Back to low and slow. Chuck steak for an hour in sous vide will still be tough as ****, though cooked.

Only long cook I've done was pork belly, which was sinful.

Never had the juevos to do anything less than 72.

It's just such a lousy piece of meat that I'm gonna use every hour I can to slowly thunk it into submission.

I love a good fish sandwich with cheese,dill pickles and plenty of tartar sauce.
[Reply]

It didn't have cheese or dill pickles

I know but anytime I get one I have those things added,it's one of those combinations that just works kinda like a peanut butter sammich with mac and cheese.

Just an FYI :-)

So explain to me how to cook it slow but still get a medium-rare?

And isn't piercing it enough times with a form like Lorena Bobbitt attacking a cock good enough?
[Reply]

Not possible without sous vide.

Theoretically the same. Maybe you didn't Bobbitt it enough?
[Reply]

Fish didn't cook it that way?

He poked it with a fork. How much or how vigorously, I can't say. Also, tenderness is rather subjective.
[Reply]

I would say much and vigorously. He mentioned something about his ex wife
