Sous Vide

[tempest63]

I was mooching through an American based food website where it appears every contributor uses sous vide in their food preparation.
I saw a documentary on tv some time back where a UK pub chain cooked their dishes centrally sous vide style before distribution for finishing off on the individual sites/pubs/restaurants.
Does anyone here regularly use sous vide for food preparation at home and if they do, is it really worth all the cost and bother?

Does anyone here regularly use sous vide for food preparation at home ?

Not I, but I increasingly find that many, if not most, of the "traditional Christmas lunches/dinners" on offer now use sous vide turkey rather than roast ...

I wouldn't say regularly but sous vide is great and not much effort really.  Makes great pork chops, cooked to perfection. Should use it more often but like a lot of gadgets, I don't make the effort enough. Except for my instant pot which gets used a ton.

I have a multi cooker that does sous vide among other options, including steaming (for the proper puddings)

I see SV as merely another tool in my culinary drawer.
