Nestled in the picturesque landscapes of Granby, Colorado, C Lazy U Ranch is a haven for those seeking an unforgettable vacation. The ranch offers a perfect blend of luxury and rustic charm, with various activities to engage guests of all ages. Ted Strauch recently invited us to a pre-summer season steak tasting at the ranch. Combining the finest Colorado All Natural Aspen Ridge bone-in Ribeye beef, infused with Locke + CO Aspen Aged Rye Whiskey, and dry-aged for 28 days at Buckhead Meats, this unique offering is set to tantalize taste buds all summer long.
A Gourmet Feast:
The centerpiece of the steak tasting event was the Colorado All Natural Aspen Ridge bone-in Ribeye beef. Sourced from family-owned U.S. ranches, this premium Angus beef boasts exceptional tenderness and flavor. What sets it apart are its all-natural qualities, with no added hormones, verified Angus genetics, and raised without antibiotics. The commitment to providing high-quality, natural beef shines through in every bite.
Infusion with Whiskey Magic:
Adding an exciting twist to the remarkable beef, Ted Strauch from Buckhead Meats infused the ribeye with Locke + CO Aspen Aged Rye Whiskey. The marriage of flavors between the whiskey and the beef created a harmonious blend, elevating the taste to new heights. The infusion allowed the whiskey to permeate the meat, creating a unique and delectable culinary delight.
The Art of Dry Aging:
The Buckhead Meats chefs subjected it to a meticulous 28-day dry aging process to further enhance the beef’s flavor and tenderness. This technique involves storing the beef in a controlled environment, allowing natural enzymes to break down the muscle fibers, resulting in enhanced tenderness and intensified flavor. The result is a succulent steak that is juicy and flavorful.
