Joule and travel question...

Mark_Falge_417413

I’ll start with – love the Joule!

My wife and I are heading to a fondue thang on Saturday. We’ve been asked to bring steak bits.

My question is: What is the best way to prepare a sous vide steak considering time and travel (30 mins)? Can we sous vide, travel then sear?

Thanks!

easily. You can cook the night prior and chill in ice bath. If you're only traveling 30min, unlikely much damage to be done. Can rewarm and sear upon arrival. depending on the "bits" you may be able to do them start to finish upon arrival.

We’ll have time to do whatever prep we need to do just before we leave. Is it safe to pull the steak right out of the bath and transfer then sear? Actually, you bring up a good point about cut up, sear then sous vide on location. Any suggestion on sous vide cooking time and temp if I go this way – maybe ½ to 1 inch chunks? If time is negligible then I’d be happy to show off the Joule on location.

small chunks so about 30min should be fine. If you sear whole before cutting and cooking, it will be easier for the final sear (less turning).

YES WE CAN ;-) , go pro: use pressure cooker for travel, 1. pre sear 2x25 secs each side of the steaks in ultra hot pan and park steaks on a cold plate , 2. lower heat, add butter garlic thyme and Rosmary to pan, add steaks for a couple seconds each side, 3. park again on cold plate, 4. take pan off heat, 5. add steak and leftover fat plus herbs and garlic to vac bag, 6. vacuum seal. 7. cool down in ICE Bath for 20 minutes, 8. park in fridge 3-4 degrees Celsius one day ahead, 9. day of travel: throw vac bag steaks in pressure cooker, add cold water until 80 % of pressure cooker is filled up, leave enough space for joule, 10. take steaks out of pot back into fridge (u calculated the right amount of water for pot) heat pressure cooker with joule to 58 Celsius degrees, 11. throw in steaks and let cook for 30 minutes by 58 degrees, 12. take joule out of pressure cooker, leave steaks inside, cover with pressure cooker led and bring to your car. Depending on size of pressure cooker and pre heated car, ur steaks plus water should drop down in 30 minutes drive from 58 to 55 Celsius. Medium rare temperature, 13. you can add joule again at your party destination to the pressure cooker and hold between 55 to 58 degrees until ready to sear without fear and serve. ;-) or just serve in the minute u fall in to doors. Crazy amazing Sousvide.- go pro yo.

"and faster plus induktion heat" is not recommended as it will void the warranty, and potentially damage Joule.

According to Emmet Barton, employee of ChefSteps, use of an induction cooktop with a Joule will void the warranty and may damage the Joule. https://www.chefsteps.com/forum/posts/induction-cooktop-withjoule-a-melty-fiery-mess
