    Corned beef season

    I have found with cuts like corned beef that I like to run hot and go shorter. So the flat (going to smoke the point for pastrami) will go int o a 180° bath for 10-12 hours.

    Pre Sear on An Eye of Round?

    When cooking roasts one reason you sear then cook is to lock in the juices. With Sous Vide since you’re cooking in a sealed bag you’re cooking in the juices so pre-searing isn’t really needed.

    First SV chucky

    Looks good . I have found that you get just as good of a roast using higher temp water and shorter cooking times. I’ll run 180°f for 10-12 hours. Great texture and you’re not running the unit for half a week.

    SV Brisket Point

    It looks along the lines of a brisket. Which you can cook like a chuck roast. My opinion on the Sous vide for cuts like chuck and brisket is I have found that I prefer the texture using a higher temp cook for shorter periods of time. 1 like to run the Sous vide around 180°f and cook for 10-12...

    Winter time griddle in garage?

    Ed you are correct about the exhaust venting. However the. N is toon air is drawn from the space, at least for most units. Aa for gas stove tops and ovens there is no direct vent. With all that said we always have the hood fan on when using the BS indoors. Very rarely do it this way as it stinks...

    Winter time griddle in garage?

    Garage? We roll ours into the house. Now before the Karens spout off about oxygen depletion, how many have gas cook tops? How many have gas furnaces and water heaters in the garage or basement?

    SV silicone bags?

    You can use some silicone bags but not all. Stasher brand is one that is Sous vide safe. I have used our stasher bags without issue. Just be mindful to keep the openings above the water.

    Griddle top is peeling

    You haven’t properly seasoned it . whatever oil you use you need to find out where it polymerizes at. Do a google search and you can fine those temps. While it’s a quick method to strip wire wheels are not the best for striping cooktop surfaces and can actually make it harder for seasoning to...

    CanCookers

    Can cookers don’t require electricity to work. They work as low pressure cookers. Come from the ingenuity of dairy farmers using their cream cans for cooking meals.
