sure

but you are not able to control the temp as precisely as you can with sous vide

Yeah, I keep my grill pretty clean. If there is any ash in the bottom I spread it around thin to allow lots of airflow.

Can this been done on an electric stove with a pot of water? I wonder if the on again off again nature of those burners would keep the water at a constant temp?

Yes. You will have to monitor it kinda closely, but yes, you can do it on a stovetop.

You can also do it with hot water in a cooler. Again, just have to check the water and add hot water when it starts to cool down.

I think it is about time to start a dedicated Sous Vide thread. I just threw a 16oz NY Strip in mine at 129F. Gonna let it go for about 1.5 hr. Then finish in skillet with garlic butter. Seems like there is a Sous Vide something thread on the FDB every week. Would be nice to have a running one to just add pics and recipes to.

I was thinking a heavy cast iron pot would hold the heat for when the eye cycles.

Degas should be the honorary thread starter, since he (she?) was the first to introduce sous vide to this board

I control the temp pretty damn well and so has man since the beginning of a temp gauge. What other benefits can you give me?

From what I have seen, the ice is not to prevent a rise in temp from the sous vide bath itself. It is to give you a buffer of a few degrees for the very hot sear. I am not icing it down for three hours. Just a few minutes.

As salmon said, lots of people who know way more than me do it so I do it too.


Now that makes sense, but I don't usually have a problem with the sear overcooking my steak. Why not just reduce the temp of the water bath a couple of degrees.

So you want to watch the pot for hours on end?

You pull the steak when the center reads the correct temp, but everything outside of the center is a higher temp

Sous vide the entire steak is the correct temp

But by all means, keep being a try hard if you must

Posted in the WFDT thread, but this was a choice NY Strip, $5.99/lb and it ate like a Prime $19.99/lb steak. Cooked at 129F for 1.5 hrs.

I have no doubt that the slow rise in temp does a better job of breaking down the fibers creating a different texture. I am not sure what the food scientist say about that but I can tell a difference.
