Pro tip. You can leave the room and do other stuff while they are in the water bath. It’s not going to boil over. I’ve dropped steaks before coin toss, then sear and served them at halftime.


I actually brought my SV equipment to work on a construction site in GA last year. It was convenient because we only had a small grill and we could grill off 2-3 steaks at a time real quick and everyone was served in a much more timely manner

Bagged everything the night before at the hotel


Then put in the bath at work. Actually worked out really well since we didn't have running water on site.

So general question regarding the searing. I've always struggled with getting my pan to the right temperature.

I always see people say get the pan as hot as you can. So I do that, turn the burner all the way up, and it burns the steak almost instantly when I put it on.

I know every stove top is a little different, but is there an actual setting most people use as far as temperature settings?

What's in the pan? How long do you sear?

The pan is hot enough when it begins to smoke. Put some olive or vegetable oil in the pan to coat the bottom.

Personal opinion - ribeyes are better with sear then oven , thirty second constant flip technique or over an open flame.

Usually vegetable oil. I don't sear long. The time i'm searing isn't usually the issue. I've usually gotten the pan so hot it starts burning almost instantly when I put it in the pan.

Maybe i'm adding the oil in too early or something?

I usually put mine at 7/10 temp, and let it come up to temperature. I find that is the best temp on my stove top to keep the steak from burning, and still sear appropriately.

To the OP, I usually salt and pepper the steak and throw a couple sprigs of rosemary in the bag. Cook at 129 for 1.5-2 hours, then dry the steak off, add a bit more salt, and sear one side of the steak in safflower oil, when I flip it, I throw some butter in the pan along with crush garlic cloves and more rosemary. I baste the steak in the butter while searing on the second side, and flip when it’s done to baste on the other side.

It’s pretty much ruined me on eating steaks at restaurants.

The Guga foods channel is pretty good as well

I want to try the burger sauce he made in the smashburger episode. Curious about that hot sauce.

Yeah I follow both of his channels. I've learned a lot for him. I like that he shows his mess ups for what not to do.

Yeah there is a lot of trial and error on the channel so you don't have to make the same mistakes he did
