    They may not have them in stock, but you could make a request for the extra aging. Check out this link.

    Thanks for the reply. I 'll give it a shot, but I tried it at Gepperts and they'd do it if I ordered a whole side of beef

    This guy (not in Chicago) sells Prime dry-aged beef. You can choose cuts that are aged up to 60 days.
    My wine board buddies swear by his stuff. I've had 4 steaks from him and they were without a doubt the best meat I've ever had.

    Fox & Obel occasionally has dry-aged beef, though I'm not sure how reliably. Try calling them up:
    312.410.7301 (general number)
    312.379.0111 (butcher)
    best,

    The best you are going to get is from Zier's in Wilmette. While not 6 weeks, Dave does do his own dry aging and outside of real Kobe (I mean real Kobe A4 from Japan) or Australian #12 Waygu, its the best your going to get in Chicagoland.-Dick

    LAZ,

    Yes, a few times over the years and I wasn't particularly moved by either the dry age beef or house made sausage. Schmeisser's has it's loyal fans, I've not been able to see the beauty.

    Enjoy,
    Gary
