I have a rump roast in the freezer that I want to try and sous vide. Has anyone tried it before? How did it come out? How many hours? The plan is to go 24 hrs @ 135 degrees. Not sure if I need to go longer than 24 hrs. Thanks.

I would not go longer than 24 hours, it might end up being meat mush. I did my last one at 150 degrees for 8 hours.

It came out great. Firm and tender end result. I prefer roasts to be medium well, which might just be because that's how Grandma cooked it. I also think 8 hours is more convenient because you can dry brine overnight in the fridge and drop it in the water bath in the morning to be ready by dinner.

Also, you can make an amazing gravy from the sous vide drippings.

After removing the meat, drop the liquid into a skillet on high heat. You're looking to bring it almost dry. Once most of the liquid is evaporated it will start to darken quickly. Once the color is to your preference, deglaze and dilute to preferred thickness.

That Alton Brown recipe looks great, but he has you sear and then sous vide. Never seen it done backwards.

I saw and wondered that as well. I have seen people smoke something before SV but thats a little different. Maybe the seared first gives a different flavor?

Thanks. I'll prob go 10-12 hrs instead of the 24 and sear after.

I did a sous vide chuck roast at 145 for 24 hours, hit in an ice bath for 5 minutes, take out the pack and seared it on my blackstone for a couple minutes on each side. I've done it twice and it was great both times.
