tony b Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 For most of us, the Anova is the "gold standard" for home units. It's definitely worth the extra bucks IMHO. My nephew has only used his once so far, so I can't compare them as far as ease of use, reliability, etc. This is the Anova 2.0 version. Most of us have the original. This one has a major improvement, and NO, it's not the Bluetooth part! It's the adjustable height clamp. Allows a lot more flexibility in what size pots/containers you can use with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKenzie Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Thanks, Paul. I have been doing sous vide cooking for many years. It is another tool in the book, one that I would not be without. I have the Poly Science circulator, it was a very early player in the game.

Paul Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Put anything inside? I like to put butter, chopped onion, and rosemary inside and let it tumble around during the spin. YUM! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Beauty, Jeff! Don't think I've seen a nicer roast chicken. Hear ya, Paul. I like to inject as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pork Barrel is a local brand (appeared on Shark Tank) and found a giant container of this Rub last year at Costco for $6 or $7. Figured I'd give it a shot and it's become the family favorite on spun chook. It's a savory rub with no sugar. I don't inject or do anything else but truss, spin it at 400° for 1 hour and 40 minutes. Perfect every time unbelievably juicy. http://www.porkbarrelbbqstore.com/collections/pork-barrel-bbq-spice-rubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ora Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Nice chook I still can believe how juicy they turn out on a KK Outback Kamado Bar and Grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon B. Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Sunday fun day...................................tried out a crock pot wings recipe for lunch: Cooked them too long in the crock pot and they fell apart under the broiler. ...................but very tasty! Then for dinner we smoked a 14# turkey. Stuffed it with apples, oranges & onion. 4 hours at 325* with apple wood smoke. Turned out great: Made mashed potatoes with skins (with assorted colors), dressing and gravy from the drippings.

Steve M Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Spun a gobbler Rubbed it with slap yo daddy APR and threw it on the rotisserie. Hopefully, my new rotisserie spit rod will be here this week. In the meantime, I used the basket. After about an hour and 15 minutes at 400, it hit 160 and came off the grill. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
