Very interesting. I must admit I have never heard of cooking a steak that way. I even had to you tube it.

One of my favorite ways to cook a steak or anything for that matter.

And we're done eating! It was what I expected: the most perfectly controled meat I've ever made, slightly missing the grill flavors. 140° was a little more rare than was predicted which was ok. The torch does a great job crusting, the house smells like a steakhouse. We're satisfied especially knowing the things to adjust next time.
So the only 2 drawbacks (1) Didn't stand around the grill in my favorite spot, more like tending a smoker (2) the torch grilled it pretty good, but there was a slight sacrifice of grill flavor (and I mean slight)
Upside: you can't mess it up. Family members and guests can pretty much point to a meat color. If you get a leaner cut (nightmare on the grill) I'm willing to bet 100% you could get it all the way to medium well, still tender and juicy (for the wives).
We're happy we did this, I'm commited now to adjust and try again. Pictures are chronological. Thanks for watching my thread.

The cut picture doesn’t look like a clean cut. Did you use a serrated knife?

Sous vide is pretty cool if you read a lot about it. Way more than just flopping meat in water. It's impossible to overcook anything with it and the meat is swimming in it's own juice the entire time which leads to great flavor. I have played with it with just adding warm water to a cooler and doing it that way. I will buy an actual unit soon now that I know how easy it is.
I will never give up my grill but this is another tool for cooking. Be like throwing away the skillets just because I have a Blackstone lol.

To each their own, I guess. I'm glad y'all like it, but I think I'll stick to just cooking my steaks over a fire. Works plenty good enough for me. Takes about 6 minutes.
Yeah, me too.

Guess it's worth trying ?? (I'll stick with my PK grill...)
That's me too. Folks can cook how they want.

I'm gonna get one of these soon! I'm also bbn considering gr setting one of the big flame throwers like what is used to patch asphalt. Should sear the whole steak in a couple seconds. One youtube guy did a whole brisket and seared it with that. I will just have to set the meat on my grill to sear...

How do you like your steaks cooked?

Medium. Rare is easy. Done is easy and stupid. Medium os not impossible but hard for me to be consistent

140 is the perfect medium
