I bought my duo evo plus over a year ago and have been too intimidated to use it for anything other than slow and pressure cooking. I've wanted to try the sous vide function for some time now and i'm so glad I came across your video. Thank you for being so thorough and showing it all step-by step. Amazing, I'm going to try it this weekend!!
Glad I helped... this device does a really good job at sous vide in my opinion...I think you will be very impressed with the results and what this does to a steak!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Same here too! Thank you, John, for this video! I've wanted to try sous vide, but have been hesitant to purchase a sous vide stick because of how much the name-brand devices cost, along with the extra accessories. I completely forgot my instant pot had a sous vide function! This technique is going to let me "dip my toe in the water" to see if I like sous vide or not without "going underwater" with the upfront cost! 😀👍
I can appreciate that he can take criticism, re-test and then admit he changed his opinion and say something he said as not fully accurate. Now im sure he didnt say nothing wrong or etc but he came away after reading information and adjusted his test. I 100% appreciate that mind set and this video. Well Done Sir.
OMG!!! I cant believe to how much information this video gave me! Just right from the start, with the zip lock and water trick. I would have never thought of that. This was one of the most enjoyable insta pot videos ever !! Thank you for uploading!!!
sous vide my first sirloin steak for 4 hours and it was absolutely fabulous. It was tender and flavorful. I am glad your showing ho to sous vide in the instant pot.
And I'm glad you are trying it...I think it is a wonderful way to cook a high end restaurant quality steak...at home...for a fraction of the cost...thanks for watching!
Kathy Murach I do an hour and 30 minutes (every steak for the last two years), bec thats all one needs, it would take many more than four hours to soften the meat, but then it would be like stew meat, not steak. Dry it off, then sear 45-60 seconds each side.
I use an old crockpot with a DIY temperature controller. I fill the crockpot with 125 degree tap water and set the crockpot on low. The temperature controller cycles the crockpot at 137 degrees for two hours. It's a perfect medium steak every time.
Just tried out my new IP Pro yesterday and fixed the best fall-apart country ribs I've ever eaten. I'm talkin what I didn't grab with the tongs, stayed in the pot tender. I was looking for a sous vide recipe for it and came across your video. Thank you so much for all the info. on how to do it. Very informative and precise directions, much appreciated. Can't wait to try other new things with it, as well. Thanks again.
Thank you for the informative video. I have used the sous vide setting to cook 2 ribeye steaks and 2 dozen eggs-in-shell in my 2-day old Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus. I experienced about 3 degrees lower actual versus programmed temperature when measured with a Thermapen Probe. My solution is to set the programmed temperature 3 degrees higher than desired, which works well. I will continue to monitor temperatures until I feel confident of the Instant Pot's behavior. I noticed that you did not use the most convenient way to handle the Instant Pot cover. Just in case you were not aware, the pot has two slots where you can set the cover. There is one slot to set it with the left hand and one for the right hand. I did not know that at first so the cover seemed to be in the way whenever I removed it from the pot. Please keep up the good work and keep talking however you feel comfortable.
Thanks...I was very impressed with the duo evo's ability to maintain temps... especially compared to a circulator machine... the 3 degree idea is spot on... thanks for watching!!!
Your videos are the best …I have been very intimidated by my instant pot/air fryer. Your videos are detailed and accurate. I have downloaded everything from you just because you proved to me that I can trust your input completely. Hopefully 🙏 I will get confidence after watching more of your videos about my instant pot duo crisp fryer 😂😂🎉🎉🎉
I purchased the Anova when it first became available for purchase and have used it a lot. We never use it for beef steak as we prefer ours "charred rare" and using the sous vide method is just a wasted step. However, we love big 1-1/2" to 2" thick pork chops in the sous vide set at 140 degrees f. and cooked for one hour prior to reverse searing. All of the resources I've read state that it doesn't matter how long you bathe it for after reaching temp. but in our experience, the meat is always more tender the sooner you take it out after reaching the desired internal temp. An hour and a half for medium rare steak seems like a long bath to me. Also, I know that the Anova's thermometer is very accurate but I wish you would have checked the temp. with your digital just to confirm the accuracy of that product. Other than that I enjoyed your video. Good job!
Love the "Good as any Steakhouse" comment. It's true, because most steakhouses sous-vide the steaks ahead of time. You can keep a lot on hand with commercial sous-vide bath. Awsome video..
I was on the fence on whether or not to buy this Instant pot model. I’ve had my eye on it for sometime but was concerned that it may not sous vide food properly. I’m glad you put this video out to show it can in fact do what it says. Thanks.
This unit does it well...i have recently released another video showing it again ...linked below... I'm glad i helped and thanks for watching!!! ruclips.net/video/akd5yCOq9T4/видео.html
The Instata-pot with the air fryer will become the best kitchen tool for all the people who are off grid camping or boating. Due to the time line and being contained make's it on another level.
They were very similar and almost...if not identical...sorry for mixing them up but there was virtually no difference in them...Thank you and thanks for watching!!!
Inspired by your video, I made two sous vide steaks in my duo crisp last night. I had trouble getting it to count down at first (even though the water was at temperature within 5 minutes as measured by me...10 min in and it still wasnt counting), but I turned it off and back on and it worked fine and started counting down after about a minute. An hour and 45 min and they were a perfect medium rare. Thanks for the video! I've never cooked a steak that way, and I never would've tried in my instant pot.
I haven't tried it on the duo crisp yet...the evo worked surprisingly well...thanks for sharing your experience in the duo crisp and thanks for watching!
I was trying to decide whether or not to get the Anova AND an Instant Pot but now.....Instant pot with Sous Vide it is! Thanks for saving me some dollars!
Very glad to hear that... love the idea that people all over the world are actually watching me...I hope to visit all these places one day!!! thank you for watching!!!
Did a little testing and I have an update to speed things up a bit. It turns out that whether you put the meat in after the machine reaches the specified temperature or you put it in at the beginning it doesn't matter. It takes the same amount of time to reach temperature which always seems to be approximately 30 minutes, which is crazy since I usually put water in that's already 125 degrees. So save yourself a half hour of cooking time and put the meat in the pot the same time you set it. I think this is actually how it is designed to work because the temperature ready signal is so brief and quiet it's really easy to miss it and who has 30 minutes to sit around waiting for it to reach temperature. I think all of the circulating sous vide machines allow you to put the meat in at the beginning so it makes sense this one would too despite the fact the instructions are to the contrary.
Really helpful. Thanks. Any idea how to check what temperature you set? I can't seem to check what temperature was set when I'm partway through the cooking. I just see the timer.
Also, does the Instant Pot have a temperature sensor? I'm pretty sure it doesn't know the temperature of the water. So the 30 minutes might be to get to a stabilized temperature almost regardless of whether you put in 80deg water or 125deg water. Just an idea.
@@tponce no water sensor so probably measures pot temperature. Does a solid job with sous vide regardless. I wish I had two because I use it for so many things!
@@tponce I believe if you use the temperature up/down buttons it will reveal the set temperature but you can't change it like you can the cooking time. To change temp, you have to cancel and start over...I think 🤔
It works and it was very impressive...I did not expect the results I have gotten from this unit...I think you will be pleased with it also... nothing better than sous vide steak or chicken breast... thank you for watching!!! Here's the chicken breast video if your interested... ruclips.net/video/cvCgdCNHG-8/видео.html
I just ordered this model and didn't know it had a sous vide function. Well that just saved me as much as I paid for the Insta Pot since I was going to look into a circulation style one.
