I do it all the time.Sans bags.Just cooked an 80 day wet aged Spinalis Dorsi last nite, it Rocked.I am sure the bags are a great product but they are not necessary by any means.Neither is trimming. :wink:
I have a plastic container I've drilled a couple of dozen soles in the sides and lid and I place my meat on a metal rack in the container and put the meat in the spare fridge for 30 days. I just don't see the need for the bags

CHRIS, Sorry for the delay in replying to your request. I got called out of town on business.
My dry age container is really pretty simple. At RD I bought a cam brio container that has a raised tray/shelf with holes/slots that sits in the bottom and a lid. I drilled a bunch of holes in the sides and lid, which gives some protection but lets plenty of air circulate on all sides. After all, they just hang beef off of hooks to dry age.
