Classic Ribeye - Chicago Cut
Cut is boneless prime certified angus beef ribeye. Portion size is 16 oz. Prepared and presented the same as above.
Prime Bone-in Dry Aged Ribeye
The ribeyes are prime certified 22 oz of black angus. Black angus is a breed of cow and the ribeye cut from it has a smaller center “heart.” It is highly prized for its higher degree of marbling. They are dry-aged for 42 days. The aging process allows the meat to break-down and become more tender as well as develop new and deeper flavors. We source our dry age from a local company called Meats by Linz that has the facilities to produce a consistent product. The ribeyes are left on the bone. Prepared and presented the same as above.
Dry Aged NY Strip

Bone Marrow
Can be added to any steak. It is served on top of the steak with a small spoon in the marrow.
