Grabbed four frozen Flat Iron Steaks out of the chest freezer. Crock pot filled with room temperature water and steaks dropped in frozen. Dorkfood DSV set to 131F and air bubbler to stimulate water movement is on. I love how easy it is to use my DSV to make an outstanding meal. No prep is needed and the cooking times are so flexible. And to be able to take a tough cut of meat and create such a tender and delicious piece of meat when finished is so worth the small investment for a Sous Vide controller like the DSV ;)
Going to give them 8 hours then high temp sear on the Uuni 2 for the finish. Should make for a good dinner! In the pool they go...

Kitchen knife works great as a way to weigh them down a little bit..

how do you know when it's done? I know that beef cooks at 120-145 or so but when you cook chicken and you only cooking at 130 or so and your suppose to take chicken up to 160? to you get the extra degrees cooking when you sear the sous vide food?

Sparky you cook to your serving temperature. Whatever your target internal temperature would be that is where you set it. I have these set to 131F because when I sear them they will end up being nice and medium rare.

Gonna be some good eats!

Waiting to see how this turns out.

Spark their is a time / temp kill curve, at 165F bad bugs killed almost instantly @ 140 F may take 90 min.
Sous vide is safe because the temp throughout the meat is high enough long enough.

Looking forward to the finished product.

Are they ready yet?

Yes they are done Pappy!

The steaks look great and yes it's unbelievable what SV can do to any cut of meat. I'll never regret my purchase of a sous vide it was well worth it.
