The usual steaks and chops. I've made shortribs and that was okay. The
potential is there for some damn good shortribs. I just have to work on it
some more.
I've made fried chicken sous vide. That might have been the best fried
chicken you ever tasted. Sous vide allows you to cook the chicken
thoroughly. Then you flour your chicken and deep fry it at high temperature.
This allows you to cook the chicken for looks and crispiness - you don't
have to worry about doneness. What could be more perfect? Nutting.

I have never done chicken!!! What a wonderful idea

Heh I think I have
never just about everything but! Yes. Chicken cooked through before frying
is a wonderful idea

) Odd really, I do other meats for exactly that
reason
