    I found it to be an excellent resource. The cooking charts from Polyscience and Sous Vide Supreme were helpful starting points. There doesn't seem to be much consensus re: SV cook times and temps, which leaves plenty of room for experimentation.

    well, couldn't find the ribeye I thought I had in the freezer but I did find two prime fillets. Put some DP Red Eye and butter in the bag and vac sealed. Set it at 134* and let it go for almost 5 hours from frozen(came home for lunch and threw them in). Then seared on CI. Really good and really easy. Didn't think to take pics till after I started inhaling it.imageimage

    @SmokeyPitt‌ Sorry it took so long to get back....it's been a crazy week! I tend to go with Heston Blumenthal's recipe. http://svkitchen.com/?p=4235 Try it...you will not be disappointed. And then venture out. Enjoy. Repeat. :)
