    They say to leave the butter out of the bag. Supposedly the butter draws the flavor out of the meat and holds it in the milk fat. Save the butter for the end of your sear instead.

    I recommend salt and pepper on the steak in the bag.

  3. Never butter in the bag for steaks. Only use fat for fish,lobster,shrimp, and vegetables

    Salt, pepper, smashed garlic, rosemary in bag at 130f 1-2hrs. Butter doesn’t really do much at that temp I found so I just use it to sear afterwards. Good med rare with amazing flavors

    150 for 12 hours with margarine would be better

    Is this a NY strip cut from a Buffalo, or is this a strip steak from Buffalo, NY?

    For strips ribeyes and sirloin I do 137 

    Butter’s extremely controversial. However, if you really want to do it, make sure you only use a very small amount

    From what I talked to chefs about if you don’t overdue it it’s fine

    Most fats will “mute” the flavor of the protein you’re cooking.

    Use mayo instead of butter when you sear, it really gives a nice crust

    No butter, salt, pepper, garlic, 2 hours at 137, ice bath then sear. Anything else?

    Any thoughts on serving with a red wine mushroom gravy on top?
