Thank You Griz!!
Funny---That Hot Roast Beef with Gravy was the only thing I ever ordered when I was a kid & we went to a restaurant.
And it was the only thing our Son ordered at restaurants for many years too!!
And Thanks for the Like.

Looks great Bear!
You should try searing it with a torch.
It's quick & gives it a nice crust.

Thank You Al !!!
I do sear with a torch sometimes & sometimes with a Grill Pan, and sometimes on my Weber Q.
However like I said above, this time we didn't want a crust, just like I never sear the Chicken Breasts that Mrs Bear uses to make Chicken Salad. Sometimes you just Don't want a Crust.
And Thanks for the Like.

The picture under "All sliced up & just right inside:" is absolutely beautiful. That's the way well cooked meat should look. Not only delicious to eat but pleasing to the eye to behold.

Bear, Fine looking eye, sounds like you have the times down pat!


Thank You CM!!!
LOL---It might take a few tests, but this is another one zeroed in on, for my Step by Step Index.
Now I know exactly what to do next time.
And Thanks for the Like.

Hot beef and gravy sammich with fries,I’ll take two! Air fryer used for the fries? I’m not going SV but air fryer is still a possibility.
 
Thank You b-one!!
Not the AirFryer this time. Mrs Bear had some big Steak Fries in the Freezer to use up in the toaster oven, and they go good with gravy.
And Thanks for the Like.

Can't say enough about sous vide - it is one of the easiest way to make cooking foolproof.

Looks great, John

You gotta try a Chuck Roast.
So far that's the only thing I've done SV that was even better than this Eye Round.
Here's the Chucky done SV:

Funny you say that... I put one in last night. Wrapped the pot in towels so the sous vide wouldn't have to work as hard. Thinking about finishing with a torch. May chicken out and use the grill though.

Grill, Torch, or Pan all work good, as long as you do it quick, so the meat near the surface doesn't get too done & toughen up on you.

Alright!! Another gadget for me to play with!! Ima get one.

That looks darn tasty Bear. Thank you for sharing.

Thank You Norm!!
I got the "Sous Vide Supreme", and I love it !!
No motor noise, holds heat Great.
I got it because I wanted to leave it out & it looks nice on the counter.

They have Circulators that are a lot cheaper, but we didn't have room in any drawers or cabinets.

And Thanks for the Like.

Here is my sous vide chuck roast. Probably the best steak I can ever remember having! 135° for 48 hours. I started it using directions from my Anova app. I will try using your methods next time to compare.

Looks Great,
However try 21 hours @ 131° or 132°, and see what you think.
I think you'll like that even better. Let me know.

Then try my Chuck Roast SV Step by Step. That's even better. I can't believe how good they get.

Bear, you said you seasoned with just pepper, garlic and onion powder. Did you not season it with any salt? Just curious, as usually I salt the meat before sous vide, but maybe due to the long cook time you salted it afterwards?
