Content: While dry-aged steaks are in vogue these days, Delmonico steaks are traditionally wet-aged. This means they are usually vacuum-sealed in plastic and aged for 4-10 days as opposed to dry-aging, where butchers hang cuts just above freezing for weeks or even months to get rid of water content and concentrate the flavor. Both forms of preparation are delicious in their own right, but if you want the traditional Delmonico experience, it needs to be wet-aged. That’s because wet-aged steaks are juicier, which is what we associate with Delmonicos. Most steaks you buy are wet-aged anyway, so unless they specifically say dry-aged you will be getting a wet-aged steak. How to Cook Delmonico Steak
In order to cook a Delmonico steak, you’ll want to fast broil it & brush it with butter and beef fat. The key is to get your broiler as hot as possible, buy the best steak you can, and nail the timing. Here’s how we like to cook our Delmonico steaks: Set your steaks out and let them come to room temperature. Sponge any moisture as needed.
