Sear: Sear the meat on all sides in a large pan with butter or on the grill until it is fully browned, and the fat edge is nicely crunchy.
Transfer: Move the meat to the preheated oven, place the seared roast in an ovenproof dish, and add the cooking juices.
Time: Use the chart below as a guideline; these times are indicative.
Measure: Always check the core temperature for these cuts. Use the temperatures in the chart.

Preparing Sirloin, Entrecote, or Ribeye Roast Sous Vide

Plan ahead: Defrost the meat a few days in advance (or in cold water for a few hours) and take it out of the refrigerator 5 hours before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
Preheat: Heat the water bath to the correct temperature as indicated below. Ensure the vacuum bag is sealed (you can pre-season the steaks and re-vacuum if desired, but typically the packaging can go straight into the water bath).
Time: Set the sous vide stick according to the chart below. If the meat is still frozen, add 1 hour.
Sear: Sear the steak in a pan or on the BBQ until golden brown. You can also use a torch. The temperature will not rise further during this step.
Rest: Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing/serving.
Season: Season the steak halfway through or after searing with salt, pepper, or a rub of your choice.
