The 29-year-old, whose father is the well-known sofer Bentsion Dansky, said what \u201cstarted as a hobby\u201d grew into a business as friends started asking him to do barbecues for them.<\/p>\n

Dry-aged meat is at the heart of the business, with its range starting at a minimum of 35 days, followed by 45- and 60-day options, with the latter being relatively uncommon and only carried out when specifically ordered.<\/p>\n
Dansky said the process was far from simple. \u201cThe beef is kept in a carefully controlled environment where temperature, humidity and airflow are all precisely managed.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said as it aged, the meat developed \u201cexceptional tenderness and complexity of flavour that most people would not associate with standard beef\u201d.<\/p>\n
Dansky grades the meat according to its level of marbling. \u201cCombined with the dry-ageing process, this creates the rich, luxurious flavour and texture that sets premium dry-aged steak apart,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The quality of the cut is reflected in its price but, says Dansky: \u201cWhen there is good food out there, people are prepared to pay for it. It\u2019s like bringing a steakhouse to your own kitchen.\u201d<\/p>\n

The range also includes premium dry-aged burgers made from 100 per cent dry-aged beef. Dansky said the feedback he had received from customers had consistently described the burgers as \u201ca cut above the rest\u201d.<\/p>\n
For Dansky, however, quality is about more than simply the meat itself. \u201cFor me, good food starts with passion. If you\u2019re passionate about what you do, that comes through in the quality of the finished product,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
With the Leeds expansion now underway, he is already looking further afield. \u201cI\u2019m very excited to see where this can go. I just think the sky\u2019s the limit.\u201d<\/p>\n