Pleasantly surprised. Ive been wanting to try sous vide for a while. Got the duo crisp and had no idea it could sous vide. Crossed 3 whole appliances off my list.
I love a steak done that way...I will say I had a little trouble using sous vide on the DUO crisp... but please let me know how yours does and thank you for watching!!!
One of the big reasons I bought the Duo Crisp was because of all the different functions from one great device but wasn't sure about it since it doesn't circulate the water but I guess since it did a great job at holding a consistent temperature it should give great results anyway. Now I am thinking about all the other recipes I can try!!! Thanks again for demoing this you did a great job with it.
Thanks for a great demonstration! Brought up some good points for the instant pot, which I will keep in mind next time I try sous vide! I think I’ll try 131° to keep it at 130°. Those steaks look done perfectly to me!
Thanks for doing the sous vide comparison, John. Both steaks look great. I won’t have to buy a dedicated sous vide unit, and that makes me happy. I really appreciate your videos and am learning a lot. Since I now have the Foodi Deluxe, I am looking forward to watching your videos with the Foodi.❤️❤️
I have on older IP and am not sure what the temps are I can maintain. But if it’s all you’ve got then I’m sure the IP works very well. I also have the Anova and I would normally opt for it because it circulates. And I have a lot more capacity with a larger container.
And I totally agree... love my Anova...I think this will work perfectly for occasional sous vide or someone wanting to try it out even if there is only 2 people you plan to do it for at a time...thanks for commenting... and for watching!!!
I am IMPRESSED!!! I just joined you this morning and have never used my Insta pot duo yet but you've given me the courage to try it. Lol! I have NO idea why it's so intimidating to me but is! I'm the one who grills and uses my smoker here at home and that's ALL I do ALL summer long....I LOVE it so this will be a fun way to try steaks! ;)
@@JohnSanders thank you so much,I got mine for Christmas and I've uses it almost every week when I can.I have a really small kitchen and it helps out a lot..
I just got my duo evo plus today. I have used a pressure cooker for 10 years or so, but first time using an Insta pot. Looks really good. My son loves eggs done that way.
I had a Joule it broke. It was costly. I never heard from support. I bought an Instant pot pro. I love it. The sous vide function works great. One hundred thirty degrees is one hundred thirty degrees. The Instant Pot is a time and space saver. Here's a hint keep the lid on when heating the water. If the lid is open, it will take longer to bring to temperature. The same is true with the sous vide circulator.
If you don't want to risk contamination from plastic or silicone, the steak can be submersed directly within the pot in butter, ghee, or your preferred oil.
That's an interesting idea since there's no exposed cooking element with the instant pot (no circulator) and the pot is a cooking pot (unlike many plastic sous vide containers). Great idea
Great video! Can you sous vide your steak ahead of time and the refrigerate till ready to eat. Also what else do you sous vide. I have an instant pot with this function i want to try. Thanks
Thank you so much for this video. Saw this unit black Friday browsing and was real skeptical about it getting to the right temp without the probe another device had, the instant pot wizards look to have worked their magic again. Really appreciate the thorough, side by side, apples to apples comparison, so many other reviewers miss those details and this was fantastic. At $101 today this is a no brainer to retire my original Duo. Can't wait to start my sous vide journey. Saw this video first but checked a few others, loving those too, new subscriber for sure.
I bought the 8qt pro today. After doing the setup I set out to sous vide a couple of ribeye. It was taking 4Ever to get past the "pre heat" phase. I realized that the hot water from the tap was 30° hotter than the 140° I set lol. Looking forward to seeing how well this does.
When on the Sous Vide, Sauté, or yogurt mode, it is not necessary to have the pressure lid on, it will work with any type of lid, I use a clear glass lid. I couldn't be more happy with my Duo Evo Plus, it does everything I want it to do and more.
Just curious, still enjoying the evo plus? Thinking of buying one for myself and one as a gift but worried about some of the reviews I've been seening saying to just get the regular duo
@@Rockcityballs I'm still just as happy with it, I use it a couple times a week, last night made a rump roast with it. I got one for my daughter and tell people about it all the time. What negatives have been said about it? It is even accurate to a couple degrees when dialing in on a particular temperature. Hope this helps...
Awesome! Thank you very much! Just have seen some reviews of this particular model throwing a lot of the c# error codes, c7,c8 etc for over heating during the saute function and other weird things. I was thinking maybe they tried to put too much technology into this one but as I research more it seems like that can all be chocked up to user error/intelligence level haha. I'm going to run to williams & sonoma and grab 2 of these now I think. Thanks again for the quick response!
If you or your friend are considering sous vide i definitely recommend this unit... but I honestly think this is the best pressure cooker that doesn't air fry on the market...I really like the pot design... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
Great video. I have a Ninja Foodi but tonight I got to unpack and use my ex's Instant Pot and noticed the sous vide function. Instant jealousy hit me, I had no idea some had the function! I've been watching videos for the past couple hours, with yours being the most informative. I thank you for deciding the selling of my Foodi and purchase of an Instant Pot. Great video. Edit: I guess the Foodi Deluxe also does but I really hate the attached fryer lid.
Great vid! Like you we have both, and while I can’t see myself going to the Instant Pot first when I need to sous vide, what you have done is doubled my sous viding capacity! Now I can cook two items at two different temps at the same time, which could be super-handy. Thank you, Scott
I am so grateful that you did this video. I couldn't find the information on my duocrisp manual regarding it and what else I needed to do it. The website wasn't even helpful. I'm looking forward to trying this out now that I have the answers.
Not to be discouraging but I didn't have good luck doing sous vide in the Duo Crisp... however if you have this model... the Duo Evo Plus... it does a very good job... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
Thank you Thank you😊 I’m waiting for you to get the Char Grill oil less Turkey Fryer. It seems you can do other things too. I know you will give us the best directions and uses for this.
I do a lot of fried turkeys, I mean I've done hundreds, we love them and eat them year round...however...it is somewhat dangerous and I decided not to post a video of that but I have eaten a turkey from the oil less fryer...which may not be technically fried...but was good and no where near as dangerous so I might look into that but I'll have to see...thanks and thanks for watching!!!
it is possible the Instant Pot temperature is more accurate than a handheld thermometer. You could measure the other pot to compare but close enough. Glad they added the Sous Vide feature I've been waiting for.
It could be but the thermapen is the industry standard but I agree with you on the sous vide functioning properly...they got this one right!!! Thanks for watching!
You are by far the most detailed RUclips chef that I've seen so far! Your instructions are so detailed and are very clear to understand. Because of how easy you make it look, it is inspiring confidence in myself and now I want to try these recipes. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!
Glad I came across this video. I remember your other video about the Sous vide Based on this review I’ll get an insta pot. I sous vide with joul for the last 3 yrs.
