All beef dishes cooked using sous vide, including steak, roasts, and burgers
Recipe: Sous Vide Meatloaf
Meatloaf's biggest weakness is an inconsistent oven. We've all had the distressing, if not outright depressing, weeknight meal of dry meatloaf. Fortunately, sous vide is here to save the day with precise temperature control. Here, the only downside is that you need to shape the loaf carefully before vacuum sealing as we won't be using a traditional loaf tray.
With that said, here at Sous Vide Guy we very much prefer the sous vide method - to no one's surprise. Part of this is not only because of the more consistent cooking process, but also thanks to the quick-and-easy glazing process at the end.

Recipe: Sous Vide Veal Chop
Veal is considered a delicacy by many, and for good reason. The delicate, neutral flavor is the perfect bed for a sauce heavy on the umami. With this in mind we've tried to a traditional veal marinade with a more experimental miso-mushroom sauce. This doubles up on the tenderness factor while providing nuanced, earthy notes.

Recipe: Sous Vide Hamburger
Sous vide is a perfect paring with hamburgers, despite all appearances. Like with steak sous vide cuts down on the amount of shrinkage during cooking. As a result your burgers are going to be a lot juicier than normal, and bigger too. If you've never given sous vide hamburger a spin it's definitely worth a shot!

Recipe: Sous Vide Meatballs
Meatballs are a family favourite no matter the season. Sous vide makes it easy to do large batches for the week, or as a Friday-night celebratory treat. Beef and pork are fast friends in this regard. With that said, if you're missing ground pork then sausages with the lining removed can do. Just make sure to remember that their flavor will impact the dish based on how they were seasoned (e.g. honey garlic, mild Italian, etc).

Sous Vide Corned Beef
With sous vide, you can control the temperature to the perfect level, allowing you to obtain the traditional taste and texture you know and love, while also enabling easy sandwich slicing.
Recipe: Sous Vide Pot Roast
Roasts are a classic weekend to weekday meal - great on the day of and even better during the week for easy, thermos-ready lunches. Sous vide takes longer than a typical roast, but can be set up easily and left, mostly, unattended during the cook.
