How to Sous Vide T Bone Steak | Sip Bite Go

Step 1

Prepare a sous vide bath to 130 degrees.

Step 2

Pat the T bone steak dry, season with salt, then top with shallots and cilantro. Vacuum seal.

Step 3

Sous vide at 130 degrees for 2.5 hours for medium/ medium-rare. (note - you can sous vide tbone steak for 45minutes - 4 hours with great results).

Step 4

(Optional) Prepare chipotle herb sauce. Pulse cilantro, chipotle, and lemon juice a few times while drizzling olive oil in a food processor. Do not purée, just roughly combine the green sauce ingredients. The herb sauce should have a rough texture. Once combined, add salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

(Optional to do if not searing right away) Prepare an ice bath when steak is almost done in the sous vide bath. Fill a large bowl of water with a handful of ice cubes. When sous vide T bone steak is done cooking, shock it in the ice bath.

Step 6

Remove the T bone steak from the vacuum sealed bag. Discard the cilantro. Pat the bone steak dry with a paper towel.

Step 7

Heat a large cast iron pan to medium-high heat. Add olive oil. When olive oil is hot (it will be shiny), add T bone steak to pan. Add garlic and butter to the pan, and continue to spoon it over the steak during the entire searing process - which takes about 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

To keep the steak as medium-rare as possible, sear the steak on each side for 30 seconds. Then sear the edges for 5 seconds each side. To cook the sous vide steak to about medium, sear the two big flat sides for an additional 15 seconds.

Step 9

Remove steak from pan and transfer it to a cutting board. Rest the sous vide T bone steak for at least 5 minutes. Cut steak. To serve, drizzle with garlic butter from the pan and chipotle herb dressing. Enjoy!
