I removed the butter (second pic) now marinating it, few questions
- For how long should I marinate it?
- When sous vide, what temp? I saw some saying 135, others 145 and up to 175 degrees, which one is the recommended?
- How many hours?
Thank you in advance!

137 for 2.5 hours is where I’d go.

Be wary of the person who recommended this. They’re trying to hurt you and your family.
I’d go 135 for 2 hours, tops.

You caved

People freak out about butter but it honestly makes such a little impact, included or not. But I hardly see anyone point out that raw herb in the bad will not break down and impart a cooked herb flavor. Vegetable cells will not break down under 180f and so you get a raw herb flavor when you include them in the bag. If you like that it’s fine, but it’s a much more pungent flavor than they’d otherwise impart when cooking.
You are quite the tease, OP….
Jason Logsdon is also a great source for sous vide education. He is co-founder of the ISVA (International sous Vide Association), and has a website with very helpful videos. https://www.amazingfoodmadeeasy.com/
Put butter if you want to
Personally prefer dry brine then 129 for 2 hours. After that pat it dry followed by 15 minutes in the refrigerator then season and sear with butter. No grey band and perfect medium rare.
205 for 6 hours, then straight into the microwave on high for 5 minutes to finish it off. Let rest in the sink for 2 hours. Slice and serve
