Does anyone else tune out as soon as you read Sous Vide? (SV)
I know, I know...I'm ignorant to the benefits. I get that...
...but I have to tell you, every time I read a thread here and someone mentions SV you might as well be typing, "and then my yoga instructor told me... " NEXT!
I'm on to the next thread.

My yoga instructor told me that a SV has lots of benefits. She also sold me some magic crystals that have changed my life. I'm even thinking about going vegan based on her advice.1 large BGE, Spartanburg SC

Hey ~ I'm dating a yoga instructor. Really.I've slow smoked and eaten so much pork, I'm legally recognized as being part swine - Chatsworth Ca.

I'm married to a Yoga instructor. Really, no joke.They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

I am a yoga instructor. Big joke.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

I love the SV threads. I also do yoga, running and golf 2-4 time a week just so I can fat out on the egg.Hermosa Beach CA

Yes! I am sure it is amazing, but I like cooking on the Egg and all the wonders it can produce. I have a hot tub if I really need to warm up the meat before hand.Southlake, TX and Cowhouse Creek - King, TX. 2 Large, 1 Small and a lot of Eggcessories. -
I was like this at one time, back in the day. And then I bought an Anova and HOLY SH!T"I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

By the way, one of the best meals I've had recently consisted of spares I started with the SV, cooled, and then smoked for an hour on the Egg.

I've only done it a couple of times, the poor man's version with a cheap cooler. Planning to get a "real" SV device soon. I do NOT tune out when I see a SV thread.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I've never questioned anyone's methods for prepping food. I could care less if you make it in the microwave, if it looks and tastes good I'm all over it.I raise my kids, cook and golf. When work gets in the way I'm pissed, I'm pissed off 48 weeks a year.Inbetween Iowa and Colorado, not close to anything remotely entertaining outside of football season.

I had never heard of sous vid before I started hanging out here and spending money on stuff I never knew existed that makes food incredible...Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

Those look great...what temp was the water an for how long?Making the neighbors jealous in Pleasant Hill, Ia one cook at a time... -
Love the humor, good responses, thanks. One of the great things about this forum, is nobody takes themselves toooooo seriously.
And yes, what was I thinking mentioning Yoga?!?... the recent yoga pants trend alone is reason enough to stop by and give a donation to the nearest studio!
And no, I don't question that SV yields great results, just being honest and seeing how others browse the forum. NEXT!
