Costco NY Strip loin
Great looking steaks
Cooked a couple tonight on the Weber grill.
Excellent flavor but surprisingly tough. Like, really tough.
Not much for marbling. Gotta figure out a different method. Crockpot, maybe.

Maybe try reverse sear. A little tender lovin in the oven followed by brief caramelizing heat.
ETA: I read somewhere costco "blade tenderizes" their steaks, since you cut those up yourself maybe it wasn't. If not you could also try aging it at home.
I've never understood vests. If it's cold enough for a vest, wouldn't your arms be cold too? Wouldn't a jacket or coat make more sense, or is it a layering thing just to keep your core warmer? To be fair, we don't generally get brutal cold down here.
Poosball.
Core temp stays up, so extremities can be less encumbered while still warm. Same principle as wearing heavy insulated tall bib overalls without a jacket while working outside in very cold weather. Head covering usually helps, especially as middle age overtakes.
And becoming folically challenged. My shaved head is to hide the bald spots my Maternal Grandfather blessed me with
. You don’t know how much heat a head of hair keeps in until it’s gone!You can see my weird bald pattern in this selfie taken by my sidekick (side chick/wife?)
This is the second loin I’ve bought. The first was utterly amazing, darn near prime in quality. I expected more from this one.
You could try to sous vide them as well if you find they’re tough. Unfortunately, until you cut into them, don’t know what the marbling is going to be like. I still cook it the same way on the grill, but the meat is broken down more.
I tried to convince Rebecca to get a vest for our Yellowstone area trip.
She was against it because she felt they were unneeded.
Jokingly, I handed one of the Patagonia puffy ones to her and she said they were just weird.
Next up was a Smart Wool one. It was very thin and almost unnoticeable once it was put on.
Well, that was it. She wore that thing a whole lot. In fact, she wore hers more than I wore mine.
I think she likes them now.
Neither one of us own a puffy coat or vest though.
