August 8, 2013 Page 5 T oday my wife and I were shopping at Costco and I saw a great price and great looking quality of whole New York strip loins. We are having some friends over for the weekend and I thought this would be a great opportunity to show you all how to trim up the larger primal cuts of beef. and how to bang them Once you learn this you will find out that you’ll get a better product by Chef Shafer for less money per pound and get the trimmings to use for tacos or stew. The Chef FIRST you’ll need a sharp knife and a large cutting board on a flat and stable surface. NEXT remove the meat from the plastic and pat it dry with a clean cloth. 1 Begin by removing the nerve from the back of the loin. 1 2 3 4 2 Next trim the white fat off the rest of then loin. Do not remove all the fat. You want to keep about a 1/4-1/2" of fat on the steak for flavor. 3 Then flip the loin over and trim the bottom of the loin. You want to almost shave the loin as to not remove too much of the meat and only remove the fat and grizzle. 4 Flip the loin over again and begin cutting steaks to your desired thickness, or you can roast the loin whole and then carve it at the table.
