What're some good resources to look at for combining sous vide + smoking techniques? I see some posts in here, I saw Meathead's Sous-Vide-Que technique article...
Looking for pros/cons of combining the techniques, order-of-operations, effect of cook temps/times under each technique ... ex: could you actually get a decent bark out of something that you sous vide'd first without overcooking? Are there scenarios where you'd want to smoke first?
I'm already pretty well practiced in the art of sous vide, have a vacuum sealer, etc...
After a 12 hour 225F pork butt smoke yesterday, I'm interested in "shortcuts." I will probably attempt the Texas Crutch next time, but I'm certainly interested in researching how Sous Vide could help improve overall cook time, for days when I can't be/don't want to be chained to my smoker all day.
Thanks in advance guys!
