Sous Vide newbie question

Fay_99556

Very excited to have my new Anova Sous Vide. Cooked 2 filets this past weekend for its inauguration and my-oh-my they were amazing. Finished them with a brandy peppercorn sauce. Wow.

I'm not a professional, don't have a bank of SVs burbling away so what do I do when we have guests and there's the outlier who wants their steak medium or well done? Would extra sear time do the trick? Have the oven heated up and put it in cast iron for additional cooking. I guess I could just not invite them : )

Thanks

Thanks to both of you!

Extra sear time is the best way to go for sure. I would sear theirs even before and cook before if you have the time. If you are serving a med well to well steak, you would never know that it was seared the day before or the morning of, cooked, cooled and perfectly reheated in a water bath with the other steaks. I do have some experience seeing folks who like well done also liking extremely hot food. So maybe searing after cooking if you have the time might be better for that person.

Low temperature oven with a thermometer probe to tell the meat temperature would also work fine. Chefsteps released a little class on doing that, with lots of little pointers basically.
