T-bone and Potato Volvanos
« on: March 01, 2017, 03:43:09 PM »
T-bone with a huge filet on it.  It really should have been labeled as a porterhouse. On sale for $5.77/lb.  Rubbed with butter, hit with some Shipshewana Happy Salt, then sous vide at 134 for 3 hours.  Meanwhile I cut a potato in half, rubbed with bacon grease, salt and pepper then wrapped in foil and cooked it to about 185.  215-220 is the done temp for a baked potato.  Removed the potato from the grill then scooped out the inside and stuffed it with a cream cheese, sharp cheddar, and green onion mixture, then wrapped in bacon.  Placed back on the grill and cooked about 20 minutes or so until fork tender.  Then it was topped with a square of sharp cheddar and cooked a few minutes to melt the cheese.  Also cooked up some asparagus with a simple EVOO drizzle and salt and pepper.  Seared the steak over my vortex with the wide end up. Seared the steak a little too long and it came out less rare than I wanted but it was still amazing.

 I think I've found that steak does best sous vide for 2-2.5 hours.  It starts breaking down a little too much at 3 hours.






































Should have rested it longer after the sous vide portion of the cook!




This was a leftover potato volcano I reheated in the microwave today.

That's a great cook right there!  I never used to buy steak if I wasn't going to use it right away but now when I see Ribeyes around $5 a lb I always pick up a couple if I don't have any in the freezer and rotate them so there's always a couple on hand
