I tried sous-vide with my thermie tonight!

Buttercups did you seal two steaks or just one? Where they scotch fillet?

[Buttercups]

Judy after all I've learnt here it's great to be able to share something with you all!

Yvette I thought it was eye fillet, however my DH who actually got it out of the freezer said it was prime rib fillet which he had vacuum sealed into 2 separate little bags. We could have done it in the one bag but it didn't fit in the basket too well.

Now that I know it wasn't eye fillet I'm evey more impressed!  I'm thinking that I'll try a citrussy chicken next for a salad - I'll definitely take photo's of the next efforts.  It really was so easy

Thanks Buttercups I love a nice steak but am disappointed sometimes there is just no flavour. Do you have to put them in the basket? I was just thinking if you wanted to cook 3 or 4 steaks they wouldn't fit.

Hi Yvette, I'm thinking that you could try it on reverse speed, you are right about not getting 4 steaks in the basket.

I'd be worried without the basket that the vacuum sealed package might get caught on a blade and tear, that would kind of ruin it.  Even on reverse it would be very full and thus more likely for a package to get caught - and those blades are sharp!

Yes true Buttercups there is usually always three to four of us I might try 3 and see if it works, otherwise we need 2 TM's for more haha I wish