My Ninja Foodi doesn't have the sous vide function so I use the saute setting on low. Low keeps a steady temperature of +/- 130 degrees for as long as needed. 90 minutes is ideal for a little bit less than a medium-rare done steak. A medium-low setting will increase the temperature to about +/- 155 degrees if that's more to your liking. I cook potatoes on the medium setting for a couple of hours as well. Unfortunately, there is no timer function using the saute setting so I have to use a stand-alone timer (my phone). I have an Anova circulator to use in my Ninja when I cook larger or more items at the same time which requires 5 or 6 quarts of water to avoid the dreaded 'low water level error.' Otherwise, I avoid the circulator and just use a quart of water to sous vide a few steaks or chicken breasts.
Great video I came across researching Sous Vide on instant Pots. 1 comment would be that you should have also used the same temp probe in both b/c you are trusting the probe on one device but not the other.
I have a Duo SV with the built in sous vide function. As with many other online commentators, the sous vide function on MY unit is subject to frequent inaccurate temperatures that can be off by a significant amount. The other features are great and the sous vide function is good as an introduction or use where accurate temps are not important.
I have not used that model...I assume they have upgraded the sous vide controls on this model because it worked flawlessly in my opinion...but that is good info and thanks for watching and for sharing that!!
Are you using the pressure cooking lid? IP added a note on their Duo SV page saying to use pressure cooking lid locked on, or no lid at all. And do not use the glass lid because it may cause the machine to overheat beyond the sous vide setpoint. (The manual for this new Duo Evo Plus says it makes no difference whether you have the steam release open or closed.) I have the new 2019 Duo Plus 6qt. that QVC sells. I tested some sous vide temperatures over a 2 hour timeframe, with pressure lid on. Temp overshot 5F degrees initially at the beep that indicates temperature is reached. But it soon dropped to only 1F higher than setpoint and appears to steadiy maintain that temperature over 2 hours. I measured temperature at random intervals. I have access to an Ultra 8qt and 6qt. I'll do the same test on them when I get time.
Sous-vide is the same method no matter what devices you use. It's a slow-cooked piece of meat inside of a vacuum sealed bag and that's pretty much it. Doesn't matter if you use a stick Sous-vide which I have or the instapot duo crisp which I also have. Try to Sous-vide the meat for like 12 hours set it and forget it and after you put a nice sear on those steaks save the juice because you can render it down with a little red wine and use it for like an onion, garlic, mushroom chutney. Make sure your pan is super hot when you go to sear it. You can actually overcook the steak if you have it in that pan for too long! You want to sear it for 30 seconds on each side and you're done. It will blow your mind how good the steak will be. The biggest trick is trying to get that caramelized edge very fast! That's why you need a super hot non-stick pan little bit of olive oil.
I'm not sure how more than 2 steaks would do and I would not personally cook more than 2 at a time in it but even then i would maybe add another 30 minutes... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
I'm waiting for my duo evo to arrive and binge watching recipes! Can't wait to try this, but quick question, do you need to season or marinate or anything before you put it in the bag?
great video, thanks. I wonder how low can the temperature setting go on the sous vide function? could it go as low as 100 F? Thanks. If it does, can make cheese with it.
Two questions if I may.. 1) How do you know how long to do the initial sous vide? 2) How bad is the smoke? Would this work inside an apartment without setting off the alarms?
Thank you! I’ve been wanting to the sous vide function it but wasn’t confident enough yet. Was looking at the Stasher bags and wondered if they were worth it. Helpful video.
Could it be that the circulator is needed if the heat source is in one stationary spot? The Insta-Pot has heat circumferentially so maybe that's why there's no need for the water to be on the move, constantly. I like the looks of that pan but wonder if the plastic hinged-lid type might be preferable; providing access without the unwieldy lifting of the sous vide up and out of the water while it is running.
John, Many thanks for a fantastic real world example of this way of cooking. As per the last comment, have only recently got a pressure cooker (of any kind in fact) and it happened to be the same model. Having recently gone keto (and now finding myself drifting ever closer to carnivore as much as possible) the ribeye has become a staple for us. (Thank you costco for the amazing produce in that department!!). I’ve been happy with the results from pan frying with copious amounts of butter but this whole “reverse sear” thing is something I’ve wanted to try. My wife likes hers done a little more than me but I prefer a little more rare. The sous vide method looks perfect for this. Gentle but consistent, your video is proof enough it is COMPLETELY controllable. And only one pot to wash up! Gonna subscribe once I’m done posting this. But thank you so much from an instant pot (semi) newbie looking to broaden his horizon’s. You’re a gentleman :-:
I did not have good luck with the sous vide function on the Duo crisp... it took too long to hear and did not maintain temps very accurately... it may be just my unit and maybe you should try yours without any food just to see how it does... just a suggestion...I would look for performance similar to the Duo Evo plus which did very well with the function... sorry I don't have a better answer and yours may work better than mine...I will link the video I have of sous vide in the Duo Evo plus... hope this helps... ruclips.net/video/S0btwmIuwm8/видео.html
@@buhshmuh not great. It never could get up to temperature and maintain it enough to start the timer. I set it to 145 and it sat at 144 which probably good enough really. I guess you could start a timer on your phone. It did drop a couple of degrees which isn’t great but I guess it could work ok. Good luck
Thank you for sharing this! I will be making ribeye steaks for Father's Day tomorrow and wanted to give this a try hoping that being able to cook them so I might be able to have a bit of it along with my Husband and daughter tomorrow. I have both jaw joints replaced so I am hoping there will not be any tougher spots because I am rarely able to eat steak and it's Hubby's favorite!!!
I am new to instant pot and waiting for the instant pot SV, I am wondering how that one will work out and taste? I have a vacuum kit; However I decided to use the bags with the suction pump. Thank you for this informing video..
Can you pls review the bags? I have a vacuum pump(which is electric) too, not a vacuum sealer. Wondering that the bag with a hole for vacuuming works with sous vide...
@@성이름-y9g1c I I had purchased vacuum sealed bags from Amazon who sells various different brands, quality, and quanity.; Which, came with Sous Vide bags a hand pump,Sous Vide cooking clips, and a sealing clip. I have not used these bags as of yet, I am in the process of moving. I hope I was helpful .
Can you check the Anova's temp next time you use it? I understand why you didn't here but I just wonder if the temp locks into place once it hits its original target. From an engineering standpoint it just seems incredible that it never varies even 1/10th of a degree over hours of use.
It is very impressive...i rarely ever see it vary...i have another video where I show the Anova's temp with the Thermapen listed below...thanks for watching!!! ruclips.net/video/cvCgdCNHG-8/видео.html
I bought the Duo Crisp model. But it looks like I will have to buy the Duo Evo Plus as well. Because the crisp is missing two functions I really want, Yogurt and Steaming Vegetables without pressure.
how did you go cleaning after the sear in the instapot? I've got one but I"m hesitant to use it for the sear, I have access to a pan on my butane stove which I think I would prefer.
I just upgraded to the instant pot max so I could do sous vide. I heated my water to the required temp and started the sous vide. It took an hour to get to temp. I ran multiple test thinking I just be doing something wrong and it took an hour to be at temp. I contacted the company thinking my pot must be malfunctioning. They told me it takes 45-60 minutes for the pot to get to temp even if the water is heated to the temperature you will cook at. I wish I knew this before I made the purchase since I already had an instant pot.
The only machine I know that will do it correctly is the one I did this video on...I have not tested the max...the DUO EVO PLUS...it did it really well and I think this might be the only one that does...sorry for any confusion but thank you for sharing this and thanks for watching!!!
