Sous-Vide Apps & Guides "Should you use them?"

Image
When I first had the inkling to write about Sous-Vide-Apps and guides, I thought they were unworthy. Except for Dr. Baldwins tables, I've found Sous-Vide Apps and most guides untrustworthy. After exploring Apps and guides, the scene from Thor popped into my head. I loved this movie.  I've written previously about Apps, and I will provide some links down below.  Hydro-Pro Mini Review  The Tale of three Ribeyes I used two Ribeyes for my muse that were almost equal in weight and thickness.

The fat will render down and add tremendous flavor to the overall dish. This post is not exactly a recipe but more liken to a food diary entry. I like to occasionally record moments like this for posterity. I will most likely make this dish again but will not follow this
