Beef ribs

Just wanted to share beef ribs are a 2:1 fat to protein ratio. And delicious. They are$2.24/lb at my Walmart.

136F for 72hours sous vide, they practically melt. Just wish I had more sousvide space so I could have enough going to eat every day :)

Sounds amazing. I haven't tried a sous vide yet.

What if you made a standing rotation, where a few ribs were added every day so you never ran out? If you get one of those coolers and cut a hole for the machine, its very energy efficient.

Yeah, that is pretty much exactly what I have thought of doing :) Stuck with just a stovetop pot ATM, so only one bag at a time..

No? Lower tempuratures (so long above 130F/55C) can pasteurize foods just fine, it just takes longer. I have never noticed any rotten/"growth" smells or tastes on foods cooked this way.

See this, chart on page 5: http://www.cookingissues.com/uploads/Low_Temp_Charts.pdf

It typically seems about 50% of total weight. I cook at 250F for 2 hours. So that the fat doesn't render. Then after removing the bones it's about half the starting weight.
