Sous vide does do a great job at warming up vac packed meet. Whole packer brisket is a tricky thing to get good at. Especially if your cooking choice or select grades. I did a smoke/sous vide Choice Brisket for the 4th of July and it turned out better than anything previous I had attempted. I...
So with sous vide its not an active process where you sit around and watch it/ monitor it. You just say hey I wanna eat in 8 hours so I am gonna pull my already packaged and seasoned meat out the freezer and drop it in the water bath. Then 30 minutes before meal time you start the grill and sear...
You should give sous vide a whirl. I got into it a few years ago and it has been life changing. You can buy dirt cheap London broil and with almost no effort turn it into one of the best slices of beef you have ever eaten.
Alton Brown does a good job of explaining it in this episode...

I will be testing with a different probe...

I think the issue I have is the heater meter isnt shutting down fast enough when it reaches set temp. It eventually shuts down completely, but the temperature continues to rise and then has to settle back down. If I set it to say 210 and then wait for it to over shoot to around 220-230 and then...
Hello Everyone,
I have been looking for some guidance when it comes to adjusting the PID on my Heatermeter. I have found these instructions : https://github.com/CapnBry/HeaterMeter/wiki/PID-Tuning
I have made several adjustments, but I still cannot seem to get my pit to not overshoot after...
