I don't have a sous vide machine, but that seems like a very large piece of meat to sous vide. Do you "cook" it for a week?

There are actually several videos that talk about sous vide chuck roast. I did one. Just remember even with sous vide, it won't have a robust beef flavor but it will have an incredible texture....it is still a chuck roast after all.....do it.

Chuck roast only takes 6-8 hours in the crock pot to be fork tender...

Hmm how can I extend that?

A lot of people that don’t know anything about Sous vide like to hate on it on this board. Ignore them because their mommas were stupid and didn’t teach them any better.

Chuck roast Sous vide at 132 for 48 hours is pretty dang good. It is a very close approximation to prime rib for 1/4 of the price.

Salt well, vac seal, 132x48, remove from vac seal, pat dry, sear hard for 1 minute and thirty seconds per side on high heat, slice and serve with a melted compound butter.

It is very good.

ETA: if you downvote this, yo mommas a ho.

Crock pot or braised chuck roasts are always good, but if you're interested in a medium rare chuck that eats like a prime rib...



That pic is from this link and is a great place to learn about sous vide with others who are wanting to do the same. Chefsteps is another site to check out.

This. It's the people who don't understand the technique or haven't tried it who make an arse of themselves with their attempted humor.

Yes I did one about 4 weeks ago.

Salt it heavily, like where you can see the salt building up on it on both sides, let it sit for and hour on the counter. Rinse the salt off and pat it dry. Season it with salt, pepper fresh herbs and put it in a sous vide bag seal it and cook it at 135 for 24 hours. When its cooked take it out and drop it in an ice bath for 20 minutes or so. Make some aux jus out of the grav. Preheat skillet or grill and sear the roast for 5-6 minutes on each side.

I’d be interested in trying one Sous vide. However, one in the Dutch oven is hard to beat!

The final products are much different. One is a delicious pile of gravy soaked soft meat, while the other is more akin to a rib roast. Who woulda thunk different techniques create different end products?

That MS roast recipe just seems like a giant salt bomb.
I like chuck cooked with a boatload of onions and mushrooms.
