If you’re a steak lover, you might have heard about dry-aged beef, but what exactly makes it so special? At Oak Barn Beef, we’re proud to offer premium dry-aged cuts, bringing out the best flavor and tenderness in every bite. Here’s a breakdown of what dry aging is and why it can make your next meal unforgettable.
Dry aging is a traditional process where beef is stored in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment for several weeks. During this time, the beef is exposed to air, which allows natural enzymes to break down the muscle tissue slowly, enhancing both texture and flavor. At Oak Barn Beef, we dry age our beef for a 14-21 days to achieve the perfect balance of tenderness and taste. For more information on what dry aging is, here is a good article to read!

When ordering premium beef online, one of the most common questions we hear is: “Why is Oak Barn Beef shipped frozen?” Some may wonder if frozen beef is as good as the fresh beef found at the grocery store. The truth is, freezing beef locks in freshness, preserves quality, and ensures a safe and delicious product—making it the best way to enjoy farm-to-table beef.
