I discovered sous vide about a year ago. I got a sous vide machine and a small vacuum sealer on Black Friday.

We absolutely love both! It’s perfect for reheating leftovers. My wife and I both love to cook, but since we’re the only ones eating, we don’t want to eat the same thing every night. Now we can try new recipes and save leftovers for a week or month.

We used to hate throwing out leftover Mac and cheese, chili, pulled pork, ribs, vegetables, etc. from football or birthday parties. My chili reheated in the sous vide is just as good as it was when it came out of the pot. No more microwave scorching or sauce pot reheated dried-out chili.

A vacuum sealer is perfect for us. We’ll now freeze even a few cups of leftover chili, Mac, lasagna, sausage, etc. and put them all in the sous vide. When guests arrive, we just slice open the hot bags and we have another smaller smorgasbord.

I’m going to copy Collie1218’s recipe and try the steak. I’ve heard lots of people rave about it and it seems pretty easy to make.
