				 Re: Sous vide 
 
			
			I've been home the last few days because of the storm and decided to clean out the freezer.First, I found a small roast beef about one and a half times the size of my fist.
 No idea what cut it was, but it was likely top or bottom round.
 4.5 hours at 131°.  Much to my surprise it was unbelievably tender.
 Used the juice in the bag and some mushrooms to make a gravy, and served it as open faced sandwiches.
 
 Next up boneless turkey breast. Marinated for 4 hours, removed from marinade and did 3 hours at 145°.
 Truly the moistest turkey I've ever had. Sliced it up and didn't even bother to make a gravy.  Used the left overs to make Turkey clubs the following day and it was still plenty moist.
 The texture was also very different, in a good way.  It didn't have any of the stringy-ness ( is that a word?) that I associate with turkey or chicken.
 
 Finally I found a few boneless chicken breasts.  145° for 60 min.
 Used them to make chicken salad sandwiches.  Again, unbelievably moist.
 I commented to my wife that they were moist enough that we didn't need mayo.
 Tried some with out mayo, and added a slice of avocado instead. It was really good.
