I've had poo poo success doing a SV > roast, SV > Smoke seems like it'd be even more of a headache. I've tried https://www.sousvidelife.com/sous-vide-chinese-crispy-roasted-pork-belly-recipe and it's simply inferior to just roasting in the oven with foil protecting the flesh, you just cannot replicate the skin and I'm quite confident you'll never get as good of a bark as a day long smoke.

I don't have experience with pork butt but I did brisket a while ago where it went on the smoker first for 2 hours or so, and then into the circulator for 48 hours. It was without a doubt some of the best BBQ I've ever had. If I were going to do Kenji's recipe for butt, I'd probably flip the process around and smoke at 225* for 2 hours before going into the circulator. That way there's no risk of overcooking the meat or losing too much moistness.

I've used chef steps' pork shoulder a few times and it's turned out really great every time. Their timing and temp for getting a bark works especially well. https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/smokerless-smoked-pork-shoulder

large hands posted:sous vide chicken breasts sliced thin with a little lime juice and salt on top of pressure cooker pho ga has to be one of the fastest, tastiest low effort meals out there, I'm totally addicted What recipe do you follow for this? Searching turned up this Serious Eats pressure cooker pho ga recipe, but that uses chicken drumsticks in the pressure cooker which are what's then also used as the chicken in the dish. It seems like leaving the chicken out of the pressure cooker would cut down on the flavor in the broth, and adding more sous vide chicken to the pressure-cooked chicken would be redundant…

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:•The rub recipe he includes is really good. I like it better than the memphis dust recipe I normally use. But he uses too much of it, so either cut back on how much you use or cut back on the salt in the rub recipe. His ribs recipe has the same problem. First time I made it and followed the recipe they came out nearly inedible. 2nd time around I upped the liquid smoke a bit and cut the rub down and the ribs came out great.

I finally did some local spicy Italian sausages last night at 150 degrees for about an hour and finished them on the grill. God drat they were ridiculously tasty! Going to try the standard brats next, with the salty beer that was talked about on the previous page. Did up some thick cut pork chops at 140 as well, love how well pork turns out at that temp.

Getting the middle of something as large as a shoulder to safe temp takes a long time. There'll be a period of a few hours where it's in the danger zone. Biproducts from loving microbes care not about pasteurization.

Getting the center of the meat out of the danger zone is an acceptable time frame is what I'm talking about. The risk is low as the bacteria should be on the outside, but the food safety risk would be that the center spends a long time at a temp amenable to bacteria growth which produce heat stable toxins. By the time you eat it the bacteria are dead, but the toxins could remain. Which is why the excellent Douglas Baldwin guide on Sous Vide says to cut it into pieces no more than 70mm thick. And he cooks it at 176. But I considered it low enough risk that I forged ahead.

Mr. Wookums posted:Biproducts from loving microbes care not about pasteurization. The stuff that leaves byproducts is surface bacteria and spores which do not live beyond the surface of the meat anyway. This is why slow cooking or vizzling ground meat is not a good idea, but other large meat cuts is fine.

Or you could use drumsticks and save the shredded meat for something else. But the sv breasts are light years ahead of the pressure cooked drumstick meat he uses for the protein in that recipe.

I cooked some pork ribs that came out last Friday that I was going to serve that sunday but our dinner plans got pushed back a week. They got an ice bath and went into the fridge and never left their vaccuum sealed bag. Will they still be safe to serve this weekend (about 10 days from finished cooking) or should I go ahead and cook something else for the dinner party? I've never really left any cooked food in the fridge for longer than a couple days so it kind of scares me to let it go that long, but logic tells me that vac-sealed and properly icebathed should be okay.

I've been wondering about the ice bath thing. If I pan-fry some chicken and the leftovers get plastic wrap over the plate and stuck in the refrigerator, they're still good for a day or two. Why is quick chilling so important for food that's vacuum-sealed and pasteurized?

You want to cool the inside as fast as possible to a temperature where bacteria do not grow and ice water is as cold as it gets and transfers the cold quickly. Even pasteurized food may have bacteria left.

Yeah it's because pasteurization isn't 100% bacterial elimination, so you still worry about danger zone time. it already spent time there getting up to temp, it will have to spend time there getting back up to temp. Danger zone is a cumulative thing, so minimize it where you can.

No doubt, just wondering why it's such a big thing with sous-vide when I wouldn't think twice about reheating and eating leftovers that had sat on the table all through dinner two nights ago. That's got to be far less sanitary, right?

True but you tend to heat traditional food higher which kills of more bacteria in the first place. But from a food safety perspective, I imagine reheating a meal that sat at room temperature for an hour then went in tue fridge for a night probably is just as questionable. But what does not kill us... right?

I don't really see the point of sv tripe. It's tough as rubber tires if you undercook it so I would probably slow cook it.

As much as I liked Kenji's article on sous-vide pork shoulder, it seemed like a lot of trouble for something that comes out great in the oven. So I decided to spend all that effort on sous vide lamb shoulder instead. I have a shoulder cooking at 57C (135F), I'm just hesitating duration-wise between 24 or 48 hours (or maybe even 72). Since lamb temperatures are lower than pork, in order to get tender and rare meat, it sounds like I should err on the side of a longer duration.

It looks like the bag is a ziploc sort of closure and there's either a sealer valve or it punctures a spot to vacuum and seals it over.

I finally got around to making some burgs last night in the SV; made four, ate one, was mighty pleased with the results. What's the best quick way to reheat the others as I wanna chow down? I'm told defrosting in the microwave out of the vacuum bag then searing works fine but I haven't tried it yet.

Tripe kinda always leaves your kitchen smelling like a barn. Also, I think we're getting mixed up between tripe (stomach lining) and tripas (intestine). It's an unfortunate tricky false cognate.

help me goons, you're my only hope I have lamb breast in my puddle machine. all of the internet says sousvide for 20h at 60 deg c. I only have 3 hours. I want this to work. current plan is to do it 3 hours at 75c, throw it on the grill, and see what happens. any advice? should I go higher still? 80c?

crosspost but, it worked out 3 hours @ 75c + 30 minutes slow charrin + glazin on the grill. sliced it thin on the bias like I would skirt steak, and it was plenty tender. not falling apart or anything, but "fork tender" I guess. v. tasty.

Been lurking GWS for a while and figured I could get better help here than a support forum.So I just picked up an Anova Precision Cooker (the $199 model with wifi and bluetooth). Everything I have read about it suggests that I can monitor the device when I am not at home(on cellular data). I can connect to it via my wifi and bluetooth and configure it but when I turn those off on my Iphone 6+ it doesnt see the Anova. Any suggestions?

Lamb shoulder turned out deliciously soft, though maybe a bit more medium than rare for my liking. Finished searing it on the grill. I don't know if that's just a property of lamb shoulder, but it felt closer to corned beef than the pork shoulder I'm used to. I'll try 55°C instead of 57°C if I do this again.

You're not connecting directly to the Anova. You connect the Anova to your Wi-Fi network and that way it's transmitting to the Internet (via Anova servers). You should then be able to connect to it from your phone any time you have access to the Internet (via the app). Sometimes it can take a minute for the app to pick up on the cooker and it takes several seconds for commands to transmit (start/pause, etc). Make sure that when you're at home, you're actually able to see it via Wi-Fi, in the app you should see a wi-fi symbol above the cooker vs. a bluetooth symbol. If all you have is bluetooth, then obviously you won't see it on the internet.
