MacKenzie Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Here's an idea for someone with big breakfast plans. Sous vide the whole package of bacon @ 147F for overnight or a few hours. It will then be cooked and tender. All that needs to be done after than is fry it up to crisp and colour it. I just did a few strips in the SV to test this out and the bacon is very good, nice and tender, melts in your mouth. I really did like bacon done this way. Breakfast this morning to taste test the SV bacon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon B. Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 What a wonderful idea!!!! Aunt Nancy cooks bacon for 70 people at our annual Champagne Breakfast on the 4th of July. I'm sure she will love this idea for next year!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony, I'll have my sister swing by and pick you up next year!!!!! Our family has been hosting this breakfast annually for over 30 years. A few years ago Aunt Nancy hired a local kid to take a drone video of the breakfast as a surprise. It turned out really well.

Aussie Ora Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Looks fantastic I don't have a sous vide machine just cook normally do you think they are worth it Outback Kamado Bar and Grill♨ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Aussie, sous vide control, in my opinion is a must in the kitchen. I would not be without one. In fact two would be nice, different temps for different baths. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Well done, Jon! I might take you up on that offer, ha, ha! I'd even be willing to brew a couple of beers for it. @Aussie Ora - MacKenzie is right; it's almost a "must have" in the kitchen. It's amazing all the things you can do with it. I would compare it to having a pressure cooker, as far as usefulness in the kitchen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyfish Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 After a breakfast like that I need a nap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dstr8 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Another vote for the necessity of a sous vide device in your kitchen. Some weeks I use it even more than my KK! There just isn't another way to conveniently and accurately get the same results... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon B. Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Used my sous vide just last night..................flank steak at 133* for 2 hours and then onto a screaming hot CI skillet. So good and so easy!! If mine broke today, I would replace it the next day!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
