Starts with a great deal on New York strip from the local grocery store Central Fresh.

Approximately 1.5 inch thick steak, just about enough for a nice crust and internal texture contrast. Each steak was probably about 12oz.

Generous seasoning on both sides with the salt and pepper grinder took a toll on my wrist.

Fresh rosemary and garlic for maximum hipster score.

Bagged with olive oil and sealed using the water displacement method. Ready for action.

And it has begun! A clip to keep them together without having to fish out the bags later.

Action shot from the side.

Searing time! Butter is love.

The ????is resting.

Dull steak knifes result in more of a tear than a cut, but delicious nevertheless. Also made mashed butter with some potatoes and steamed broccoli for a balanced diet.

This looks so delicious. How long did you leave them in the water?

Mashed butter with potatoes huh, an Andy moment.

Did you used clarified butter in the pan? I just found out your supposed to use it with searing steak cause it has a higher smoking point

Don't forget to season the fat and sear the fat sides, too!

Satan uses that much pepper too. Meat is the best flavor for meat

Got a sous vide controller for Xmas and tried it out on a sirloin first, gotta say I already love it. You go an hour at 129?

An hour and half at 129 actually. According to the ChefStep app that's what I needed for this thickness.

I did mine for an hour at 135 but it came out a little too well done for my liking. Of course I might have seared it a little long too

Whats the purpose of the container with water?

It's a way to cook the steak to exact temperatures throughout.

Sous vide is a technique that involves cooking things in heated water at low temp over longer time. The pan searing is just for the outside

That's what the sous vide is. It cooks it to an even temp by heating up the water

I kinda wonder that too. The skillet is all I've ever needed.

Yes please, why you do it?

You do the main portion of cooking by essentially poaching your protein then finish it in a pan for color and crust.

Google beer cooler steak. It's a redneck substitute. Cheap way to try sous vide.
