Fat content is essential when dry aging meats. If you pick too lean of a protein it will dry out in the process. Our friends at Compart Family Farms have carefully bred their Duroc stock to achieve beautiful marbling that is perfectly suited for the dry aging process. This aging intensifies the flavor and richness of the meat. It’s definitely worth the extra time and expense to source out these delectable cuts.
