The Maiden Voyage: Sous Vide Sirloin Steaks 9-03-22

Today, I embark on my maiden voyage as a newbie Sous Vide chef. Steak is on the menu but I have jumped ahead of myself. Gay bought me for my birthday, the Anova Precision Cooker and Anova Cooker Container. I have been dreaming about my own sous vide cooker so I can see what it can do first hand. Sirloin steak is my first choice to cook in the Anova. It is probably the most chosen to cook first due to the ease of the meat to cook. I pre-heated the Anova to 129 degrees and cooked the steaks for one hour. The sirloins were finished with a sear in a cast iron skillet. The results were mouthwateringly delicious. It was definitely the right choice for this steak lover.

Here is the Anova Precision Cooker I received on my birthday.

The Anova Precision Cooker is Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Enabled.

I have been wanting to try sous vide cooking for awhile and today will be the maiden voyage.

I have the Anova Precision Cooking Container to use for my sous vide.

It feels good to be cracking this open.

One tank in need of a first time to use wash.

Anova is washed and ready for water to be added.

Time to add the Anova Culinary app to my phone so I can run my sous vide.

Beef Sirloin Center Cut Steak Top Sirloin 2.07 lbs. x $6.99 = $14.47

Test to see if my clips work. Order put in for Anova clips. None included in tank. Bummer.

I seasoned two steaks with U.S. Cattle Brand Steak Seasoning and Fiesta Brand Uncle Chris Gourmet Steak Seasoning

The third steak I added teriyaki marinade in the sealed bag. Removing the steaks for preheat.

The Anova Precision Cooker lights up for the first time.

Anova is now at 129 for the one hour cooking time.

Close to being ready to pull out of the Anova.

Teriyaki Steak looks quite tasty.

I finished off searing the sirloin steaks in a cast iron skillet with 1 tbsp canola oil and unsalted butter at the end.

Since I sous vide the steaks, no need for rest time.

This sirloin steak glistens in the light today.

Spinning the steak to see if the light looks better here.

I keep spinning it and dreaming of finally slicing it.

This is the pink look I was shooting for today. Score.

The sirloin steak tastes like butter right now. It just melts in your mouth.

The slices just get better as you go through the steak.

My favorite bite of the day.

Sous vide rocks. Up Next Baked Apples? Pep Sausage? Brisket? Not sure but it is going to be a tasty new experiment.
