I don't think I have ever seen that cut with the bone in. That said bone in steaks are almost always better.

They sold the filet to someone, and now they're trying to sell you the bone with your strip? Like a porterstudio, or portertrailer.

Don't bother with the bone. The bone will have zero impact on the flavor and depending on how you cook it, make it harder to cook properly.

Though I do enjoy gnawing on the t-bone after.

Longer cooks bone adds flavor but short time steak cooks, very little effect. In this case, boneless.

That. It's rarely sold bone-in, but a NY strip is just one side of a t-bone. Usually they leave the bone on for the full t-bone and remove the bone to parcel the meat out as individual strips and filets. Buy it bone in, most meat is better when cooked on the bone and the bone is small enough that the price per pound of edible meat is going to be less that way too.

I am no longer a full mod because I am a moderator emeritus. That latin word at the end means POWER.

The "bone-in" New York Steak is just a T-Bone dude. If they're both the same thickness and grade of beef, might as well go for the cheaper one.

I like bone-in whatever i'm getting.

Yes, I bet you do. :sneaky:

Weren't you the Programming mod? Isn't that like being Sheriff of Mayberry. :D
Can't imagine too many shenanigans go on in there.
