What did everyone cook today?
-
Now we are starting to get serious about this wonderful weather suddenly coming through (Indian Summer). Time for some truly slow smoked (Texas Style without the crutch) ribs & wings, then some dogs thrown in for the last haul to provide some good slaw dogs for lunch later in the week, there ain’t nothing like it, anywhere!calldoctoday Now, that’s a bounty. Your fridge must smell heavenly.

Just a simple sous vide chicken cordon blue with Amish noodles and Broccoli. No where as ambitious as the posts above.

zbigjeff It looks mighty tasty. Doesn’t have to be complicated to be good. Sometimes I like a good BLT.

Chef lkrfletcher Thank you Chef and lkrfletcher. I tried something non-conventional this time. Had ground ham hanging around in the freezer, thawed it and added equal amounts of shredded Gruyere. I also butterflied the chicken, pounded it out (which by definition should result in a more tender result) and wrapped in in plastic film to keep its shape. Then, I said “let’s sous vide it and see what happens”. Well, the ultimate result did not disappoint. After the sous vide, we breaded it and stuck it in an air fryer for 10 mins at 400. Not a bad result. But, thinking pan frying it is a better option. The people sitting around the table said “it’s very tender, a bit different and had very good taste”. Thinking that’s a good final result when one makes others smile. You guys in the big leagues have taught me to be different in the “approach” and test it out. Thanks for helping me push the envelope.

Yesterday I made a sous vide chuck roast, I vacuum tumbled it with Butter Garlic Marinade for about 40 minutes, then injected the remaining marinade. I sous vided it for approx. 24 hours at 133, then rubbed it with Butter Garlic Rub then pan seared and the results were delicious. I also made some homemade garlic mashed potatoes to go with it.

Tex_77 Wow!!! That looks juicy. Could you taste the marinade after cooking it? Or was it subtle? Just wondering. It sounds like a piece of heaven.
zbigjeff You can taste the seasoning, it is really good.

Tex_77 Tasting it is a “good thing” for you and your family. Like: What’s not good about garlic and butter? Come on!!! Did you at least get a hug for the bounty? Just did a good size order with Walton’s. Will have to wait till next time to order it.

Tex_77 That is the best way to do roast IMO. Sous Vide just changes the game completely.

Tex_77 I’ve alone introduced 12 people to sous vide in the last year. In the beginning, they all said it’s just a fad. Then, they tried a variety of meals prepared both ways (with the same seasonings) and were wow convinced. It’s hilarious that a couple said they found it on their own. Go figure. But, in the end, many more families have widened their palate/food prep. It’s not an end all by any means. But, does give variation to prep techniques. Will be sous viding freshly ground brisket/knuckle burgers tonight for a group just for grins. Yay for all

I got a lot of folks on the sous vide wagon over the last couple of years or so, too. Like you, many said it was just a fad or wasn’t real cooking or was dangerous or was too expensive. The hype (and fall) of molecular gastronomy didn’t help with those.
However, not that the memory of molecular gastronomy and the price of sous vide equipment decreased, folks have been much more eager to check it out.

TexLaw What’s also hilarious is listening to those same people who say it’s dangerous have had the same thing prepared for them in a restaurant and loved it. I didn’t tell them how it’s prepared (just happened to know the chef). Only if they knew. Maybe I will tell them in the future. But, will deny the facts and ask “how do you know?”. I just smile and shake my head. (aka: many things are fake news. But not this one). Stay the course and keep making “things” awesome.