The one on the right was actually the Anova... I was keeping track. Unless you spun the plate around off camera... LOL. Doesn't searing it after raise the temperature to a more well done temp and make it tougher?
Hi John, I'm looking into the Instant Pot options. You succeeded in answering many of my questions, However, I can not seem to get a definitive answer as to exactly what comes in the box with the units. I am looking at the Instant Pot Air Fryer + EPC (whatever that is) Combo 8QT Electronic Pressure Cooker, 8-QT. I do some sous vide but the other features are attractive as well. I do a lot of Punjabi cooking which often uses pressure cooking. Do you know what comes in the box and what one would have to buy extra to complete the assemblies? This would help me a lot in the decision.
I'm not sure i understand the question but if you are looking at the Instant Pot Duo Crisp... which is a air fryer and pressure cooker in one unit i have a video that shows what comes with it listed below...i hope this helps but let me know if not.. ruclips.net/video/jEKZrSk4JPM/видео.html
I have a 30 second rule with each side for searing, anything more you are cooking the steak over done in that infamous GREY banding you will have with a 2 minute sear. Can't beat the torch or a 500 degree iron skillet. Love my Instantpot but for searing it's a no-go.
Thanks... and I agree that the sear function on the instant pot is not the best method but it will do in a pinch... however...a hot cast iron skillet and a torch has been my go to method for years... just got a Searzall for Christmas and looking forward to using it soon... thanks for watching!!!
Won't taking the lid off the Instapot mess with its temp? The longer it is open, the lower the temp will go. Try not removing the lid to see how it works.
Instant pot has a pressure cooker air fryer combination called the Duo Crisp... and depending on your particular needs here is the 2 on the market I like...ruclips.net/video/AdKx27mADxU/видео.html
Hi John, is it possible for you to try sous vide in the duo crisp? Not necessarily make a video, but just try it and report back? I know you dismissed it at first, but now that you've tried it in the duo evo plus, it might work the same in the crisp. I'm trying to decide between the two :)
That is really nice to hear!! Never thought of people from all around the world hearing my country way of talking...lol... thank you very much... and thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders When the world is back to normal, in the hopefully not too distant future, I hope you’ll be able to visit Norway. It’s a great place to live in most regards. (Not too big a fan of winter, myself, but all in all I love living here.)
I have sold my old Instapot and want to get something that will do the following: slow cook, pressure cook, air fry and sous vide if that is possible. Do I go with Ninja or Instapot??? Or maybe get a separate sous vide as the Anova seems to work better than the Instapot?
Emeril Lagasse Pressure Air Fryer. I'm not sure how well it can slow cook. I have the Tristar Power Quick Pot 8qt and I like it. These are high pressure only. But they have yogurt.
So late but this is peak relevance for me right now. Was wondering on getting sous vide, but wife wants instapot, so I had to find out what to get. And you better get a paycheck from instapot, cause you sold that pot better than Joe Girard sold cars.
I would probably just cook to your desired doneness... pull his early and let it sear longer until it reaches his liking and then quick sear yours and serve them at the same time... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
I bought my duo evo plus over a year ago and have been too intimidated to use it for anything other than slow and pressure cooking. I've wanted to try the sous vide function for some time now and i'm so glad I came across your video. Thank you for being so thorough and showing it all step-by step. Amazing, I'm going to try it this weekend!!
Glad I helped... this device does a really good job at sous vide in my opinion...I think you will be very impressed with the results and what this does to a steak!!! Thanks for watching!!!
You should try the Yogurt function
Same
Same here too! Thank you, John, for this video! I've wanted to try sous vide, but have been hesitant to purchase a sous vide stick because of how much the name-brand devices cost, along with the extra accessories. I completely forgot my instant pot had a sous vide function! This technique is going to let me "dip my toe in the water" to see if I like sous vide or not without "going underwater" with the upfront cost! 😀👍
Yes it will... and it works fairly well...thank you for watching!!!
I can appreciate that he can take criticism, re-test and then admit he changed his opinion and say something he said as not fully accurate. Now im sure he didnt say nothing wrong or etc but he came away after reading information and adjusted his test. I 100% appreciate that mind set and this video. Well Done Sir.
Thank you...i do make mistakes every once in awhile but I always try to correct them when possible...thanks for watching!!!
OMG!!! I cant believe to how much information this video gave me! Just right from the start, with the zip lock and water trick. I would have never thought of that. This was one of the most enjoyable insta pot videos ever !! Thank you for uploading!!!
And thank you Kevin for watching... glad you enjoyed it!!!
sous vide my first sirloin steak for 4 hours and it was absolutely fabulous. It was tender and flavorful. I am glad your showing ho to sous vide in the instant pot.
And I'm glad you are trying it...I think it is a wonderful way to cook a high end restaurant quality steak...at home...for a fraction of the cost...thanks for watching!
Kathy Murach I do an hour and 30 minutes (every steak for the last two years), bec thats all one needs, it would take many more than four hours to soften the meat, but then it would be like stew meat, not steak. Dry it off, then sear 45-60 seconds each side.
Can i sou vide in a zip loc bag?
Yes... Just use the displacement method
I use an old crockpot with a DIY temperature controller. I fill the crockpot with 125 degree tap water and set the crockpot on low. The temperature controller cycles the crockpot at 137 degrees for two hours. It's a perfect medium steak every time.
That is a good idea...I might have to try that sometime...thanks for sharing and thanks for watching!
I like the temp controller idea! I have a crockpot and a temp controller is only 30 bucks on Amazon!
My man using shop towels in the kitchen. I love it.
Lol... they work very well !!! Thanks for watching!!!
Just tried out my new IP Pro yesterday and fixed the best fall-apart country ribs I've ever eaten. I'm talkin what I didn't grab with the tongs, stayed in the pot tender. I was looking for a sous vide recipe for it and came across your video. Thank you so much for all the info. on how to do it. Very informative and precise directions, much appreciated. Can't wait to try other new things with it, as well. Thanks again.
Excellent zero to hero demo of how to sous vide cook a steak in the instant pot.
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the informative video. I have used the sous vide setting to cook 2 ribeye steaks and 2 dozen eggs-in-shell in my 2-day old Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus. I experienced about 3 degrees lower actual versus programmed temperature when measured with a Thermapen Probe. My solution is to set the programmed temperature 3 degrees higher than desired, which works well. I will continue to monitor temperatures until I feel confident of the Instant Pot's behavior.
I noticed that you did not use the most convenient way to handle the Instant Pot cover. Just in case you were not aware, the pot has two slots where you can set the cover. There is one slot to set it with the left hand and one for the right hand. I did not know that at first so the cover seemed to be in the way whenever I removed it from the pot.
Please keep up the good work and keep talking however you feel comfortable.
Thanks...I was very impressed with the duo evo's ability to maintain temps... especially compared to a circulator machine... the 3 degree idea is spot on... thanks for watching!!!
