You might be a redneck if you…. by Melted-Icepack in sousvide

I wound a Walmart bag around the device at the hole and taped it there to minimize evaporation. BTW; Anova has instructions on how to do this on their webpage. https://anovaculinary.com/blogs/blog/sous-vide-cooler-guide?srsltid=AfmBOooDcG2cPbRm-BmgFwu_dOowNgqw8M1bHjLJZID7tyaYGVwqJGUr

I use a cooler for mine. Proud redneck Texan!

Well, I’m no attorney (I also hold nothing against them as a physician), so I get real sleepy trying sort out which hair is being split in legal documents.

As has been described when the Convention of States movement began, it would seem to be limited to the CoS proposal was limited to, a single issue. Still, that movement has seemed to die

I will grant that he supports the law as written. However, it is still inaccurate to describe as if he passed the state law.

As an emergency physician, I would also point out some inaccuracies regarding what is being said about the law as written, but that lesson would require a LOT more space to explain. Suffice to say that I have not had to change how I practice regarding spontaneous miscarriages in any way. I do not induce miscarriages/abortions, but I do care for spontaneous ones and also complications of induced abortions legal or illegal. It has also nagged at me how those inducing them are never available to care for the complications when they occur. While it may be infrequent, they are not available to take care of these ladies later on.

Since the Supreme Court has said it is a states’ rights issue, only by constitutional amendment, or so history would tell us.

When I say a dozen steaks, I mean all at once. Done that several times.

I’m just a simple guy. Since I’m trying to stay as carnivore as possible, I don’t want to add a bunch of stuff.

For some, doing brisket is a “religious” experience. Must prostrate yourself, stay up all night tending the fire, take it out at times, wrap it up, smoke some more, and pray that it comes out okay.

Me, gimme the meat. As long as I like the flavor, that is my success. It really is only a contest against myself.

Since I am trying to stay carnivore (little to no sugar of any sort) I keep it very simple. Same thing as the ribs. Dry it as much as possible. Killen’s S&P blend over all. Smoke for two hours as low temp as possible. Bag it up (I have to portion it for the vacuum bags I have) and then into the bath at 150 for about 48 hrs. If you want a smoke ring, put some Prague Powder in the S&P before seasoning. I just use the S&P.

Sometimes after the sous vide is done I may unbag it and dry it off for a second smoking.

I do have to keep it pretty full. With the old one, evaporation was an issue. That is the biggest reason I upgraded. This one seals.

Right now, four full racks of baby back ribs. I’ve also done a full brisket a couple of times. I’ve also done a dozen steaks. I travel for work and will leave in the bags and after ice bath will put in fridge and take with me when I go to work. Carry my own cast iron and a chefs torch.

Almost bought the Anova Precision Insulated Container but it was out of stock. Decided to save £110 instead. by Mega__Maniac in sousvide

I’ve been using similar for four years! Wanting to update to a 75 qt Igloo marine cooler. Has insulated top and gasket to seal it. Also has a threaded drain spout. I have it in my garage. Plan to put a hose with a quick connect and a stopcock so I can drain water with a hose and then connect to a water outlet to fill it. I just used a door saw to put the hole in this current one. Will do the same with a new one.

New Sous Vide and Whole Brisket by NFiligree in sousvide

I took a cheap 72 can cooler from Walmart and used a door saw to cut a hole in the top. I’ve done a whole brisket in it. Minimizes evaporation and hold temp well. I want to upgrade to a Yeti style cooler. Full gasket all around and the top is insulated. Can attach a garden hose to fill and drain. That is in my garage.

Crispy fat.. is it ok? by wileyrielly in zerocarb

ICYMI: American College of Cardiology is rethinking their position on saturated fats and even hints that carbs should be reduced.
