When I think of slow cooking, I think crock-pot. I thought I could not afford sous vide cooking.

The Anova Precision Cooker is the world’s top-selling sous vide machine. It’s amazingly easy to set up with outstanding results. If you have a pot, a ziplock bag, and a pan, you’ll cook the best food of your life. Period. $109

This is a game changer. You just set the temperature you want, stick it in the water in a bag, and forget about it. You can't overcook anything it holds it at the exact temp.


Has anyone cooked this way? the restaurants do
While it seems that this is probably the best way to cook vacuum-packed food, a big negative for me personally is...

Since the water never goes past the desired temperature of doneness, the meat takes significantly longer to cook (A 12 oz. NY strip takes a little over two hours)...
