I put a chuck roast in my sous vide and checked on it several hours later. The vac sealed bag was tight when I put it in but when I checked on it the bag had floated up due to air in the bag. The bag has not leaked because the is no meat juice in the water. I weighted it down and continued the cook.
My question is whether the meat is ok due to the bag floating up. I don’t know exactly how long it floated.
My sous vide pan is fairly small and covered. I have not had to add any water during the cook.
It seems to me that even if the top of the bag was out of the water for a while the temp inside of the bag would still have been somewhere around the 132* set point.
Sorry for such a long question to ask a simple question.
Thanks,
Johnny Ray
