Diner Blue Plate Special - Smoked Top Round Eye w/ Mash and Gravy

[civilsmoker]

Been preparing tonight’s meal……the Vac Pack one has been sitting in the SV till dinner. Generally I’m a hot air or flame cooker of meat but this is more of a post cook SV for tenderness, many high end places do this for steak after the initial sear, cool, vac seal and then hold over night or two…..once to temp a quick hot butter bath on the the plate……

Time for round 2!

Ran this in the SV at 135 for 8 hours….. then slicing!

since this was round 2 we changed it up…..I added some chopped onion in a 1/2 recipe with the previous left over gravy and then we did roasted baby spuds……. YUM

What I will say is the 2 day vac rest and SV bath allowed for the salt to go all the way through the roast, even Mrs C had 3 slices and she never has leftover meat….this was pure money!

Oh and dessert on the healthy side again… lol!

Thanks luvc! It’s a easy cook but it’s comfort all the way!

Many thanks zw! The gravy is “homemade” but the beef stock and chicken bone broth were commercial. It’s a quick gravy about an hour. I have some dry age trimmings in the freezer that would have been perfect for this but forgot till after….

One more round of din din for this one….this was also on the crave list!

Toasted up a SD slice

Then some American cheese that went under the broiler…

Next up was some pan seared mash that went over the toast and cheese

I cut some really thin slices and into the last little bit of the gravy to warm them….

Then bingo over the top!!!!

So this is the third and final money shor of this cook!

Thanks for viewing!

Thats kinda like a premium, top shelf SOS. That looks darn good

Thanks JOL and yea is a dressed-up SOS, with regard to SOS some shaved beef and some bourbon in it makes it a "DISH"

After I did the mash I also thought about a sunny side egg over the top and sans mash....might have to do that next time!
