definately untrimmed filet. you can see the round center that would be the typical filet minion steak or left as a larger(longer peice) chateaubriand.

good eats for sure.

i personally trim it to a more typical cut and use the leftovers for a stew or some such thing. but, it'll be good either way.

as far as i understand, very little meat has never been frozen, so typically, when we buy unfrozen and then freeze it IS the second time. should be AOK.

Ok,
Just finished dinner!!
I eat t bone and rib eyes all the time and did not expect what I just experienced.

I left them untrimmed and the flavor of the fat was just as good as the meat.

It was in many parts of the steak pull apart!! I'm very happy with the results and will freeze the rest of the meat for another day!! The meat is so good I think it will be saved for special ones!!








The flavor is incredible!!

Thanks for looking!!

Doesn't really matter, it can be refrozen if carefully packed.

+1. If you trimmed that fat from the main pieces, it would look more like filet mignon. The ones I get at my local store resemble a meat carrot.

Quick question for those of you who have had these in the past.
would you consider this Prime or Choice ?

And for the record. Im having a real hard time removing any of the fat because the flavor of it is so FARKIN GOOD!!
