Your diet always looks like a keto fantasy, plenty of protein and greens... very little starches

Is it that way on purpose?

Unfortunately I eat more carbs than I should. I just try to make the ones I eat worth it.

But yeah, I try not to throw bread on for the sake of bread.

If it works for you, it works and I'll never argue with that

But man I'd miss taters, pasta, rice, bread too much

Yeah, I stuck to it for 18 months or so, but yeah, it's hard to make a lifestyle.

It has value though, so I make sure that the carbs I eat are fucking good.

Nothing is worse than eating some shitty fucking Wendys French Fries or some dumb shit, being wholly unsatisfied and ate the shitty carbs.

Well we at least know you won't go hungry, heh

That steak you did on the mini Weber a few months ago proved your bona fides

whats your approach for sous vide chicken? I've done lots of read meat sous vide but I don't like the texture compared to grilling or cooking in a cast iron skillet...am interested in what it does to chicken.

This was at 147 seared in cast iron. I salted them prior, but not nearly long enough. Maybe 15 minutes, then I put some Kinder on. Nothing crazy. I didn't get a great sear on this, but it was plenty good enough. My kids are fucking weirdos and don't want it seared, but it's far, far better seared.

Psychos on reddit swear you should put it in an ice bath to not overcook it, that sure seems like a lot of work, LOL.

It's way better than grilling or cast iron, because even if you get it perfectly butterflied or flattened, it's still difficult to keep it as tender and juicy as sous vide.

The only exception is if you season it heavily, because there ends up being some water in the bag. If I'm doing chicken tacos, I still do those on the grill or in the oven if I want to use the drippings on some onions. The seasoning seems to get washed off in the bag.

I typically do it when I'm at work, throw it in at lunch and it doesn't take much to get dinner on the table, but it's really the best way to eat chicken breasts. I haven't done too many thighs, because they behave better with heat, but I bet they're plenty good too.

Tuna Casserole.

Pork roast in the crockpot with mushrooms, onions, potatoes, soy sauce and a little water... I'll make a light gravy with whatever liquid is left and some corn starch
[Reply]

Thanks. What's the temp and time in the water?
[Reply]

3 (or whatever - anything over an hour and a half) hours at 147.

Honey ham, garlic taters, corn, and sweet Hawaiian rolls.

Nicely done..

Sum bitch! :-)

That just may be on the menu Saturday!

Might I ask what the sauce was?
