Oh yeah I love to cook. Everyone around here knows that lol.I am interested in sous vide but always wondered how much better it could be than searing a roast in the frying pan then cooking it 2.5 hours in my old school roasting pan with lid. So it just cooks in a plastic bag in a water bath?
This makes me want to make pot roast with carrots and potatoes this week LOL
My favorite way to cook steak is grilled, next is with on the stove searing/pan in the oven/ or searing it entirely in a pan on the stove while basting constantly with butter.
I love to cook and it seems you do as well Gary!
But yes sous vide is an amazing way to get perfect steaks. You can add herbs and butter to the bag to get a head start on flavoring your meat. Then butter baste on the stove with the same herbs to reinforce those flavors. It’s like reverse searing/reverse pan roasting. By the time you pull it out of the water bath it’s already at the perfect temp. You just have to put a sear on it. Or you can even use a torch to give it that grilled look. If you ever get a sous vide machine just remember the quicker you sear the outside the better. Because as I said earlier, it’s already done.
