    Sure seems like quite the rage. I’ve read up on it some and would love to try it.

    I have a buddy that's really in to it. His steaks are good but I honestly don't notice a ton of difference. Maybe it's more suited to specific cuts, not sure.
    If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.

    I can’t imagine a boilt steak being much punk.

    I’d much rather burn them.

    I'm not a huge steak man myself, I'm wondering more how it does with veggies

    We steam all our veggies.....saves all the taste and nutrients.

    That sous thingy looks like an awful lotta trouble.....I'm with Tpost, I'd rather sear my steak over hot charcoal.

    I heard Chipotle does all their meats sous vide. I think a lot of fairly nice restaurants do as well. I can definitely see the benefit when trying to produce a consistent product on a commercial scale. I’m thicker steaks and roasts I’ve been trying the “reverse sear” method. Similar concept where you go relatively low temp/indirect until you get close to your desired temp, pull them off the grill crank up the temp and then put a good sear on your steak to finish it off.

    All the internet experts say to season right before the searing process, not during the cooking

    I did a reverse sear on the prime rib I made at Christmas and was quite pleased with it. I did put a good kosher salt crust on it first off though.
