  1. I love it....All great uses!

     

    I vote for getting a Vacmaster or other vacuum sealer so you don't need to OD on the larger cuts.

    As a working father of 3, who also does all the cooking, I routinely freeze packets of pork and brisket for quick dinners.

    Then simply pop them defrosted OR frozen into the sous vide water bath and return to the desired temperature without further cooking.

  2. 9.5 pounds. 13.5 hours at 235 and it could of gone a bit longer but the children were hungry. Slider buns, cole slaw, and vinegar based red sauce

    Accompanied by the the super fancy cornbread made with Jiffy mix and a can of corn....

  3. That looks great. A well balanced meal with the chocolate dipped peanut butter. If I were you I'd call him/her back in and operate on something different. Tell 'em you like the 2016 Lamborghini. 

    LMAO

  4. Decadence last night - not off the KK....gifts from a grateful patient..... caviar and white truffles

    Followed by chunky peanut butter dipped in chocolate

  5. In a word....Fantastic

    The cook was 2 prime 30 day dry aged bone in NY strips . My usual 2 inch thick cut.

    Sous vide for 90 minutes at 129 followed by a 700 degree sear on the new charcoal. It picked up a great flavor.

  6. I have, and it is unclear that the myth was truly busted. Read the final paragraphs closely. Our cookers are nearly airtight. Especially for a low and slow. So while you are looking you are losing moisture. I have felt the humid hot air come up from my briskets. Also, it basically says while you are looking you are not cooking so keep it to a minimum. And if you are not fully heat soaked in a KK the return to temp can be very long. Much longer than those graphs indicate. It is very dependent on the amount of charcoal lit and airflow. That article over simplifies. As does the expression itself. But the fact remains, when the lid is up the temperature drops, and cooking slows.

     

    IMHO....I like to think about these things a little
