Vacuum sealer recommendations.

[jokensmoken]

Hey everyone,
I'm making the plunge into sous vide cooking and need some advice on vacuum sealers...My itty bitty counter top model just won't do the job I envision.
I'd really like to try sous vide on packer cut briskets and butts. Experimenting with smoking them before and after sous vide cooking.
Any recommendations on a vacuum sealer that'll work...Or some other option for cooking LARGE cuts of meat sous vide.
I'm setting up a large cooler mod for my sous vide.
Any suggestions/recommendations without getting rideculous expensive?
Walt.

Take a look at what Lisa sells@ vacuum sealers unlimited. The VacMaster line is bomb proof.

I have the VacMaster Pro380 and wouldn't trade it for anything. Spend a bit more and get yourself a machine that will last a lifetime.

Not having a vacuum sealer doesn't mean you can't Sous Vide. Many just clip the bag to the top of whatever container you use. It does make it nice though to have one.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check them out...I know a vacuum sealer isn't absolutely required for Sous Vide, but I've been wanting a sous vide unit and a larger sealer for awhile.
Now that my kids are grown and the divorce is final for the first time in 25 years i have some room for MY TOYS...AND my tax refund is finally mine all mine and it's burning a hole in my pocket...lol
