This is the first time I have sous vide a whole chicken but it won't be the last. A friend and I decided to cook ourselves a fun dinner. She did the appetizer and the dessert and I did the main course. This is the recipe for the chicken- https://recipes.anovaculinary.com/recipe/sous-vide-whole-chicken The trussed chicken goes in the bag with stock, celery, leeks, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, thyme, bay leaves and soy sauce. Here are the veggies ready to go into the bag with the chicken- The whole works goes on for 6 hours at 150F. But we end up with a snow storm and decide it is not safe for my friend to come out. I finish the chicken, cool it and put it in the fridge for overnight. The next day about 2 hours before dinner the bag is put back in the bath at 150F to heat up. We received a good foot of fluffy snow, it was very pretty. Appetizer, toasted bread with blue cheese, slice of pear and prosciutto and a little thyme. Chicken and veggies out of the bath- You have to love sous vide to appreciate that pix.. We removed the skin, dried off the veggies and coated them with olive oil and baked at 450F until they were cooked and a little charred. Reduced the sauce. We didn't take any plated pictures. Dessert, maple cheese cake, rich, rich, rich. Finished dinner off with a specialty coffee, no pix This morning for breakfast it was leftovers for me with purple crack. Then for dinner more leftovers except I cooked carrots. We found we didn't like the roasted veggies but the sauce was killer. We both loved the chicken, it was tender and juicy. I would do this again in a heart beat the chicken and sauce were sooooooo tasty. There was another piece of pie for dinner.

Well my son came over before heading out on a lobster and crab trip so I cut it earlier then I wanted to but all in all not bad juice tender great pull lacking smoke ring .My son took all the of the point for a meal for him and his crew on the way out to the fishing grounds

It’s Allbout good food family and friends also having a ball cooking

I think Mac is the star photographer for this site. I always feel like I can reach right out and grab the food off those photos LOL

Another wonderful meal Mac the colors are amazing.

Very nicely done, MacKenzie (as always!)

Yes he has been a fishing captain for 8 years very proud of him and his accomplishments.Tell you the truth get tired of lobster but love crab and scallops

I was sitting here thinking about breakfast when I saw your post. Purple crack eggs it will be! I always love your pictures. Nicely done as always!

Tekobo, I like those meals that keep on giving especially when they are as tasty as this one was. Bruce, those potatoes were nicely creamed and as I mentioned that sauce was to die for can't wait to do a hot chicken sandwich.

Mac did you cut the whole chicken into pieces or just put it in the bag without piecing it out? Those pictures are wonderful, that appetizer looks delicious. So does that maple cheesecake! Ok I took a closer look at the picture and see the chicken is not pieced out, my bad. Those mashed potatoes carrots and chicken look yuuuuuumy

Sounds like a meal that just keeps on giving. Tasty looking.

I'm wondering now if I sent the bottle to the wrong person lol.https://www.wildfirechilli.com.au/pineapple-express.html .starting to think Tony b might have liked it I'm sure ckreef will let me know but used sparingly it will work .people down here on the chilli train have been making some local sauses with some funny names.

I keep checking and I'll keep watching the mailbox.

Robert's package that was supposed to deliver yesterday is now in delayed status. I figured as much as the south just can't handle a little snow.

Looks totally "Saiko"

Fantastic meal, except for the tofu anyway - LOL Crud? What crud? You have a long way to go. And such a white interior. Soon enough that will be black as coal.

Looks fantastic, great imagination. Don't worry about a little crud, consider it a badge/medal of honor.

Looks like we can get it on Amazon, but not Prime. https://smile.amazon.com/Mitani-Classic-Chicken-Salt-100g/dp/B0170AX75W/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1516297597&sr=8-2&keywords=mitani+chicken+salt

I was just playing around and created a KK owners map through Google. Take a look and let me know if you all like it. I have made it open for all to add to. Excuse the picture I have, I just wanted to see how it works. If there is no interest I will remove it. http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8& ... ,78.75&z=4 Roy
