I went through a phase where I was cooking everything sous vide. That’s not an exaggeration. Everything. Pork belly. Chicken breast. Beef short ribs. Salmon fillets. I couldn’t be stopped! Sous vide cooking scratched the same itch as home-brewing, baking sourdough, and pickling chile peppers—all that science-y food stuff that I love. And what made it all possible was the best sous vide machine in the game, the Breville Joule Sous Vide.

Sous Vide: A Simple and Stress-Free Way to Reheat Almost Anything.
How does it work?
The Joule is a slim cylinder about the size of a relay baton. Lower it into a pot of water, and the Joule will heat that water to a specified temperature and hold it there indefinitely. Whatever is hanging out in that precisely heated water—a bag of halibut steaks, eggs, potatoes, you name it—will cook at that exact temperature but never past it.
Ever worry about slicing into that expensive cut of meat you purchased for a dinner party, only to find it dry and well-done? With sous vide, that’ll never happen. Instead of subjecting a thick-cut rib eye to the uneven heat of open flame, you’re gently babying it in a bath of warm water, which means it will never overcook. Concerned that without the browning brought on by high heat your steak won’t taste like a steak? Not an issue. After I sous vide my protein, I quickly sear it on a griddle or in a cast-iron pan.

So, set it and forget it?
Clearly, I like to spend time in the kitchen, but I got other things going on too. I’m a man of many interests. With the Breville Joule Sous Vide, I just plug it in, drop it into a pot of water along with a bagged pork chop, and get on with my life. The app does all the monitoring for me. You don’t even need to be in the kitchen. As long as there’s an outlet, you can sous vide on a bookshelf, on your desk, on your nightstand. Hell, you can cook in the bathroom, if that’s your thing.
