So I would also have to buy a a pellet grill but after grilling for a couple of minutes each side the temp of the steak would go up quite a bit I would think. Am I missing something? |

When you cook it sous vide you are cooking to the internal temp you want your steak at and are only throwing it on for the sear. You could use a cast iron griddle or pan and get it screaming hot on the broiler/your grill before tossing the steak on and then flipping...but if you have a seer box or pellet grill that gets those higher heats, it is just easier to do that way. We like med rare, and can grill it that way, but with sous vide cooking, you get it med rare thru the entire steak. While it rests, throw on a little blue cheese crumbles to let melt before you serve...heavenly! Sous Vide Medium-Rare Steak |

Made the T Bone for dinner
I do not have an oven that broils at a high enough temp but made the best of it by heating up the pan before putting in the steak. Was reasonably tender but will admit a steakhouse will do a better job. Also bought a porterhouse that is happily resting in our freezer and will give that a try down the road. Might buy an actual prime steak down the road and see how that works |

We tried it twice and the meat was NOT good. We are still looking for a good butcher/meat shop.

I took advantage of their 5/$20 or 4/$20 or whatever it is/was, last year. I didn't even think to look at the fat, I saw ground chuck and just assumed it was 80%, or close to it. Turns out it was very fatty - more like 75%. And each package was just slightly under a pound so I paid a premium price for meat that lost around 20% of its content in the cooking.
That said, they made really awesome meatballs. I don't use a "meat mix" of veal pork and beef, I use only beef. They came out light and flavorful. I'd probably use this meat for hamburgers as well. I made a meatloaf with one package and it fell apart - just too fatty to hold together. Tasty - but messy. I think I'd go back again and pick up some ground round some time, but not til the prices go down. |

The meat is supposed to be all grass fed, free range meat. If you want bland, then pay double at a chain grocery store. Your choice. I go there for the price in today's inflation. I can prepare and serve venison in a manner that you will almost forget about a beef steak, so preparing a piece of beef, regardless of condition is an easy task. No matter where I get my steak, I salt it ahead of time to make it "more" tender. I also bring it to room temp before cooking. Most of the time I cook it in a cast iron pan, so that I can get a really good sear on it. Unlike those on here that can afford Wagyu beef, I am on a limited income and still like a ribeye when inflation is not robbing me of my ability. When it comes to hamburger for patties, I prefer a fatty mix so that I get the great taste of some of the decent burger joints. I like a good smash burger.
I get my steaks now, at Best Meats because no one can beat their specials for $6.99Lb. I shopped at Walmart yesterday and their ribeyes were $12.99Lb. I remember when Publix advertised ribeye for $9.99Lb just a little over a year ago. Last time I checked, it was almost double that. It does not bother me when some on here talk down Best Meats because I don't like a crowd picking over a product when I shop. I just wish they would get some Bison in. The last two times I was there, they did not have any. If you want a real treat, try some Bison. A bit expensive, but it's good. |
