    I am IMPRESSED!!! I just joined you this morning and have never used my Insta pot duo yet but you've given me the courage to try it. Lol! I have NO idea why it's so intimidating to me but is! I'm the one who grills and uses my smoker here at home and that's ALL I do ALL summer long….I LOVE it so this will be a fun way to try steaks! 😉

    I use the saute on high setting at first to heat the water for many recipes Instead or along with hot tap water… Doing so really speed thing up….Just saying…….nice vedio.

    I have a 30 second rule with each side for searing, anything more you are cooking the steak over done in that infamous GREY banding you will have with a 2 minute sear. Can't beat the torch or a 500 degree iron skillet. Love my Instantpot but for searing it's a no-go.

    Temperature probes are not perfect…one may read a degree or three off from another. You might want to use the same probe to check the temperature of both pots…just to keep things fair.

    In sous vide, two degrees off is huge, especially at the low end. I ended up having to start at "140" until the steak got up to temp. I definitely wouldn't use this for a roast or anything I cared a lot about.

    Your videos are super helpful in getting started with My Duo Crisp. Thanks for posting these. I'm curious how you came up with your nickname. I'm guessing the 007 is a nod to James Bond but what about the Jelly?

    Thank you for the informative video. I have used the sous vide setting to cook 2 ribeye steaks and 2 dozen eggs-in-shell in my 2-day old Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus. I experienced about 3 degrees lower actual versus programmed temperature when measured with a Thermapen Probe. My solution is to set the programmed temperature 3 degrees higher than desired, which works well. I will continue to monitor temperatures until I feel confident of the Instant Pot's behavior.

    I noticed that you did not use the most convenient way to handle the Instant Pot cover. Just in case you were not aware, the pot has two slots where you can set the cover. There is one slot to set it with the left hand and one for the right hand. I did not know that at first so the cover seemed to be in the way whenever I removed it from the pot.

    Please keep up the good work and keep talking however you feel comfortable.

    Thanks for a great demonstration! Brought up some good points for the instant pot, which I will keep in mind next time I try sous vide! I think I’ll try 131° to keep it at 130°. Those steaks look done perfectly to me!

    Hi John, is it possible for you to try sous vide in the duo crisp? Not necessarily make a video, but just try it and report back? I know you dismissed it at first, but now that you've tried it in the duo evo plus, it might work the same in the crisp. I'm trying to decide between the two 🙂

    Love the "Good as any Steakhouse" comment. It's true, because most steakhouses sous-vide the steaks ahead of time. You can keep a lot on hand with commercial sous-vide bath. Awsome video..

    it is possible the Instant Pot temperature is more accurate than a handheld thermometer. You could measure the other pot to compare but close enough. Glad they added the Sous Vide feature I've been waiting for.

    I use an old crockpot with a DIY temperature controller. I fill the crockpot with 125 degree tap water and set the crockpot on low. The temperature controller cycles the crockpot at 137 degrees for two hours. It's a perfect medium steak every time.

    I just upgraded to the instant pot max so I could do sous vide. I heated my water to the required temp and started the sous vide. It took an hour to get to temp. I ran multiple test thinking I just be doing something wrong and it took an hour to be at temp. I contacted the company thinking my pot must be malfunctioning. They told me it takes 45-60 minutes for the pot to get to temp even if the water is heated to the temperature you will cook at. I wish I knew this before I made the purchase since I already had an instant pot.

    I have a Duo SV with the built in sous vide function. As with many other online commentators, the sous vide function on MY unit is subject to frequent inaccurate temperatures that can be off by a significant amount. The other features are great and the sous vide function is good as an introduction or use where accurate temps are not important.

    I bought the Duo Crisp model. But it looks like I will have to buy the Duo Evo Plus as well. Because the crisp is missing two functions I really want, Yogurt and Steaming Vegetables without pressure.

    Unless you use your thermometer to measure the temperature in the "Anova pot" and compare it to the temperature being displayed by the Anova, you have no idea if the Instant Pot is maintaining a different temperature than the Anova.

    I'm a charcoal grill kind of steak guy, so at first this all sounded crazy. But after seeing you pull the steak apart in your fingers, I am ready to give the Sous Vide method a try…great video! Have you ever tried Sous Vide in the older Instant Pots with the feature? I heard they weren't accurate enough on the temp to do it well, but this model looks like it does.

    Looked great but the Ninja Foodi with tender crisp technology eliminates the need for searing at the end just close the lid turn it on and in a couple of minutes it looks like you seared it in an iron skillet. I own both the instapot and Ninja Foodi and the Ninja blows the instapot away in my experiences!

    get yerself a better vacuum sealer… Well If all yer doing is a steak or chop it is fine.but too small for what I do. I do whole briskets and other large cooks and those take 2 to 3 days to finish. How does the instapot do on very long cooks?

    Inspired by your video, I made two sous vide steaks in my duo crisp last night. I had trouble getting it to count down at first (even though the water was at temperature within 5 minutes as measured by me…10 min in and it still wasnt counting), but I turned it off and back on and it worked fine and started counting down after about a minute. An hour and 45 min and they were a perfect medium rare. Thanks for the video! I've never cooked a steak that way, and I never would've tried in my instant pot.
