Why 72 hours?
robert.c.brown15
So why only 72 hours for short ribs? I assume Modernist cuisine or chefsteps attempted longer times and didn't notice any difference. Any attempts at 2 to 4 week sous vide cooks? Waste of time/product? I have heard of 100 hour oxtail. That is the longest cook time I've heard of. Just curious...

I think Chris mentioned it, it wasn't really improving anything, I 've just done the oxtail 72

I thought you did it? I guess not. What kind of diminishing returns? Dry meat?

I think it was mentioned before that it becomes diminishing return on investment going past those times on certain cuts.
The 100h oxtail is something I have been wanting to try
