All my friends who have eaten my sous vide steak say they haven't had any steak like it or as good.

I've got a friend that has one of the fancy ones (not just the heater and bath, but rather the thousand dollar full unit) that I'm gonna go visit this weekend for the express purpose of bagging some steaks to perfection.
I'll try to get pics to rustle the jimmies.

What does it do differently? How is it better than my £15 DIY home set up?

Consistent temps

Self contained unit

Bigger penis









Really beyond the increase in girth I'm not sure, other than it being a well insulated single unit that claims faster heating and consistency.

I need pics and Mix6APlix @Mix6APlix level tutorials.

The fact that you haven't shown me, what I'm sure are some shiny ass well seasoned pans, tells me you are holding back the goodness.

Your cooking pics would likely be very popular.

Wait, when people give you shit for boiled steaks they're referring to sous vide?

I assumed you were actually boiling steaks because you're British.

Having said that sous vide gets pussy. At Christmas my brother did a brisket in sous vide, I'd gladly put it up against anything that came off a smoker. @Splinty and his countrymen in Texas would have been proud.

I'm a steak bagger man. Boil em all day.



But your brisket just needed a Texas smoker.

As it should be.

But im suspicious of the lack of bark.

You need bark and moistness. The competing goals is why it must be cooked so slow..

Look at the cook on my steak. Hard char on the outside, and the rest of it is a perfect swath of medium rare. You don't get that with Sous Vide. Or, I should say, perhaps you can. But a ripping hot piece of cast iron will be my go to until the day I die.

It had some bark. I'm not sure what he did to it before bagging it.

For me personally I'm currently on a jerky making kick.

Brisket needs to be low and slow to gelatinize the connective tissue. Ribeye, high and fast just to liquify the fats. Let that fat absorb into the meat, and you have happy goodness.

I have no doubt you're a more talented chef than me but if you're not using the sous vide, then I'm playing chess and you're playing scrabble.

Best jerky I had was some home made stuff that a co worker made.

I hate to sound like a pretentious cunt but it was. Second best was store purchased though
