[@SousVideEverything]

I have to agree. Sous Vide is best! The salt brine doesn’t work with sous vide as you are cooking under vacuum. But best for grilling. And YES always baste your steak! For resting there is no need with sous vide. But other methods is a good practice.

One of the main benefits of sous vide *and* reverse sear is that they greatly reduce the need to rest the steak, because you don't need/want the temperature gradients to equalize, and meat cooked slowly is less likely to "juice out" when it's cut. I'm surprised that resting still resulted in a better result, but you were never going to see the main benefit of resting the meat because of the way you cooked it.

You have no bleed out on an unrested sous vide steak, due to the nature of sous vide cooking. It's essentially been resting its whole cook.

[@MrVovansim]

This. Steak needs to be rested after grilling or pan cooking. After sous vide, it doesn't matter.

[@wakeupitskelsey]

Well they obviously just busted that myth considering the rested sous vide steak tasted better to all of them

[@brnscofrnld]

Was about to comment something similar. No resting is needed on most Sous vide meats.

[@MrVovansim]

@@wakeupitskelsey perhaps I'm just picking nits here, but they liked the rested steak more because it was more chewy. Chewiness increases as the steak cools down. So yeah, if you're used to eating rested cold chewy steak, then of course you'll like rested cold chewy steak more. It's a personal preference. But if they'd evaluated "juiciness" scientifically by measuring percent weight loss rested vs not rested, sous vide vs pan cooked, they'd have found SV resting makes no difference, while pan cook resting does. There have been numerous articles on this, for instance on serious eats.

[@AS-qr9vh]

Also I think it's a known thing that resting isn't really necessary with sous vide; Because it's cooked at the temperature you're cooking to, you don't have to worry so much about the liquids separating from the meat... Or something. I don't get the "science" of resting either.

[@PrettyGuardian]

One of the best parts of the sous vide method, in addition to the buttery soft steak it makes, is that you can pop out a steak and quickly sear it and have it ready right when it needs to be ready. If you are making multiple steaks such as for a family or hosting a dinner party that versatility in timing is invaluable. I don't think it is the "best" method. The best method is going to be the one that produces the best results for you and there are many considerations when cooking such as the cut of meat, who you are cooking for, and the tools and supplies that you have on hand.

A buddy of mine is a food scientist. And they got tasked to see if you loose any juices in a steak if you let it rest vs no rest.

I always slightly undercooked then rested my steaks covered (either in foil or a cloche), the whole point is for the internal temperature to even out so you get a more even cook from a grill or pan sear. Sous-vide is this but on steroids so no need to rest. Great episode otherwise!

[@chasm5227]

I would make one argument on the no need to rest sous vide thing. You do rest the steak after sous vide but during a different part. You rest the steak right after it comes out of the sous vide and cool it down a bit so that when you put it back into the pan it doesn't overcook the steak and create gray lines while you're trying to sear it. I made that mistake the first couple times I sous vided my steaks and ever since I switched to doing the paper towel into the freezer while the pan heats up method I have gotten much better results. The difference is it's not to continue the cook on the steak it's to prevent the steak from being overcooked from the searing process but it's still a rest nonetheless just in a different manner.

[@rdgarza1113]

Our sous vide came in clutch during the Great Ice Storm of 2021 and our fish aquarium temperature kept dropping because of power loss. We used the sous vide to warm up the water whenever we'd get power and the fish lived!
