The secret of dry aging on Omaha Steaks

Omaha Steaks are considered tasty, but there’s a secret most people don’t know. Omaha Steaks, like most steakhouse meats, are dry-aged. Dry aging beef is a process that pulls moisture away from the cut of meat. Dry aging pulls extra flavor out of the meat, and dries it out just enough to make the Maillard reaction stronger. The Maillard reaction browns and caramelizes the meat, making it that much tastier.
