.....was a SMASHING success.  Oh. My. Gosh.  It is SOOOO good.  I hit it with fresh ground black pepper, pink Himalayan salt, garlic powder and onion salt on both sides, put it in a vacuum bag with a bit of butter and into the sous vide bath at 135 degrees.  Took it out 72 hours later and then...

In the three or four years that I have been smoking meats, Tri Tip is the only one I've done that........well.........sucked.  I don't remember what I did, it's been that long ago, but I remember it didn't turn out well.  At all. :( So now that I have the Anova Sous Vide unit, I am wondering if...

Yes, we pulled the trigger. Ordered an Anova Bluetooth and Wifi cooker a couple hours ago. Will be delivered today by 9pm. Next stop will be a stop at Sam's Club to pick up a chuck roast and set it for 72-96 hours. FYI, it's on sale at Amazon for $169. Questions: 1: My wife canNOT stand...

Hi there.  Smoked deviled eggs are AMAZING.......if you didn't know.  I've done them many times, but apparently haven't paid attention to something.  I just took 30 some hard boiled (baked, actually) eggs out of my MES, using my mailbox mod with an AMNPS using apple pellets and no heat at all...

Well, about 10 minutes or so ago, I put my first meat into the new 4D.  Took them out of the package from Sam's and rinsed them off, dried them, took off the membrane on the bone side and put a little Morton's Tender Quick on for 15 minutes and then rinsed them again.  Covered in yellow mustard...

What does that mean?  It means that the smoke that is coming out of my newly delivered 4D right now has the same exact smoke color my MES 40 had coming out of it when I was seasoning it..........when the chips caught fire.  I certainly hope that's not what is happening right now, but this scares...

I have been going back and forth for days on buying the 3D or the 4D or none at all. I'm even on vacation right now at 3am in my room at the Palazzo Hotel in Vegas. Went through the ordering process and handed my wife my phone and told her to press the "Place Order" button. And I'll be damned if...
