Update on the Public Disclosure and On-Sale Bar Doctrine. Secret Methods! EP146

If you disclose your product or sell it before you have a patent application on file, you may be barred from getting a patent due to the on-sale bar doctrine. But what if you have a secret METHOD, like a secret way to age steaks to make them more delicious, and you never disclosed or sold that that METHOD even though you sold the steaks?
