Gonna make a rib roast tomorrow. A plan to do dinner was concocted this afternoon, so I went off to find a roast. Best one I could find an hour before the local grocer closed doesn't look too promising; not much fat and it's off the loin end. I don't have high hopes.
SV steaks came out amazing. Tried to sear them on my grill at 600 degrees but it wasn't searing very well and I was afraid to overcook, so they came inside and went on the cast iron. Sucks that I can only do one at a time, but the crust formed quick and easy. Kind of scared my smoke alarms didn't go off though, going to go test those things
Finally got my Anova and i am feeling like a kid on Christmas. Due to bad planning on my part i am far from a butcher during the holidays so my only option will probably be vacuum sealed meat.
What do you think about putting the whole prepacked sirloin steak
i'm on a twice baked potato kick lately, personally
Presuming a good scrub on skins pre cooking, and then rub salt, pepper and olive oil on the outside before putting in oven? Skewer thru each potato can help the inside cook a bit faster too, but not necessary
Didn't seem like my Costco was selling any prime grade roasts. Maybe they just sold out seeing as I was there on Xmas Eve though? Plenty of prime steaks to select from though.
The choice selections were pretty small and boneless too
Ended up getting one of their pre-seasoned choice roasts because those were a bit bigger than the unseasoned and also bone-in. It's at 100f right now, so should be ready in another couple hours. Excite!
Did anyone notice he seared the steak before sous viding? I don't recall hearing of this technique.

Was inspired by seeing what the Japanese teppanyaki chefs did with the extra fat and trimmings.
In case you don't know, the best trick for any fried rice is to use day old rice. You cook rice and leave it for a day to totally air dry. The measure of epic fried rice from teppanyaki places is if each grain of rice is individual and not clumped up from the starch moist starch when frying it.
