Beef Tenderloin sous vide for 4 hours at 59C, with red wine sauce, roast potatoes, peas and mushrooms.

those potatoes look heavenly. Did you do the boil/broil method? Beef looks good too, how did you cook it? The way it was butchered looks strange. It looks it was a pot roast, but it's way too rare for that to be the case.

I've got a good cheat for roast potatoes, but it only works with them cut up small. I cut them and mircowave them for 5 min in a shallow bowl of water, then roast for 30min at 400F tossing halfway through.
Beef was sous vide 60C for 4 hours, it had to take that long because it was a 3inch thick cut of filet.
I sliced it up when I served it, thats why it looks like that.

You're right. It would actually be cooked safely instead of BARELY medium rare cook temp. Protip: the rested beef should be that temp. You basically let your beef spend 4 hours in the "danger zone", retard.

[Anonymous No.11381388]

>>11381369
57 degrees would be medium rare, 59/60 is medium. And thats well out of the danger zone, it what the internal temperture of your steak would if you cooked it on a grill or in a pan. If the temp got higher than than it would go from medium to medium well then well done, if it was lower than that it would be medium rare or rare.

Wrong. They'd roast it if it was a roast (what OP posted), or grill if it was a steak. And even if they did, the COOK TEMP wouldn't be what they hoped the RESTED TEMP would be 4 hours later, retard. And they'd be using equipment costing thousands, if they did, not the $200 meme heating element with thermometer Op used.
>>11381396
You obviously don't know wtf you're talking about. He set it to sub 140F temps. It could've taken 30 minutes to get it to a temp that STILL wouldn't kill most harmful bacteria, held it at that sub optimal temp for 3 more hours, and then assumed the beef was "medium-rare" because that's the cook temp he used. Do you really think you'd make a medium rare roast by setting the oven to 138 degrees? Retard.

Hey there buddy, looks like you aren't used to the 4chan reply system and your (You) cut off. Even if that meat was raw (sous vide means it never will be), raw meat is still mostly safe to eat if you know your distributors.

First time posting in this thread, but....

>Posts picture of your dish
>"What do you think"
>Why are people criticizing me on plating

Firstly, your tenderloin was lousily trimmed. Secondly, I can't tell how the sear is due to the way you plated your steak. Thirdly, what else are we supposed to say other than the visual aspect (plating) of a dish that we can't even eat.

Easy mode: great job, it's nice to see people finally using sous vide as a non commercial technique, also your potatoes look awesome, keep it up man!

Hard mode: your steak should have been cut more evenly, they look like uneven hunks of eat; you should have added orange or yellow bell peppers for contrast; you should've taken more care to keep the contents of your dish inside the rings for a more pleasing aesthetic; I could go on...

Sous vide can be safely done at a lower temperature, it's just technically against regulations.
