CatfishKev Report post Posted October 31, 2019 Well this is my first attempt at this... Got a backstrap portion and some sirloin steaks. Cold smoked an hour then low smoked on pellet grill one hour. Seasoned with salt pepper and garlic. Sous vide 3 hours at 135. We will see how it turns out. Good or bad I will report. Planning on making some au jus with the bag juice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muledeerarea33? Report post Posted October 31, 2019 Looks good. If it floats or gets too close the the wand just throw some big metal spoons on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmoto Report post Posted November 1, 2019 Hot hot sear once you pull it out of the bag. Just be sure to pat dry first. What I've learned to do is start a chimney half full of coals, wait until they grey over slightly. Put a BBQ grate over the chimney, then sear. Maybe 30 seconds a side.

CatfishKev Report post Posted November 1, 2019 Well the back strap came out great! Perfectly tender and medium rare it was delicious. Unfortunately when searing the sirloin I had the pellet grill set to high and all the residual grease in there ignited and the sirloin all got over cooked. They were still good though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted November 4, 2019 Tried again on steaks tonight and it was awesome! Pretty much the same meal we did the other night. Invited mom over to have some. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
