Ribeye Caps...you have no idea how much I wanted to know the correct name for these. Never see them, but had them as a BBQ at a friend of a friends. We all drank the rest of the day so totally forgot the name of them by the next day.
Next time I went to buy steaks I wanted to get these and couldn't remember the name...very annoying!
Know what I'm going to be picking up at the butcher next time I go!!
BTW, those look perfect and now I'm hungry.
Thanks so much for the compliment! Yes, I never knew the name of them either. After all these years, I am still learning something new about cooking meat every week. Sometimes at the butcher shop, they will call them "butcher's butter" (at least that is what I've read). We got ours at Costco and they weren't too pricey.
Wow, wouldn't expect a better cut at Costco...never had a membership but always think of buying clubs in more of a lower end light for anything fresh. May need to rethink that.
Wonder if it wasn't to pricey because most people don't know about the cut so demand isn't super crazy. I mean everyone knows a filet and they price them high because of it, but really it's not the most flavorful cut of meat and the price to me isn't justified.
