    We’re doing big thick pork chops today, sous vide, then searing.

    Looks amazing – also, can I ask why the fork is bedazzled?

    “We’re having boiled meat again?” Is what gets said at my house.

    I don’t let my in-laws see in-process. They get all weird about it. “Oh it’s going to taste like plastic! Why are you boiling it?”

    If they don’t know, suddenly it’s the best steak/pork/ham/whatever they’ve ever had

    Lovely!
    I serve a Boursin cheese on the side which goes really well with beef.
    Mine is on the go right now.
    Perfection!
    Shake off the remarks OP. Proof is in the pudding.
    Sous vide doesn’t screw stuff up if used properly.
    Read the room and adjust as needed on Christmas.

    Looks perfect. I can taste it from here. Good job!

    Perfection. I did a 5.5 pound prime boneless rib roast SV in a Home Depot bucket last night then blasted on the smoker at 475. Came out awesome.

    Did some strip roasts yesterday with blue cheese fondue and buerre rouge. Came out amazing.

    Boomers have such a tough time understanding sous vide. Before my mom passed away it was “are you using that bubbler thing again?”

  11. AnComApeMC69

    Yep! I’ve made $200 roasts in an Igloo cooler too. You ain’t seen nothing yet.

    Looks gawjus – assuming you seared it off afterwards?

    I’m a smoker guy but picked up a sous vide stick last month and getting ready to give her a whirl shortly…

    My wife’s family is the same way. If they don’t know something (either ingredients or techniques), it’s “doing it wrong”. I just tell them no one in the kitchen and it’s been working out well this year for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They got weirded out about me brining our Thanksgiving turkey is a cooler overnight in the garage. Until they tasted the turkey the next afternoon of course.

    We did a beef tenderloin roast and my MIL said she’s never roasting one again 😂 We did a pre-sear, 133° for about 2 hours, and then a post-sear. Turned out a perfectly even medium rare. A little hickory smoked salt on it and it was delectable

  15. My dad in law asks for the “roast cooked in a fish tank” every year now.
