Sous vide Cote de Boeuf, seared in the MMX and a Le Pin-ish wine

Following on from the success of the last cote de boeuf, I cooked this one in the sous vide before searing over charcoal. The sous vide cooking technique, with butter added into the bag, gives a great moist texture to the finished steak. Served with chips (fries to almost everyone here), seasonal veg and a 2006 Ch. Guillot Clauzel, who are literally next door to Le Pin in Pomerol. Full technique described in this blog post:

    This time-just insert knife and twist  =).  Great cook right there.  Impressive marbling on that beef, as well.  Nailed it once again!

    Cheers bud. It was in the hot tub for four hours in total, at 140F.

    My pleasure sir! Maybe see you on Friday, given the time differential.
