Sous Vide Brisket: Cajun Spice

Who doesn’t love a tender piece of brisket? We sous vide the grass-fed cut at a low temperature for around 20 hours until the connective tissue breaks down and the meat becomes rich and juicy. These slices of brisket are marinated in a blend of paprika, cayenne pepper, and other herbs & spices, resulting in a slight heat and kick of flavor. We recommend pan-searing to further caramelize the spices and intensify the taste. What is sous vide? Sous vide, French for ‘with vacuum’, is a method of cooking in which food is placed in a vacuum-packed container and submerged in water circulating at a precise and consistent temperature over a longer than usual cooking time. This technique gives the chef a level of control over the cooking process while retaining the maximum amount of moisture in the meat as it is slowly cooked to perfection. No undercooked or overcooked spots; only consistent flavor and texture all the way through! We then flash freeze the product to ensure that the doneness and moisture of the protein, along with all its nutritional goodness and flavor, remains intact when defrosted and ready to serve.
