Chuck steak in Dorkfood,needs times please
« Reply #-1 on: June 04, 2014, 10:55:19 PM »
OK,its about 1.5 inches thick,zero degrees from freezer.Times and temp needed from Gurus,I like rare.Its a tough looking steak so this should be telling.

Thanks folks!

I was hoping more like 2 hours?I defrosted it in microwave. Any chance,or is that for toughness?

Temp set at 135,if it has to stay overnight I'll figure something else for dinner :(

Chuck roast has more fat and connective tissue so 24 hours to 36 hours should do.

Some people go 48 hours.

You will be very pleased with the results however ;)

Spuds , it depends on what you're cooking, a ribeye, NY strip or a similar tender steak is fine to cook 1-2 hr.
A piece of chuck if you want it to be tender at least overnite.

15 oz steak,3 ounces juice came out.This came out a 3/4 inch steak when I measured.My eyeballs are poor measure sticks Ive found.This was originally bought for hamburger grind so perfect for a sous vide test.

Did sear and a torch,sear was better in this application,can see torch for uneven cuts.Not real juicy,but not dry

Dang tender for chuck,not ribeye though...

Put in refrigerator with juices,making a sour cream,horseradish dip.Yes,Its soaking those juices right back up.

Back in a couple hours with pics.Bottom line,thats a good chuck steak.

Spuds - it looks like that you made a fine meal! If you have an electric meat slicer....I would love to see that sliced uber thin and turned into Philly cheese steak sammies!
