The first thing I did was a 2" New York Strip. I didn't know what to do so I just vac sealed it without adding anything. I set my Anova at 129 for 2 hours, padded it dry adding some kosher salt and ground pepper and seared it in a cast iron skillet. It was by far the best steak my wife ever had...
Yea I don't know the answer, there are a lot of comments out there on it. Most say to sear it or torch it to make sure you get full coverage and it will be fine. I have done a lot of steaks, chicken and even some Ahi Tuna and have never come across this. Hopefully others won't panic if they come...

Hope you like yours as much as I do!
