          If you’re using a true sous vide setup, just set it to your target temperature and don’t worry about it. It might take an hour or a little more instead of 30 minutes, but you won’t overshoot.

              TexLaw Thanks for the advise. Just gathering info for using my new SV. Small meats i can work with, It’s the large roasts and Pork butts that i’m worried about pulling to early. I have all this stuff crammed in my head, almost reflex about grilling roasting, spit, and smoking meats. Been doing a pretty good job for 60years+, also a retired Engineer. Old school meat processing ideas, wrapped in Engineering foresight, and you’ll find 1 [censored] A-hole-RETENTIVE BBQ guy. I have a few Chef waterproof thermometers, but can’t be used underwater without breaking the bag vac seal for meat temp. How do you ck temp without piercing the bag?

                As TexLaw said… My Thermoworks does the trick!! Not promoting them, just saying. If it ain’t broke… don’t fix it!

                      PapaSop I did find out how to use the thermometer here. Common sense, but I’m a little short of that 😎
