For best results you should combine both. Get the flavor from smoke and control the texture with sous vide. 👍

[@BruceCruce]

i was wondering how they had found a dinosaur and cooked it

[@boudreaux1]

No wonder the sous vide ribs were grey, they were cooked at too high a heat. The convection of heat into the meat in a water bath isn't the same as the convection in a smoker. Liquid vs. air temps don't directly correlate. One of the bedrock principles of sous vide is cooking at the desired temperature of doneness. I wouldn't sous vide beef ribs any higher than 140°.

[@troyholl99]

Agreed! 160 was too high.

[@romeshkulasegaram8452]

Completely! Poor research on their part and spreads misinformation. 2 years later to not have tried it again or posted an edit, means that they were happy with the Smoker result. Ideally, Sousvide then smoke to finish on high heat.

[@angelomariasalonga2182]

The medium rare color in the smoked rib is because of the smoke reacting with the myoglobin in the meat. It doesn't let the myoglobin turn brown even if it reaches temperatures that would usually cause it to brown. This is also responsible for the red color of the smoke ring that we look for in smoked meats. In your case, you smoked it at a very low temperature which enabled the smoke to penetrate the entire rib before it reached the temp that would usually cause it to turn brown. That's why you don't have a smoke ring in your smoked ribs.

[@Z020852]

Try deep frying the sous vide ribs. You'll have to break it down into smaller than dino rib size though, but sous vide with rendered beef fat rubbed onto the salted ribs, then a layer of dry rub. When they come out of the sous vide, pat dry and rest on a rack in a fridge overnight and work on the dip - boil 1 part soy sauce (make sure it's not the highly concentrated Korean soy sauce for soup, if so halve the volume) and 3 parts pineapple or cane vinegar with chopped sweet onions and grated garlic, then pour over 1 part Sriracha and mix, loosely cover until cool and let the flavors integrate. Next day deep fry the ribs at 160C right out of the fridge (before condensation forms on it, depending on the humidity anyway) until you get color on the exterior (it has to be crunchy outside but still juicy inside) and enjoy with the dip (and some lager or IPA).

[@scyence]

Hey y'all! Avid sous vide-r here! In this experiment, I can definitely see and appreciate that the one done fully smoked was much better than the SV then grilled-finished one. I own a bargain basement smoker that's not very good at traditional smoking, but great at doing super low smokes (around 160/170F). I have done spare ribs, beef ribs, and briskets SV and then finished in 2-3 hours of low smoke. The results are great. Is it as good as your Franklin's or Little Miss BBQs? I don't think they ever could be, those places are mind-blowingly amazing. But for super easy results I can get from my cheapo smoker and SV circulator, I am more than happy. Another great Prime Time video. Dino ribs are my absolute favorite BBQ.

I mean, they overcooked the Sous Vide Ribs by ~ 25 degrees F, But also, you should not sous vide anything for 16 hours. That also ruins the meat.

Another vote for using the right temp on sous vide. Also, how about temperature probes?

[@michaelroberts5191]

The sous vide is better for achieving the perfect temp on a short cooking meat, if your using it for a long time I feel it dilutes the flavor

[@manatoa1]

Smoked ones would be cooler from evaporation of juices. The smoker also wouldn't get them up to temp nearly as quickly as SV. So effectively lower temp, and shorter time. I'd still probably prefer ideally smoked ones, compared to ideal sous vide ones, but this wasn't quite apples to apples.

[@swiftluss4272]

They did a great job. Sous vide is basically a fancy way of boiling something in a bag at a controlled temperature. We already know sous vide beef is more mild and has a lot less of the beef flavor. Smoking is gonna add way more flavor and not take away that beefiness we all love. Smoking is and will always carry more flavor than any sous vide technique. And for most people idk if you guys know this but that smoked beef rib isnt actually medium rare it just appears that way. There is no way you can eat a beef rib at medium rare because there is way too much collagen holding the meat together. You gotta eat it at medium well or well done to truly break down the collagen to get that tenderness.

[@romeshkulasegaram8452]

In Sous Vide collagen will break down over time, however this was a waste of a rib to start a 160F. 140F for a given time, and then hitting it with a hot smoker to finish and render would have been a great comparison.

I question their knowledge of beef when they sous vide at 160.

[@newbc9806]

Agreed that threw me for a loop!

[@hkl1148]

Agreed!

[@chrismarusa2898]

They appear to dislike the technique and not want to learn the best ways to do it. Maybe they have had bad experiences or more likely they have access to the tools that make sous vide unnecessary, like temperature controlled smokers. Whatever the case, they made several mistakes that most people that don't look into sous vide techniques can make. First off, smoke flavor works much better on raw than smoked meats, so if trying to get the same flavor, you should smoke the meat before sous vide, which also allows for the chemical reaction that causes smoke rings that make the meat appear red even when well done to occur as well. They also used the same timing and temperature for both techniques. Sous vide will do better at lower temperatures for a longer period allowing connective tissue to break down over a longer period allowing for a more consistent texture over multiple attempts. Additionally, getting a good crust on a grill is never going to happen unless its over indirect heat for an extended amount of time, grill marks don't equal crust.

[@TheElitist26]

I would disagree that it's too little mostly because collagen converts fairly quickly to gelatin at 160F. It just depends on what you're looking for. I find 160F is the in between for steak-like and braise-like. The 135-145 area is steak like, which I think would be closer to what they got the smoker. The problem with this test also is that 160F in a smoker is not anything like 160F in a bath.

The temp is also what lead to the "grayed out" comment... 160 is dead for a steak, even bone-in cuts....

@@TheElitist26 in my experience not very well even at 24hr in the 150-160 range, but to each his own, still has seemed to need in the range or 30-36hr aside from only a couple of cuts, but i agree it depends what you want as far as texture goes which is why i recommended 135-45. and yeah also agreed, not sure why they thought to do them at the same temp or where the idea came from lol. its only going to lose 1-2 degrees from the water to internal temp of the meat with sous vide and much more with the smoker because air is transmitting the energy rather than water which is far more efficient at that as im sure you know, but yeah thats why i wish they would have looked into it more lol. oh well, hopefully they will try it again or next time theyll know how to treat that cut with a sous vide. the ester lady seems like a nice person and all but she goes into those reviews without like even knowing what the product is or how it works almost at all so thats the only reason im not really a fan of her, and that its repeatedly that way every single time ive seen a video from her. these guys just made a bit of a goof or didnt know it would be much better texture(imo) at a lower temp, which isnt really something a manual or etc will tell you, but at least they understand how a sous vide works and what purposes it could be good for.

can you sous vide with liquid smoke?

[@dereksummers4867]

I wouldn't reccomend it. You need to use too much of it in order for the flavour to penetrate into the meat, which gives the outer parts a bit of a bitter taste. If you want to smoke things you do sous vide, invest in a smoking gun. I don't have one (yet) but I hear they work wonders for infusing smoke into anything from ribs to cocktails.

what if..and hear me out on this one, you sous-vide it for half the time and the other half you smoke it...i think i got something going on with this idea
