Robust meats: thick cut steaks, lamb, etc. also great for scallops and white fish. Also try asparagus...

Find some good sous vide recipes online, they’re typically really simple, like “steak, butter, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper.” Slow cook according to the directions, then sear in a pan for some maillard and texture

Great. Mostly stuff my wife is not eating currently.

Well you can do basically anything in there. I've had melons and other fruits, chicken, squash, lots more.
But there's diminishing returns with a lot of this stuff. I find the best application is for things that either A) require a low, slow cook to make tender, or B) lose a lot of flavor when cooked in water (like the asparagus)

Sounds like a lot of work, trag.

Outside of a few specific items, this is my general take on sous vide as well.

It's really great for lamb.

Also swordfish.

i went a bit ape shit buying kitchen stuff at Home Goods yesterday

guys, sous vide is about as hands off as you get. it’s a pot of water and a freaking plastic bag for God’s sake. I bought one two months ago and it’s a game changer. you literally cannot overcook anything. the one I have is all controlled through my phone. outside of searing meat, the cleanup consists of dumping the water and throwing away the plastic bag. I’ve cooked pork butt, steak, turkey breasts, fish and chicken for tacos, pork loin, and a prime rib.

I’ve used them a lot. “Hands off” is a perfect way to describe it...And therein lies the problem for me, to a certain extent.

just wait until you both have 15 balls in the air and a screaming kid in the background. that hands off will come in handy.

Touché

i love my new stove so much...

i forgot. did you get the griddle or the extra burners (or the grill)?

and is it duel range?

36 inch griddle in the middle..i wanted the 6 burner but you know...

You have the same stove we have.

Let me know when you use your griddle and how many times you season it.

i don't plan on using the griddle to be honest..i guess you don't season yours with peanut oil like they suggest, eh?

I’ve owned mine for 4 years. I’ve never used the griddle.

yeah, i don't know when i'm ever going to use it..i tried to argue but to no avail..twice a year i'll probably have to clean up pancake batter

You never answered my question about whether yours is dual range.
