Ever try a reverse sear?

Anyway, we just did a 24 roast but precooked most of the way with small potatoes and carrots. We do it again, I'll throw in some onions.

That's my plan this time, maybe vacuum seal some potato slices lower temp a little and sear also.

 

[dfergie]

I read the reverse sear wrong, haven't tried that yet.
Pulled the roast salted then seared in cast iron pan @450F (bacon grease)about a minute each side and edges.
Tender, tasty made mashed potatoes with, dogs and the Mama liked also...

Dogs aren't picky. Mama might be. But she picked you anyway.

5 small mason jars
1 lb frozen (pitted) blueberries
Honey (maybe a table spoon each)
Vodka to 1" below lid
132F for 2:45 then left in bath a couple more
Dangerously tasty...
Beats 2 weeks at least of room temp.

About to do almost the same with cherry's using brown sugar, all the honey was almost solidified but comparing the 7 month old vs latest both are good, just different.

 

[dfergie]

1 lb pitted cherries
2 tablespoons light brown sugar for 2 smaller jars
3 tablespoons of the sugar for the larger jar
Vodka to bottom of threads, in the bath at 132.5 for 3:15
Haven't tried this with cherries yet, but should work the same, won't have to repeat for a few months unless I get more jars and try Apple Pie "moonshine" with everclear.
If I didn't have a roast in the crockpot I would put a steak in the bath, same temp for medium rare...

So the major end product is the hootch, or the fruit?

Inquiring wives want to know.
