So it seems this community was created around the time of the great migration and never took off. Well, I’m hoping to change that and grow this community to where it deserves to be. I love sous vide cooking and learning new recipes and tips to try. I’ll do my best to post something most days and hope I can encourage members to as well. So please take part in the discussion and post tips, recipes, or anything else related to sous vide. Ask questions as well.

And please feel free to reach out or comment below with suggestions or ideas on how we can grow this community. I look forward to talking with you all in the comments!

    Upvoted for the social interaction and visibility.

    Based on the descriptions given in the comments this seems to be a lot of work!

    I’m way too lazy for sousvide. Uncultured heathen wishing you the best in your community bump!

      It’s really not at all. You throw your food in a bag and place it in a container filled with water and an immersion circulator. Then you set a temp and time and leave it for a couple hours. Come back to done food. Most people then throw it on a grill or hot pan for a couple minutes to sear and get a nice crust, but you don’t have to. It’s super easy and gives you way better tasting than most other methods.

      Nah, it’s exactly the opposite: super lazy. It’s like using a crock pot, except with fancier equipment (e.g. a vacuum sealer and an immersion circulator) and not limited to braised dishes.

      Yes… And no.

      For a steak or two, it’s a lot of work. But if you’ve got a dinner for 4+ people, you have a water bath with all your entree portions ready to go, no hassle, no worry about timing.

      Also, if you tackle a large cut like a pork shoulder, it’s really a set it and forget it… Way easier than smoking, and less hassle than an oven braise, and with better results.
