Steaks. A product that has become more of a luxury over time. Going to your local grocery store and buying a nice steak is no easy task. Most of the meats you find are only Select and Choice grade beef, which at best are not the most flavorful grades of beef.
Holy Grail Steak Co. has some of the top qualify beef you can buy from Upper Prime to Kobe A5 Wagyu beef. We were privileged to be able to sample their Santa Carota Carrot Finished Strip Steak and their Santa Carota Carrot Finished Ribeye Steak. The Santa Carota carrot finished beef line is grass-fed beef that benefits from the addition of fresh carrots. A rich source of moisture and sweetness, carrots infuse beef muscle tissue with sweet juices and act as a dry-aging enzyme that leaves the meat tender and juicy.
We took the steaks out of the fridge early that morning, and seasoned them both with a liberal amount of kosher salt, only. After about 4 hours at room temperature, we then put them on the BBQ, watching them sear and cook, with that nice smoke coming from the drippings of fat onto the flavor plates of the BBQ. With both sides of the steaks nicely checkered lines of char, we let them rest for another 5 minutes before plating them.
We then proceeded in cutting into the Strip Steak first. The steak was a perfect medium rare. Juices flowing, and you can smell that rich beef goodness. Then tasted the beef. Perfectly seasoned, a mouth full of richness, tender, juicy meat.
We proceeded in cutting the Santa Carota Ribeye, you can tell this meat was more tender than the Strip, and see the beef and fat juices in the meat. This piece of ribeye was succulent, and twice as tender as the Strip. The meat flavor was smooth with a perfect balance of beef and fat flavors.
So, to compare the two awesome pieces of beef, by far superior quality than you can get at any local supermarket, the strip had a more robust beef flavor while the ribeye had a balance of beef and fat umami.
