Mock tender roast
« Reply #-1 on: July 10, 2014, 10:35:50 PM »
Bought something called a "mock tender roast" (no idea what the heck that is) cause it was on sale.

Here it is unwrapped.


Removed some of the silver skin and added some pepper, salt, garlic.


Bagged and ready to go into the pool at 140*


See you in about 48 hours.
Why couldn't Noah have swatted the 2 mosquitoes?.

That is also known as chuck steak. A very tough cut. Should be good made Sous Vide!

No idea how to cook it that way, but it would make some nice smoked pepper stout beef.

I think so. I like the texture I get with short ribs at 50 hours at 135F so 48 hours will be a good test range.

After 48 hrs, I took the roast out. Here it is out of the pouch and before searing.


Full plate with sliced roast, roasted potatoes, roasted asparagus and gravy.


The roast was great. Very tender, moist, and melt in your mouth.
I'm really getting into this - now I have to pick what is next.

Wow, that looks good - will definitely need to try a tough roast one of these days - sounds perfect for sous vide!

Maybe just a little more spices before I vac seal. I have been intentionally using small amounts of spices and gradually increasing with each cook.
