My ANOVA sous vide circulator arrived!

http://anova.myshopify.com/

A bit larger than I expected at 2 5/8 diameter x 15 tall, but still small enough to store in the kitchen. Precalibrated to +- .01 C which is way overkill but the company makes scientific waterbaths and chillers so it's manufactured to that specification. It fits any container at least 7 inches tall so I'm using my 12 quart stock pot but it can be used with ice chests up to 1.5 inches thick. Now I van sous vide roasts or whole poultry if I want! Wonder how long a turkey would take . . .
 
I've been happy with my Aqua Chef (+- 1 C http://www.aquachef.com/ ) but even though the bath is too small cook more than two chicken breasts it takes up too much counter space so I store it in the garage when not in use and I had to modify it to make it more practical (added insulation, circulation pump etc).
 
The only thing is that they don't provide shipping confirmation or tracking number unless you ask for it and it takes 7-10 days to ship plus 5 days FedEx time. If you live in Texas you'll pay sales tax because it's manufactured in a Houston suburb (yea!).
 
Sous vide is becoming my cooking method of choice, partucularly for beef. Cooked beef short ribs at 128 F for 2 1/2 days and they looked/tasted medium rare but were as tender as tenderloin! Chuck steak cooked at 128 F for 12 hours tastes like medium rare ribeye. Because it's vacuum sealed I can prepare steak a day or two in advance and reheat without it tasting "left over". You do have to sear or brown the meat after cooking but that happens extremely fast.

<<<has no idea in the world what the primitive is jibber-jabbering about.

1. Have you found this method to be of any use for Chicken or Fish?

Dad says he is off Beef and Pork long term.

2. Oh yeah! Chicken breasts are moist and fish is never overdone.

I don't care for shellfish cooked this way but fin fish is easy and pretty quick. Salmon @ 124 F for 20 minutes is perfect to my taste.
 
Season with your favorite recipe and then seal. I like tarragon and lemon zest.

V*****s are good too. Carrots @ 183 F for 45 minutes are tender-crisp and taste more 'carroty' because there is no flavor leached out into the cooking water. I'm still working on other v*****s to find my perfect temp/time. The good news is that whatever you do it will be EXACTLY the same next time you do it so you can refine the doneness to your taste exactly.
 
There are apps for your cell phone or android device and I-whatever that give you time and temp recommendations. Google is your friend.

Fer cripes sake! I'd be eatin' the lid before this foo foo hot plate would give me my dinner!

In my opinion, once beef is thawed or fresh, cook the stuff before it even warms to room temp. Keep this in mind and a "rare" steak is always, a "rare" steak!

Of course if ya just eat "veggie" beef your results may very. The lid will taste better.

Let's not forget one of the pillars of being a primitive:  sticking things in inappropriate places.


Mark my words, it won't be long before this thing ends up in somebody's butt in the flamin lib primitive's kitchen, morphing from a sous vide into a sous bidet.

I hope no one pulls any identity theft on the pooooor baby. She just might jump off the roof of the next freebie.

Pretty sure she's inadvertently put enough info on the net for a predator. Or, "lookin' fer luv" mighta done it on purpose.

A predator would be the best thing that could happen to Amber.  No matter how little the predator cared for her general welfare, it would be more than the concern Amber seems to show for herself.

If the body raises one's temperature to just over 100F to fight infection, cooking at 128F will absolutely wipe bacteria out.  There's not many a microbe that can withstand that, IIRC.  CR, could you help me out here?

Quick Duck Duck Go search.

"Bacteria won't multiply in the colder temperatures of a refrigerator or freezer, or at temperatures hotter than 141°F. Where they thrive is between 41°F and 140°F, a region known as the "Food Temperature Danger Zone."

"Temperatures hotter than 165°F kill most bacteria within a few seconds. But to do the job, it's a food's internal temperature that has to reach 165°F,"


I believe it is the White blood cells that are fighting the infection and the rise in core temp is a byproduct of that process.

Please don't get me wrong, I believe it is still safe for the DUmmie to eat the food cooked at that temp given that they both feed off their hosts and are probably given a professional courtesy.

In fact I would suggest a few glasses of water straight from the stream, no man made bottled water bulls*it for that DUmmie.  Drink it just the way nature intended.  :-)