Your videos are the best …I have been very intimidated by my instant pot/air fryer. Your videos are detailed and accurate. I have downloaded everything from you just because you proved to me that I can trust your input completely. Hopefully 🙏 I will get confidence after watching more of your videos about my instant pot duo crisp fryer 😂😂🎉🎉🎉
I purchased the Anova when it first became available for purchase and have used it a lot. We never use it for beef steak as we prefer ours "charred rare" and using the sous vide method is just a wasted step. However, we love big 1-1/2" to 2" thick pork chops in the sous vide set at 140 degrees f. and cooked for one hour prior to reverse searing. All of the resources I've read state that it doesn't matter how long you bathe it for after reaching temp. but in our experience, the meat is always more tender the sooner you take it out after reaching the desired internal temp. An hour and a half for medium rare steak seems like a long bath to me. Also, I know that the Anova's thermometer is very accurate but I wish you would have checked the temp. with your digital just to confirm the accuracy of that product. Other than that I enjoyed your video. Good job!
I'm finally brave enough to try sous vide in my foodi ninja smart-lid with your instructions. You have not steered me wrong yet. Thanks
Love the "Good as any Steakhouse" comment. It's true, because most steakhouses sous-vide the steaks ahead of time. You can keep a lot on hand with commercial sous-vide bath. Awsome video..
Thanks...glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!!!
I was on the fence on whether or not to buy this Instant pot model. I’ve had my eye on it for sometime but was concerned that it may not sous vide food properly. I’m glad you put this video out to show it can in fact do what it says. Thanks.
This unit does it well...i have recently released another video showing it again ...linked below... I'm glad i helped and thanks for watching!!!

The Instata-pot with the air fryer will become the best kitchen tool for all the people who are off grid camping or boating. Due to the time line and being contained make's it on another level.
I totally agree... this type device is not only really good for almost any kitchen... it is perfect for that type stuff...thanks for watching!!!
Yeah he did mix them up, but like he said they look Very similar!
They were very similar and almost...if not identical...sorry for mixing them up but there was virtually no difference in them...Thank you and thanks for watching!!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed it and I was hoping he would taste BOTH even though he said they were identical. :-)
that dog is a saint for not going crazy with that steak smell and the juice dripping on the floor haha
He is the best dog ever!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Inspired by your video, I made two sous vide steaks in my duo crisp last night. I had trouble getting it to count down at first (even though the water was at temperature within 5 minutes as measured by me...10 min in and it still wasnt counting), but I turned it off and back on and it worked fine and started counting down after about a minute. An hour and 45 min and they were a perfect medium rare. Thanks for the video! I've never cooked a steak that way, and I never would've tried in my instant pot.
I haven't tried it on the duo crisp yet...the evo worked surprisingly well...thanks for sharing your experience in the duo crisp and thanks for watching!
I was trying to decide whether or not to get the Anova AND an Instant Pot but now.....Instant pot with Sous Vide it is! Thanks for saving me some dollars!
Glad I helped... love my Anova but this does a good job too...thanks for watching!!!
what really caught my attention in this video is u used the same pot to sear the steak. Awesome, will do the same
It works well... glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!!!
Thank you for sharing. I was going to buy a machine, but I already have an instapot!
Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱.
Love your videos so much.
Thank you 👍
Very glad to hear that... love the idea that people all over the world are actually watching me...I hope to visit all these places one day!!! thank you for watching!!!
I use my Instant Pot Ultra to Sous Vide meat quite often and love the results. Thanks for your great, informative videos! Love the recipes and ideas.
It really worked well...the steak was great...thanks for watching!
Did a little testing and I have an update to speed things up a bit. It turns out that whether you put the meat in after the machine reaches the specified temperature or you put it in at the beginning it doesn't matter. It takes the same amount of time to reach temperature which always seems to be approximately 30 minutes, which is crazy since I usually put water in that's already 125 degrees. So save yourself a half hour of cooking time and put the meat in the pot the same time you set it. I think this is actually how it is designed to work because the temperature ready signal is so brief and quiet it's really easy to miss it and who has 30 minutes to sit around waiting for it to reach temperature. I think all of the circulating sous vide machines allow you to put the meat in at the beginning so it makes sense this one would too despite the fact the instructions are to the contrary.
I agree... I can't imagine it hurting anything... Thanks and thanks for watching!!!
Really helpful. Thanks. Any idea how to check what temperature you set? I can't seem to check what temperature was set when I'm partway through the cooking. I just see the timer.
Also, does the Instant Pot have a temperature sensor? I'm pretty sure it doesn't know the temperature of the water. So the 30 minutes might be to get to a stabilized temperature almost regardless of whether you put in 80deg water or 125deg water. Just an idea.
@@tponce no water sensor so probably measures pot temperature. Does a solid job with sous vide regardless. I wish I had two because I use it for so many things!
@@tponce I believe if you use the temperature up/down buttons it will reveal the set temperature but you can't change it like you can the cooking time. To change temp, you have to cancel and start over...I think 🤔
Just bought this model and I was hoping the sous vide mode worked. Super excited to try it now. Thanks for the detailed review and demo!
It works and it was very impressive...I did not expect the results I have gotten from this unit...I think you will be pleased with it also... nothing better than sous vide steak or chicken breast... thank you for watching!!!
Here's the chicken breast video if your interested...
ruclips.net/video/cvCgdCNHG-8/видео.html
@@JohnSanders thanks so much! Just subbed, this was the first video of yours that I viewed!
I just ordered this model and didn't know it had a sous vide function. Well that just saved me as much as I paid for the Insta Pot since I was going to look into a circulation style one.
Pleasantly surprised. Ive been wanting to try sous vide for a while. Got the duo crisp and had no idea it could sous vide. Crossed 3 whole appliances off my list.
I love a steak done that way...I will say I had a little trouble using sous vide on the DUO crisp... but please let me know how yours does and thank you for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders what was giving you trouble? Do you have a video for it?
I think it took way too long to come to temp... but others have offered some remedies but I have not tried them yet...
One of the big reasons I bought the Duo Crisp was because of all the different functions from one great device but wasn't sure about it since it doesn't circulate the water but I guess since it did a great job at holding a consistent temperature it should give great results anyway. Now I am thinking about all the other recipes I can try!!! Thanks again for demoing this you did a great job with it.
I just use the grate to avoid contact with the bottom of the pot. The fluid will circulate via convection.
@@johngalt97 I have used this feature a couple times now and really liked the results.
Thanks for a great demonstration! Brought up some good points for the instant pot, which I will keep in mind next time I try sous vide! I think I’ll try 131° to keep it at 130°. Those steaks look done perfectly to me!
Glad you enjoyed it... it is an excellent way to cook a steak!!! Thanks for watching!!!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Excellent methodology and explanation. Thank you!
Thank you and glad you enjoyed it...thanks for watching!!!
Thanks for doing the sous vide comparison, John. Both steaks look great. I won’t have to buy a dedicated sous vide unit, and that makes me happy. I really appreciate your videos and am learning a lot. Since I now have the Foodi Deluxe, I am looking forward to watching your videos with the Foodi.❤️❤️
Your welcome...glad you enjoyed it and thank you for watching!
I have on older IP and am not sure what the temps are I can maintain. But if it’s all you’ve got then I’m sure the IP works very well. I also have the Anova and I would normally opt for it because it circulates. And I have a lot more capacity with a larger container.
And I totally agree... love my Anova...I think this will work perfectly for occasional sous vide or someone wanting to try it out even if there is only 2 people you plan to do it for at a time...thanks for commenting... and for watching!!!
