Artie in the Kitchen Creating!
I got a chance to sous Vide for my daughter's "going to graduate school party". I jumped at the chance to do the whole meal sous vide for all the unsuspecting guests! I made chicken, 3 types of baby back ribs and rib eye steaks. A true test for sous vide.
Asparagus ready to sous vide
Asparagus comes out perfect every time with sous vide. I always peel the base for better presentation. Click here for recipe.
Vacuum Sealed Chicken
Sous Vide Chicken is INCREDIBLE as the texture is not like any other cooking method. I think chicken has the most difference for sous vide.

This was fantastic! chicken is one of the most transformative meats to cook sous vide. The texture is exquisite and hard to put into words. And the mushroom sauce was incredible. I think I over-plated the chicken, what do you think?

My Sous Vide Equipment
Sous Vide Supreme
This is the ideal first sous vide piece of equipment. You can sous vide with just this and a regular foodsaver bar vacuum sealer. You can add equipment as your interest increases. The only two disadvantages with the SVS is it takes a little longer to heat and its size, which limits the amount of food you can cook at once.
Vacmaster VP112 chamber sealer
This piece of equipment makes sealing a snap especially if the bag has liquid in it. It's well worth it.
VP112 vacmaster (open)
The chamber in the vacmaster is large enough for 18" x 12" bags. That can hold a large turkey breast and more. The white plate is a removable "filler" which speeds up the vacuum.
Vacmaster VP112 and SVS
Polyscience Sous Vide Chef
Latest addition to the family!
Polyscience Sous Vide Professional Chef
This is the pinnacle of sous vide equipment. As a immersion circulator, it heats faster than a water bath and it can be used with any size container up to 28 qts! So cooking for a party is no problem. Having both the SVS and Polyscience IC means you can do concurrent sous vide cooking (like veggies and meat). The poycarbonate container is a 12" x 9" x 18" Carlisle food container.
All the Sous Vide Toys Together
Yes it takes up some counter space, but it's worth it!
Sous Vide Supreme and VacMaster VP112
The two work horse pieces of equipment.
Ancillary Equipment
These are kitchen items that certainly compliment Sous Vide cooking: Large white plates for presentation, a good food processor for the sauces, butane kitchen torch for searing, squeeze bottles for styling the sauces, ring molds for stacked presentation, silicon brush for brushing sauces and a zester for fine rind ringlets
