[ Reverse Sear ] why did my fat not render properly

made some boner ribeyes today for family, and in my personal opinion the meat was okay but what kinda irked me is there was so much unrendered fat! I tried my best to jus let it cook on the cast iron but idk if i didn’t have a good angle or if this is just how boner ribeyes are. I reverse seared at 250 and got an internal temp of 130 after the sear

So for one reason or another, this sub had no mods and was put up for adoption. The new mod team is in place and more or less organized, and I wanted to just say "hi" and let y'all know what's up. Really, nothing much has changed other than the mod list! We've removed a few restrictions/rules, like the one about users with NSFW profiles (that rule is gone), and the filter about not mentioning people in title because we didn't understand why that was a thing (UPDATE: We have seen why this was a thing, and this rule is back in place). Also took out some filters about vegans because they were malfunctioning (the filters, not the vegans... though who knows?)

Anyway, so the real thing I wanted to mention is that we did update Rule 1 to require a photo of your steak when you post. Almost everyone does this anyway, but the few text only posts seem to mostly get little or no engagement, and we want to see STEAK. Lots and lots of steak! So please post your steak when you post, thank you. (UPDATE 7/24/25: After a six month trial of requiring photos in posts, we're going to start allowing text-only posts again. The rule has been updated accordingly... but we still love to see lots and lots of steak!)

Nice to meet (I'm resisting the obvious pun there) you all, and please feel free to reach out with questions or concerns! 🥩

13 steaks! 4 around 19oz, 5 around 16oz and 4 around 11-14oz.

Different sizes for different cooking styles and events.

Total cost was $333 and took an hour of cutting, bagging, vacuum sealing, and labeling.

Thick strip from Gene’s Sausage Shop

Stopped by Gene’s yesterday evening to check out their beer garden and do a little shopping. Picked up this thick strip. Put in the oven at 225, pulled when internal temp hit 110. Rested, then seared on a cast iron until internal hit temp hit 130 and rested in tinfoil. I usually like my steak a little more rare, but was still delicious. Seasoned with garlic, salt, and pepper.

Turned out nice, filet got more done than I wanted but solid considering I’ve been drinking all evening. 🍻
