SV pork shoulder Steak
« Reply #-1 on: June 24, 2015, 07:15:43 PM »
Seasoned with salt and rubbed with ghee and herbs paste. Sealed and into a 140 degrees hot tub time machine for about 20 hours. I don't really set the time, I just take food out when I'm ready to eat.


Straight out of the bag. I chilled it completely and cut it in half.



Got the grill going, I tossed a chunk of orange wood. Placed the pig on the opposite side while the grill got nice and hot. THEN commence the assault....



Ready to slice



Put together a quick lentil salad. That was one juice pig. The chilling really forced the smoke to adhere to the pig. Fantastic!



Look at the color, a tiny smoke ring.

Long live sous vide cooking!

I'm going to do a whole shoulder for 48 hours. Then cut into steaks for the freezer

It's one of the best pork shoulder that I've had the pleasure of stuffing my facehole with.
Don't skip the chilling stage. It is the key to the smokey flavor if you plan on finishing on the grill. Why wouldn't you finish it on the grill?

Your freezer might be too small - I have one for the extra if you need... (in the words of Backyard Jack - "Just sayin'")

That is good learning - thank you!

You won't regret it. I don't see myself messing with pork chops anytime soon. I'll probably do that as well.

Might even go all in and brine it too!

Do a dry brine if you are doing a 48 hour swim.
Spread it out, hit with salt, fold, tie and seal?

That looks amazing!

Question, and this might be a sous vide question:  For shoulders/butts we usually say 195-205F as a ball park pulling temp, is there a reason for keeping it at 140 for so long?
