the end result will be. Good looking cut too btw. I also thought for sure with that hook sitting at 90, kind of swaying a bit Malcom would come back and all of a sudden he would be going caveman style instead of hanging style.
I was thinking the same thing. Watching it swing I thought it was going down for sure.I would have bent that hook a whole lot more. Every sphincter muscle in my body tightened watching that hook.