I am IMPRESSED!!! I just joined you this morning and have never used my Insta pot duo yet but you've given me the courage to try it. Lol! I have NO idea why it's so intimidating to me but is! I'm the one who grills and uses my smoker here at home and that's ALL I do ALL summer long....I LOVE it so this will be a fun way to try steaks! ;)
I was surprised at how well it cooked steaks... I think you will be impressed!!
I learn something new every time I watch one of your vids !!!
God bless you, Brother !!!
Thanks and God bless you too... thanks for watching!
@@JohnSanders thank you so much,I got mine for Christmas and I've uses it almost every week when I can.I have a really small kitchen and it helps out a lot..
It is a very neat device for a lot of situations... thanks for watching!!!
Just got 9-1 instant pot, I've always wanted to sous vide. I'm very excited
It worked surprisingly well in this duo evo...thanks for watching!
John Sanders seems like a good natured fellow.
Thanks Glen...I would like to think I am...thanks for watching!
I just got my duo evo plus today. I have used a pressure cooker for 10 years or so, but first time using an Insta pot. Looks really good. My son loves eggs done that way.
You will love the duo evo plus... it does many things very well!!! Thanks for watching!!!
I had a Joule it broke. It was costly. I never heard from support. I bought an Instant pot pro. I love it. The sous vide function works great. One hundred thirty degrees is one hundred thirty degrees. The Instant Pot is a time and space saver. Here's a hint keep the lid on when heating the water. If the lid is open, it will take longer to bring to temperature. The same is true with the sous vide circulator.
If you don't want to risk contamination from plastic or silicone, the steak can be submersed directly within the pot in butter, ghee, or your preferred oil.
That's an interesting idea since there's no exposed cooking element with the instant pot (no circulator) and the pot is a cooking pot (unlike many plastic sous vide containers).
Great idea
@@PaulMcElroyWasHere it would be a form of confit, but you’d want to suspend the meat on a rack to allow convection of the cooking fluid.
Great video! Can you sous vide your steak ahead of time and the refrigerate till ready to eat. Also what else do you sous vide. I have an instant pot with this function i want to try. Thanks
Thank you so much for this video. Saw this unit black Friday browsing and was real skeptical about it getting to the right temp without the probe another device had, the instant pot wizards look to have worked their magic again. Really appreciate the thorough, side by side, apples to apples comparison, so many other reviewers miss those details and this was fantastic. At $101 today this is a no brainer to retire my original Duo. Can't wait to start my sous vide journey. Saw this video first but checked a few others, loving those too, new subscriber for sure.
I agree...this is a neat device and thanks for watching my video and there are many...so thanks again and I think you will love this device....
I bought the 8qt pro today. After doing the setup I set out to sous vide a couple of ribeye.
It was taking 4Ever to get past the "pre heat" phase.
I realized that the hot water from the tap was 30° hotter than the 140° I set lol.
Looking forward to seeing how well this does.
I think the INSTANT POT is doing a great job. I totally believe that it will maintain 130 perfectly because every time you open the lid it loses heat.
When on the Sous Vide, Sauté, or yogurt mode, it is not necessary to have the pressure lid on, it will work with any type of lid, I use a clear glass lid. I couldn't be more happy with my Duo Evo Plus, it does everything I want it to do and more.
Just curious, still enjoying the evo plus? Thinking of buying one for myself and one as a gift but worried about some of the reviews I've been seening saying to just get the regular duo
@@Rockcityballs I'm still just as happy with it, I use it a couple times a week, last night made a rump roast with it. I got one for my daughter and tell people about it all the time. What negatives have been said about it? It is even accurate to a couple degrees when dialing in on a particular temperature. Hope this helps...
Awesome! Thank you very much! Just have seen some reviews of this particular model throwing a lot of the c# error codes, c7,c8 etc for over heating during the saute function and other weird things. I was thinking maybe they tried to put too much technology into this one but as I research more it seems like that can all be chocked up to user error/intelligence level haha. I'm going to run to williams & sonoma and grab 2 of these now I think. Thanks again for the quick response!
If you or your friend are considering sous vide i definitely recommend this unit... but I honestly think this is the best pressure cooker that doesn't air fry on the market...I really like the pot design... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
Great video. I have a Ninja Foodi but tonight I got to unpack and use my ex's Instant Pot and noticed the sous vide function. Instant jealousy hit me, I had no idea some had the function! I've been watching videos for the past couple hours, with yours being the most informative. I thank you for deciding the selling of my Foodi and purchase of an Instant Pot. Great video.
Edit: I guess the Foodi Deluxe also does but I really hate the attached fryer lid.
Glad to hear I helped... and that lid is a love it or hate it situation...lol...thanks for watching!!!
Great vid! Like you we have both, and while I can’t see myself going to the Instant Pot first when I need to sous vide, what you have done is doubled my sous viding capacity! Now I can cook two items at two different temps at the same time, which could be super-handy. Thank you, Scott
That is a good use... steak and asparagus or something!! Thanks for sharing that... and thank you for watching!!
I am so grateful that you did this video. I couldn't find the information on my duocrisp manual regarding it and what else I needed to do it. The website wasn't even helpful. I'm looking forward to trying this out now that I have the answers.
Not to be discouraging but I didn't have good luck doing sous vide in the Duo Crisp... however if you have this model... the Duo Evo Plus... it does a very good job... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
Thank you Thank you😊
I’m waiting for you to get the Char Grill oil less Turkey Fryer. It seems you can do other things too. I know you will give us the best directions and uses for this.
I do a lot of fried turkeys, I mean I've done hundreds, we love them and eat them year round...however...it is somewhat dangerous and I decided not to post a video of that but I have eaten a turkey from the oil less fryer...which may not be technically fried...but was good and no where near as dangerous so I might look into that but I'll have to see...thanks and thanks for watching!!!
It looked so crispy and they say moist also. But I trust you so was wondering if that chat grill turkey fryer is in your future.
it is possible the Instant Pot temperature is more accurate than a handheld thermometer. You could measure the other pot to compare but close enough. Glad they added the Sous Vide feature I've been waiting for.
It could be but the thermapen is the industry standard but I agree with you on the sous vide functioning properly...they got this one right!!! Thanks for watching!
The handheld thermometer is definitely more accurate than IP.
You are by far the most detailed RUclips chef that I've seen so far! Your instructions are so detailed and are very clear to understand. Because of how easy you make it look, it is inspiring confidence in myself and now I want to try these recipes. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!
Thank you LeVar...glad you enjoyed the video and glad to know I helped...Thank you very much for watching!!
Glad I came across this video. I remember your other video about the Sous vide Based on this review I’ll get an insta pot. I sous vide with joul for the last 3 yrs.
I haven't tried the joul but I love sous vide...It is an excellent way to cook a steak...thanks for watching!
My Ninja Foodi doesn't have the sous vide function so I use the saute setting on low. Low keeps a steady temperature of +/- 130 degrees for as long as needed. 90 minutes is ideal for a little bit less than a medium-rare done steak. A medium-low setting will increase the temperature to about +/- 155 degrees if that's more to your liking. I cook potatoes on the medium setting for a couple of hours as well. Unfortunately, there is no timer function using the saute setting so I have to use a stand-alone timer (my phone). I have an Anova circulator to use in my Ninja when I cook larger or more items at the same time which requires 5 or 6 quarts of water to avoid the dreaded 'low water level error.' Otherwise, I avoid the circulator and just use a quart of water to sous vide a few steaks or chicken breasts.
