Prime Ribeye 14oz Bone-In
🥩Prime Frenched Bone-In Ribeye (14 oz)
🔹 Cut Overview
A Frenched bone-in ribeye comes from the rib section of the steer (specifically ribs 6–12). The bone is “Frenched” — meaning the rib bone has been meticulously trimmed of meat and fat for a clean, elegant presentation.
A 14-ounce portion is typically about 1¾–2 inches thick, offering a perfect balance of meat-to-bone ratio and ideal for a single luxurious serving.
🔹 Prime Grade
The “Prime” designation means the steak is from the top 2–3 % of all U.S. beef, graded for its:
-
Abundant marbling (tiny flecks of intramuscular fat)
-
Tender texture
-
Deep, buttery flavor
When cooked, the marbling melts into the meat, creating a juicy, velvety mouthfeel and that signature rich steakhouse flavor.
🔹 Flavor Profile
-
Primary Notes: Rich, beef-forward, slightly sweet and nutty from the intramuscular fat.
-
Secondary Notes: Subtle caramelization and smokiness from searing.
-
Finish: Long, buttery, and savory — with a lingering umami depth.
Because the bone remains attached during cooking, it enhances flavor through bone marrow infusion, often referred to as the “flavor anchor.”
🔹 Texture
-
Center: Tender and juicy, with a luxurious, melt-in-the-mouth feel.
-
Edge: Crispy crust from searing, giving contrast to the soft interior.
-
Near the bone: Slightly firmer, more flavorful — prized by chefs as the best bite.
🔹 Visual Appearance
-
Raw: Deep cherry-red meat with fine, creamy white marbling; long, clean bone for a striking presentation.
-
Cooked: Mahogany seared crust with a warm pink center and glistening fat that melts on the surface.
🔹 Ideal Cooking Style
-
Method: Reverse sear or wood-fire grill
-
Temperature: Medium-rare (about 125–130 °F internal) to preserve tenderness and juiciness
-
Finish: Rested and topped with a knob of herb or truffle butter
🔹 Pairing Suggestions
-
Wine: Full-bodied red such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, or Malbec
-
Side Dishes: Truffle mashed potatoes, roasted broccolini, or duck-fat fries
-
Sauces: Red wine demi-glace, peppercorn jus, or bordelaise
