I got asked to detail my sous vide Christmas Roast by a few people so I'm starting now since I'm doing a 24 hour cook. I've got a boneless leg of lamb in also for the Seahawks game tomorrow to be sliced into sandwiches.
Both proteins are locally-grown, grass-fed.
Lamb is 5.2lbs boneless and wrapped.
Rib Roast is 6.8lbs trussed. Choice not prime grade (hence the 24 hour cook.)
I'm going to photo-blog it in comments and eventually have it all here in one TL/DR what time is dinner post.
Seasoning is all salt, garlic, rosemary and some Montreal seasoning in the bag with olive oil and butter. I will be using a whipped egg white foam to put a heavy seasoned crust on it in a 475 degree oven about 20 minutes before starting to plate.
Step One: Sear on medium high heat with a good amount of olive oil about 3-4 min a side.

Step Two: Rotate and get all sides to a golden brown.

Step Three: Toss herbs and garlic (I clipped ends and left skins on, along with a good pat of butter. Get them hot but try not to burn. (Burner off).

Step 4: Bag and seal if you have a vacuum sealer (I love my VP215) and make sure it is sealed well. You can use a Ziploc as well to about 148 degrees.

Step 5: Your sous vide water should be at temperature before you put your protein in. I'm setting mine to 131 degrees.

Step 6: Place food so bag is covered. Use a weight of necessary to hold down (I will rotate bag every 8 hours.)

8. Reduce bag contents to mostly dry, then de-glaze with some wine, add stock, then strain and season.

9. Whip two to three egg whites into a soft foam that looks like shaving cream.