I have never tried that... thanks for sharing and thank you for watching!!!
thing is, there is no water circulation, so there are going to be hot spots at the bottom. how does it remedy this?
I use the wire, stool like, thingy in my instantpot, to keep it off the bottom.
Love your accent even more than steaks😂😂😂
That's quite compliment knowing how good the steaks are...lol...thanks for watching!!!
Fantastic and very informative video! Could I ask which website you were using for your times and temps please?
I was using the online version of the user manual for the "Duo Evo Plus" that can be found on instant pots website...thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders thanks John, very appreciate you coming back to me 👍🏽
Thanks for the demo, can you tell us what the maximum duration is that you can set the timer to?
Great video I came across researching Sous Vide on instant Pots. 1 comment would be that you should have also used the same temp probe in both b/c you are trusting the probe on one device but not the other.
I have a Duo SV with the built in sous vide function. As with many other online commentators, the sous vide function on MY unit is subject to frequent inaccurate temperatures that can be off by a significant amount. The other features are great and the sous vide function is good as an introduction or use where accurate temps are not important.
I have not used that model...I assume they have upgraded the sous vide controls on this model because it worked flawlessly in my opinion...but that is good info and thanks for watching and for sharing that!!
Are you using the pressure cooking lid? IP added a note on their Duo SV page saying to use pressure cooking lid locked on, or no lid at all. And do not use the glass lid because it may cause the machine to overheat beyond the sous vide setpoint. (The manual for this new Duo Evo Plus says it makes no difference whether you have the steam release open or closed.) I have the new 2019 Duo Plus 6qt. that QVC sells. I tested some sous vide temperatures over a 2 hour timeframe, with pressure lid on. Temp overshot 5F degrees initially at the beep that indicates temperature is reached. But it soon dropped to only 1F higher than setpoint and appears to steadiy maintain that temperature over 2 hours. I measured temperature at random intervals. I have access to an Ultra 8qt and 6qt. I'll do the same test on them when I get time.
Thanks for the info...I think a lot of people need to know...thanks for watching!
@@r.severn7479 yes, when I use the sous vide function, I have the kid on. From a sous vide standpoint it is what it is.
Sous-vide is the same method no matter what devices you use. It's a slow-cooked piece of meat inside of a vacuum sealed bag and that's pretty much it. Doesn't matter if you use a stick Sous-vide which I have or the instapot duo crisp which I also have. Try to Sous-vide the meat for like 12 hours set it and forget it and after you put a nice sear on those steaks save the juice because you can render it down with a little red wine and use it for like an onion, garlic, mushroom chutney. Make sure your pan is super hot when you go to sear it. You can actually overcook the steak if you have it in that pan for too long! You want to sear it for 30 seconds on each side and you're done. It will blow your mind how good the steak will be. The biggest trick is trying to get that caramelized edge very fast! That's why you need a super hot non-stick pan little bit of olive oil.
12 hours for a ribeye steak at 130°?
Can you cook several steaks at the same time in the instant pot? I’m guessing you would need multiple bags? If so, Does it change the cooking time?
I'm not sure how more than 2 steaks would do and I would not personally cook more than 2 at a time in it but even then i would maybe add another 30 minutes... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
I enjoyed watching your video. I will give it a try now that I see its that easy. Thanks John.
You are very welcome... very glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!!!
I'm waiting for my duo evo to arrive and binge watching recipes! Can't wait to try this, but quick question, do you need to season or marinate or anything before you put it in the bag?
It is optional...I usually stick with salt and pepper but sky is the limit!!! Thanks for watching!!!
The instant pot might get to the right temp faster by putting the glass cover on.
Yes... that definitely helped...thanks for watching!!!
great video, thanks. I wonder how low can the temperature setting go on the sous vide function? could it go as low as 100 F? Thanks. If it does, can make cheese with it.
I'll have to look when I get back home to see how low it goes but it will go to 100° farenheit ...thanks for watching!!!
Two questions if I may.. 1) How do you know how long to do the initial sous vide? 2) How bad is the smoke? Would this work inside an apartment without setting off the alarms?
Not sure i understand the question...
Dear John.....Many thanks for this. Kind regards from Devon England
You are very welcome...I hope all is well with you and yours... thanks for watching!!!
Thank you! I’ve been wanting to the sous vide function it but wasn’t confident enough yet. Was looking at the Stasher bags and wondered if they were worth it. Helpful video.
Thanks, John. Great comparison video. I had not heard of the sous vide cooking before. Awesome! Happy New Year!
Glad you enjoyed the video... thanks for watching!!!
Could it be that the circulator is needed if the heat source is in one stationary spot? The Insta-Pot has heat circumferentially so maybe that's why there's no need for the water to be on the move, constantly. I like the looks of that pan but wonder if the plastic hinged-lid type might be preferable; providing access without the unwieldy lifting of the sous vide up and out of the water while it is running.
Could be...i really like this device and the fact that it does many other functions makes it really nice... thanks for watching!!!
Fantastic video, you really demystified the sous vide process
Thanks... glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!!!
John,
Many thanks for a fantastic real world example of this way of cooking. As per the last comment, have only recently got a pressure cooker (of any kind in fact) and it happened to be the same model.
Having recently gone keto (and now finding myself drifting ever closer to carnivore as much as possible) the ribeye has become a staple for us. (Thank you costco for the amazing produce in that department!!).
I’ve been happy with the results from pan frying with copious amounts of butter but this whole “reverse sear” thing is something I’ve wanted to try. My wife likes hers done a little more than me but I prefer a little more rare.
The sous vide method looks perfect for this. Gentle but consistent, your video is proof enough it is COMPLETELY controllable. And only one pot to wash up!
Gonna subscribe once I’m done posting this.
But thank you so much from an instant pot (semi) newbie looking to broaden his horizon’s. You’re a gentleman :-:
Thank you for another great video John. I purchased the duo crisp and wondered if it will work the same?
I did not have good luck with the sous vide function on the Duo crisp... it took too long to hear and did not maintain temps very accurately... it may be just my unit and maybe you should try yours without any food just to see how it does... just a suggestion...I would look for performance similar to the Duo Evo plus which did very well with the function... sorry I don't have a better answer and yours may work better than mine...I will link the video I have of sous vide in the Duo Evo plus... hope this helps...

@@jeffsond how did it go? I'm doing one tomorrow on my duo crisp
@@buhshmuh not great. It never could get up to temperature and maintain it enough to start the timer. I set it to 145 and it sat at 144 which probably good enough really. I guess you could start a timer on your phone. It did drop a couple of degrees which isn’t great but I guess it could work ok. Good luck
Thank you for sharing this! I will be making ribeye steaks for Father's Day tomorrow and wanted to give this a try hoping that being able to cook them so I might be able to have a bit of it along with my Husband and daughter tomorrow. I have both jaw joints replaced so I am hoping there will not be any tougher spots because I am rarely able to eat steak and it's Hubby's favorite!!!
I am new to instant pot and waiting for the instant pot SV, I am wondering how that one will work out and taste?
I have a vacuum kit; However I decided to use the bags with the suction pump.
Thank you for this informing video..
You are welcome... thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed the video...
Can you pls review the bags? I have a vacuum pump(which is electric) too, not a vacuum sealer. Wondering that the bag with a hole for vacuuming works with sous vide...
