I know guys who spent three hundred bucks on the really good sealer from cabelas, but my eighty dollar food saver from wal-mart is fine.

Well, let's see if this works...
3 pack of whole chickens from Costco, spatchcocked, marinated, vac sealed, deep freezer
Tossed it in the bath at 135F a little too late for dinner Monday (hangery woman wasn't having it) pulled it out 2.5hrs later, ice bath, fridge... had a dinner last night so couldn't eat it..
Then today, pulled it out, dried it off, fresh "rub" with some honey and olive oil too, now it's over direct heat with some black cherry wood

$70.00 U.S. Decent price!
Does not appear to have wifi or bluetooth, but I could be wrong.

Started using SV to speed up my BBQ work. Chicken is so moist and tender. Everyone's been complimenting me on my wings.

Saw a roast on sale last week. Bought it, sealed it with some Montreal spice and mustard powder and have it in the anova now for tomorrow's supper. Was planning on finishing it in the smoker to impart some smoke flavour.
Thoughts?

Steak spice is super powerful flavour wise when you sous vide, so much penetration
If you wanted smoke and perhaps a ring, you would of been better off smoking first, setting it up at the end on the smoker could give you a nice bark, but it's not going to absorb much flavour
If you go to finish it off on the smoker, I'd toss it in an ice bath and fridge for 12hrs first, let those juices absorb back in, then smoke till the internal temp is just warm enough for serving... probably 120ish?
Yeah, agree it isn't going get much penetration. I'm mostly going for exterior texture, which is my main gripe with sous vide.
I could also have easily just smoked the roast without the sous vide. Just need something more forgiving that accommodates my work and family schedules. At least with the anova I can set it up and then take off whenever I have time.

Yeah I'd be worried about over cooking and drying out if you don't cool it before hand if you want to finish with low temps... it works well but it's very time consuming and you'll need probably at least 45min on the smoker depending on how thick the roast is. Best bet is just to put the oven on broil, can re-rub it and finish it off probably 5min per side
Well, ended up with plenty of smoke flavour, but as you predicted it was a bit overdone. I cooled it completely in an ice water bath for two hours before the smoke, but out it into the smoker too early.
End result was a bit dry. But leftovers will make excellent chili I'm sure.

What kind of birdhouse can you build with popsicles, roofies, and a rubber mallet?

perfect. Costco run on Monday! Holiday is coming up and definitely need more.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
On a similar note, anyone use the "tupperware" container thing yet? Does it work well...?
Tupperware deforms at higher temps, ie for chicken. Almost had a massive spill from it, lucky I checked before going to bed. Switched to a cooler, dremelled a hole on the top, works perfectly.

Oh was talking about the tupperware thingy that came in the kit. Where you can vacuum air out of.
I had a plastic cambro so I just cut a hole at the top and used that. Perfect for long sous vide items like yogurt.
You should try and go tomorrow, the deal ends on Oct 29th.
