This one was $99. Seems reasonable for a highly rated and reviewed kitchen implement that should deliver a nice ROI over the time. Certainly easier than my current dilemma shopping for something to replace my Weber Smokey Mountain and 2 grills...

Last I looked a few months back they were pushing $200 given the output watts. Higher the watts...higher the price. I’ll take a look tomorrow.

Also helps I had $100 in gift cards after cashing in some credit card points. So, it was basically free. Paid $26 for the container and lid. Not a paid investment if I say so myself.

fasten your seatbelt, Jesse. you're about to go for a ride. (y) immersion circulator is one of the best cooking tools a meat eater can own and there is plenty of info out there for guidance. for certain, as long as I have electricity and a bucket of water, I'll never "throw a steak on the grill" again as long as I live. sous vide cooking isn't always the easiest way, but for a growing list of foods, it is the best way, imo.

Ummmmm, basically free? How much did you pay in interest to get your “free” $100? 😂

Don’t answer that, just pointing out that nothing is free. Goes along with the talk we had the other day. 😉👍🏼

My cousin has basically married one of these things for cooking. I don’t have one yet. I personally enjoy staring at my grill drinking beer on long cooks.

Needless to say sometimes you just don’t have time to do that.😣 Do these things come with the vacuum sealer and bags? Also how hard is it find the bigger bags and what is a good one to buy?

Check out amazingribs.com they do a pretty extensive grill review. Plus his book is my Bible when it comes to a lot of my cooking.

Even in a global pandemic, I can decide to try a french style of cooking and be doing it 48 hours later. First meal will get done Sunday. I have other plans for tomorrow 😎

I bought this flat (and another, and some butts, and some ribs) the last time I went to Costco back in April when I didn't have to wear a useless mask. I have one more day size job next week and I'm done with work until I feel like doing more, maybe February. cooking this other flat has been on my radar for a few weeks, but I've been busier than a coon with two dicks for the last month or so. need to make some room in the freezer, so one more smoke before I disappear into the landscape for a couple of months. My Dad really likes my brisket, and gave me the immersion circulator as a gift, so I'll invite the folks up for dinner and some handgun shooting on Sunday. it's the most wonderful time of the year. I'm cooking brisket and going bow hunting. :D

really nice brisket flat ready for a long, hot bath for 50 hours. chill it off and finish it on Sunday. nothing but coarse sea salt and coarsely cracked pepper for the sous vide. apply brisket rub before I put it on the charcoal.

Scroll back a few pages. I’ve done a few like this already. Process refined as close to perfect (to my taste) as I’ll ever get it. No better way to cook a brisket if you are more concerned with results than tradition, imo.

I got in to this Sous Vide just recently, the boneless skinless chicken breast is just awesome, can't get enough of it