I'm honestly not sure but I would think so... however... maybe someone reading can answer for sure...thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders i hope so... Thanks for nice Video!
@@성이름-y9g1c I I had purchased vacuum sealed bags from Amazon who sells various different brands, quality, and quanity.; Which, came with Sous Vide bags a hand pump,Sous Vide cooking clips, and a sealing clip. I have not used these bags as of yet, I am in the process of moving.
I hope I was helpful .
I'm about to sous vide a chuck roast for 29 hours in the instant pot. Thanks for the vid.
Can't wait to hear how that turns out...thanks for watching!!!
Can you check the Anova's temp next time you use it? I understand why you didn't here but I just wonder if the temp locks into place once it hits its original target. From an engineering standpoint it just seems incredible that it never varies even 1/10th of a degree over hours of use.
It is very impressive...i rarely ever see it vary...i have another video where I show the Anova's temp with the Thermapen listed below...thanks for watching!!!
ruclips.net/video/cvCgdCNHG-8/видео.html
You should close the lid while preheating?
It probably wouldn't hurt but it did very well without it...thanks for watching!
Great show! Entertaining personality too!
Thank you...and thanks for watching!!!
I bought the Duo Crisp model. But it looks like I will have to buy the Duo Evo Plus as well. Because the crisp is missing two functions I really want, Yogurt and Steaming Vegetables without pressure.
And the evo does streaming very well...I have not tried the yogurt yet...thanks for watching!
how did you go cleaning after the sear in the instapot?
I've got one but I"m hesitant to use it for the sear, I have access to a pan on my butane stove which I think I would prefer.
I just upgraded to the instant pot max so I could do sous vide. I heated my water to the required temp and started the sous vide. It took an hour to get to temp. I ran multiple test thinking I just be doing something wrong and it took an hour to be at temp. I contacted the company thinking my pot must be malfunctioning. They told me it takes 45-60 minutes for the pot to get to temp even if the water is heated to the temperature you will cook at. I wish I knew this before I made the purchase since I already had an instant pot.
The only machine I know that will do it correctly is the one I did this video on...I have not tested the max...the DUO EVO PLUS...it did it really well and I think this might be the only one that does...sorry for any confusion but thank you for sharing this and thanks for watching!!!
What about using hot water from the faucet and set your IP to sear function for a few minutes and then drop it to lover temp?
That might work really well...thanks..
The one on the right was actually the Anova... I was keeping track. Unless you spun the plate around off camera... LOL.
Doesn't searing it after raise the temperature to a more well done temp and make it tougher?
The bottom of the instant pot steak looks slightly less done. When i give it a try I think i'll go 2 or 3 degrees higher then what I want.
Thank you for this video! I just got my new Duo EVO. Going to make a ribeye tomorrow!
Great!!! Let me know what you think...
Hi John, I'm looking into the Instant Pot options. You succeeded in answering many of my questions, However, I can not seem to get a definitive answer as to exactly what comes in the box with the units. I am looking at the Instant Pot Air Fryer + EPC (whatever that is) Combo 8QT Electronic Pressure Cooker, 8-QT. I do some sous vide but the other features are attractive as well. I do a lot of Punjabi cooking which often uses pressure cooking. Do you know what comes in the box and what one would have to buy extra to complete the assemblies? This would help me a lot in the decision.
I'm not sure i understand the question but if you are looking at the Instant Pot Duo Crisp... which is a air fryer and pressure cooker in one unit i have a video that shows what comes with it listed below...i hope this helps but let me know if not..

I have a 30 second rule with each side for searing, anything more you are cooking the steak over done in that infamous GREY banding you will have with a 2 minute sear. Can't beat the torch or a 500 degree iron skillet. Love my Instantpot but for searing it's a no-go.
Thanks... and I agree that the sear function on the instant pot is not the best method but it will do in a pinch... however...a hot cast iron skillet and a torch has been my go to method for years... just got a Searzall for Christmas and looking forward to using it soon... thanks for watching!!!
Won't taking the lid off the Instapot mess with its temp? The longer it is open, the lower the temp will go. Try not removing the lid to see how it works.
It's not going to make a difference in this scenario, it's not a oven.
Does instant pot have an option of airfryier? If not, is there a model of an airfryier that you can recommend please? Thx
Instant pot has a pressure cooker air fryer combination called the Duo Crisp... and depending on your particular needs here is the 2 on the market I like...ruclips.net/video/AdKx27mADxU/видео.html
@@JohnSanders thanks a lot for your reply!
Hi John, is it possible for you to try sous vide in the duo crisp? Not necessarily make a video, but just try it and report back? I know you dismissed it at first, but now that you've tried it in the duo evo plus, it might work the same in the crisp. I'm trying to decide between the two :)
I may try that soon but I'm a little skeptical....thanks and thanks for watching!!
As a hobby cheese maker... I'm familiar with the Evo for maturing but curious if the insta pot really can sterilize
Great demo John!! I'm sold on that Instant Pot for the Sous Vide function. Don't need to get the Innova. Melaney from SoCal
I agree... it will do especially if your not doing a lot of it...thanks for watching!!!
Thank you so much! It is a really good and clear instruction for us as first time users of this Instant pot.
Next time a Dutch vid? lolll
Great videos John. I'm gonna buy one of these for myself. You can do so much with it.
loving the accent, loving the food, love all way from Saudi Arabia! You rock man!
That is really nice to hear!! Never thought of people from all around the world hearing my country way of talking...lol... thank you very much... and thanks for watching!!!
@@JohnSanders I’m watching this from Norway! I have an Instant Pot Duo Crisp on the way, with both sous vide and a crisp-/airfry lid. I can’t wait!
Your gonna love it and thank you from watching me... I'd live to visit one day...lol!!!
@@JohnSanders When the world is back to normal, in the hopefully not too distant future, I hope you’ll be able to visit Norway. It’s a great place to live in most regards. (Not too big a fan of winter, myself, but all in all I love living here.)
I bet it is a lovely place to live... we love snow... but we don't get much...lol... and i can't wait for normal!!!
I have sold my old Instapot and want to get something that will do the following: slow cook, pressure cook, air fry and sous vide if that is possible. Do I go with Ninja or Instapot??? Or maybe get a separate sous vide as the Anova seems to work better than the Instapot?
As far as know the Ninja can't do sous vide so that would only leave the instant pot if all those features are a must for you...thanks for watching!
Emeril Lagasse Pressure Air Fryer. I'm not sure how well it can slow cook. I have the Tristar Power Quick Pot 8qt and I like it. These are high pressure only. But they have yogurt.
well done SIR...well so to speak
So late but this is peak relevance for me right now. Was wondering on getting sous vide, but wife wants instapot, so I had to find out what to get. And you better get a paycheck from instapot, cause you sold that pot better than Joe Girard sold cars.
Lol... I'm not on their payroll at this time but I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!!!
Great video! I just ordered an instant pot with the sous vide feature.
Does the thickness of the steak matter? Thanks for this video, I’m thinking of getting the instant pot with the Sous vide option.
Can I sous vide to medium? My husband likes well, I like medium so medium to medium well is compromise.
I would probably just cook to your desired doneness... pull his early and let it sear longer until it reaches his liking and then quick sear yours and serve them at the same time... hope this helps and thanks for watching!!!
