Tonight will be twice-bacon-wrapped Filet Mignon, 3 pounds remaining. Baked potatoes (sweet for the girls) and steamed spinach.

When you buy 7+ pounds, making a helper meal with it is just awesome.

You only get a thick overdone layer if you just dump coals in the whole grill and leave the steak over the coals the entire time like an idiot, which is exactly what happened in all those stupid French government propaganda pics of sous vide vs. charcoal steaks disseminated to unsuspecting Godly Americans.
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.








If you understood sous vide cooking, you'd be doing it too.

OMG! That steak from SRF was by far THE BEST steak I've ever cooked & consumed. There are just no words to describe how wonderfully decadent every juicy bite was. 10/10

So after reading all this, I'm cleaning up drool and thinking about buying one of these Sue Veede gizmos.

Question for the pros, before I drop coin:
-- If you have 4-6 people coming over for steaks, is it reasonable to expect results as good with a much bigger pot of water?
-- How do you handle people's desire for varying doneness -- on the grill or leaving it in the water longer? My friend's likes range from still moving to Texas shoe leather.

The one on the let isn't cooked perfectly. The fat on the right is white and isn't rendered, it's disgusting.

Get the 1200W unit and 6 steaks will be fine. The problem will be the range in temp. Rare is 130. MR is 135. Med is 140. etc... You'd need one for each temp which now makes that dinner very expensive.

The Sous Vide machine will keep the water at the correct temperature. Just make sure there is enough water and the container is large enough.

You can sear a little longer for those who want it more done.

Leaving it in the water longer does not cook the steaks to a more level of doneness. You have to remove the ones that are cooked less, increase the temp and cook the others another hour at the higher temp.
