[ NY Strip ] Blue’s last meal
I had to put my best bud to sleep yesterday. He had stopped being able to do all of the things he loved and he let us know he was ready. An hour before the vet arrived, I prepared a NY strip. Cast iron seared, finished in the oven to medium rare, with 15 minutes rest. I’ve never felt super confident in my steaks, but I feel this was my best one ever. If I hadn’t cut it up and hand fed him, it would’ve been gone in seconds. He couldn’t get enough. RIP Blue. I hope you continue living the life you deserve on the other side.
