One of my YouTube recommendations was for the Sous Vide cooker.
Essentially a big water bath heated to a relatively low temperature.

The guy hawking it was selling it on its taking 45 minutes to cook a
steak, and then you have to brown it a bit in a pan.

I put a comment on the vid that said:

"Wait a minute. I can take a steak, sear it at high temp for about 3 to
4 minutes a side, then into a preheated oven for ten minutes turning
once and get steaks that are just pink in the middle, and not gray
masses.

So total cook time, 18 minutes.

I don't take the preheat time into account because it takes my oven
about 15 minutes to get up to full temp. So in my case I let the steaks
rest for that period while getting the pan heated up, etc.
