  • Sous Vide Pork and Pineapple Skewers

    Here is a great way to prepare Skewers to guarantee both the meat and vegetables are perfectly cooked, without risking overcooking them. Use your sous vide circulator to cook everything ahead of time, and then just warm up on the grill. Super easy and produces great results. Ingredients: 2 pounds of pork, cut into bite sized pieces. Various green, yellow, orange and red peppers, cut into bite sized pieces. 1-2 Onions, cut into bite sized pieces 1 pound of whole mushrooms Pineapple pieces (I used a can of pineapple pieces) Skewers Season the pork with the rub of your choice. Place in gallon freezer bags. Place onions and mushrooms into one bag, and the peppers into another. Place some additional weight in the bags to help keep them fully submerged under the water while cooking. Place into sous vide bath heated to 140 degrees, and cook for 3-4 hours. Get creative getting those vegetables under the water line. I used a frying pan and a clamp. When everything is done cooking remove and drain liquid from bag, and place on a cooking sheet.

  • 3 Ingredient Sous Vide Baby Back Ribs

    Sometimes you don't need fancy Barbecue Rubs with a dozen ingredients to make some great tasting Baby Back Ribs. Let me show you how you can make some Awesome Ribs with just 3 ingredients. Ingredients: Baby Back Ribs Salt Black Pepper BBQ Sauce of your choice Start by heating your sous vide bath to 152 degrees. Prepare Ribs by removing back membrane.

Preheat your smoker to a low temperature, 150-200 degrees. Place rack with Beef on top of pan with the vegetables and smoke for an hour or so, so they can absorb some smoke flavor. Add the Beef and Vegetables to a slow cooker. Stir in the remaining ingredients and cook on high for 1-2 hours, checking on it periodically and stirring occasionally. After a few hours taste for seasoning and adjust if you feel necessary. Add additional salt, pepper, garlic and Worcestershire sauce until it is seasoned the way you like it.

Mix in a couple spoonfuls of corn starch and stir. Add mixture to slow cooker and stir in. Last step is to stir in the frozen peas.

  • Corned Beef & Cabbage in the Instant Pot

    Here is a very fast and easy way to prepare a complete Corned Beef meal in only a few hours. Using your Instant Pot not only speeds up the cooking process, but it is very easy to do. Ingredients: 3 pound Corned Beef Brisket with spice/seasoning pack 1 medium onion cut into wedges 1 tablespoon crushed garlic 1 ½ cups (12 fluid ounces) of Guinness beer (or beef broth) Red Potatoes (1 1/2 pound in weight) 4 large carrots, peeled and cut 1 head of cabbage, cut into 6 wedges Insert the trivet into the Instant Pot. Add the onion and garlic to the Instant Pot distributing it evenly on the bottom. Place the Corned Beef in the Instant Pot on the trivet with the handles facing up. Sprinkle the seasonings evenly on top of the brisket and around it in the pot. Pour in the beer around the edges of the Instant Pot (to keep the spices on the brisket in place) Secure lid, select “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” High Pressure for 70 minutes (If you want it even more tender, go up to 90 minutes. 70 minutes will give it a GREAT flavor and nice firm, perfect texture). If cooking more then 3 lbs of corned beef, add an additional 5-10 minutes of cooking time per pound (based on the 70 minutes for 3 lbs, do 75-80 minutes for 4 lbs and so on…) When done, do a natural release of the pressure for 15 minutes, then finish with a quick release. Using the trivet’s handles, remove the corned beef. Cover loosely with foil and allow to rest. Add the potatoes (on the bottom) and carrots (on top of the potatoes) and cabbage wedges (on top) to the Instant Pot. It’ll be packed to the brim, but it should work fine! Secure lid and select “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” High Pressure for 5 minutes (it will take a good 10 mins or so to come to pressure) When the veggies are done, do a Quick Release and remove vegetables with a slotted spoon (and I suggest using tongs for the cabbage wedges) Slice and enjoy!
