Bought this piece at Trader joes (so nothing fancy).
Best by date was May 11th.
On the 10th I brine it with salt and leave it in the fridge (as is - open air). I wanted to reverse sear it, But I forgot about it and then we were travelling… so this thing has been drying out for 10 days now.

Is there any way we can cook this? Of course I wouldn’t eat it by myself, but I’m curious if I have inadvertently reproduced the moldy aging process you see in these butcher shops.

Texture is hard with some softness
