I know this is everyone's favorite topic on here.


Won the under on last nights NFL game so decided to just give in and order it. What is the first thing I should cook?

Steak? Chicken? fish? etc?
and do I need to vacuum seal everything or will a zip-lock bag do as long as I get the air out of it?

Do a steak first, but my favorite application is a thick, bone in pork chop.

Also “sous vide” is the method of cooking, not the tool. Just FYI.

The tri-tip from Sam's. It's already seasoned and in an appropriate bag. fantastic every time.

It’s not a big deal, just didn’t want you to be saying the wrong thing.

And it’s simply a precision cooker or circulator.

And yes, “sous vide” means “under vacuum” in French.

And to answer your original question, you do not have to vac seal everything, but simply use the water seal method with freezer bags.

I’d never buy one of these, but if I did I would be excited to make eggs in them.

I keep mine as close to 130 as possible-I don't have a real sous vide machine. Time really doesn't matter after a couple hours. I can't link it right now, but look for sousvideguy and tritip for what temps for your preferred doneness. He says 7 hours. I never go that long.

I’d suggest steak for your first meal!

But try this after a while:
