These are 5 ct. I've wanted to try them for years but realized the outsides would become woefully over cooked by the time the middle was done. My new SV provided the solution: 138 for an hour. I then marinated them for an hour in garlic, olive oil and basil. I wrapped them in basil leaves and speck, then grilled over a smokin' fire on the mini for two minutes each side. They were every bit as good as I had hoped.

    They certainly make your fork look small! Plate looks wonderful. Nice work.

    Had no idea shrimp got that large!

    Love the table/counter/cutting board/whatever it is. Tiger maple I assume?

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    That shrimp looks  delicious as do the potatoes. Only thing I would change is replace the asparagus with several green onions. 

    Can an you tell I don't like asparagus?
