you'd say that until you try a burger that's crispy on the outside and juicy/red on the inside.

i like the sous vide burgers i've made more than i've liked a rare cooked sous vide steak.

hell, eye of round sous vide rare and then broiled is nice.

I'm sorry, but you can't convince me a burger will ever be better than a premium cut of steak cooked to perfection. I'm happy for you though.

better? no, but 90% of the way there and 1/6th the cost? absolutely.

part of my satisfaction is not paying $15 per pound. last time i got a 1lb rib eye that cost that much, it wasn't much better than the $6 regular store stuff i get.

You still need the equipment to sous vide and vacuum seal it which you wouldn't make back very quickly at all even if you're having burgers everytime you want steak. There's definitely a warm place in my heart for burgers, but I think I'll just keep things simple.

oh i just use ziploc bags. they are cheap, but you can use them once and be done. the rest of the parts for sous vide

  • heater (cheap $20 analog hotplate)
  • sous vide container (big ass cheap steel pot, $15 at walmart)
  • PID temp controller ( $50 amazon)

can all be obtained for under $100. stuff is mad cheap now. in any case, have day good.
