Every once in a blue moon I make steak, I pick out a nice cut and I want it to turn out amazing. Luckily my Instant Pot Ultra has a sous vide function – it evenly cooks your steak to the perfect temp, so you only have to sear it in a cast iron pan before serving. I chose to sous vide at 130°F which usually produces a medium-rare steak, but I like to get a really dark sear, so it was in the pan for slightly longer to get a perfect medium – it was the best steak I’ve ever made. If you’re unfamiliar with sous vide cooking, check out this Serious Eats article to learn more about it.
These are the Instant Pot models that have the Sous Vide function, click on the pics for details and pricing. The Instant Pot Viva and Duo SV also have Sous Vide, if I’m missing any other models, comment down below so I can add them to this list.
These sous vide bags work great and they’re reusable (purchase here)
