a
sous vide steak is an interesting thought, however according to this URL link, "Unfortunately, sous-vide cooking is deficient in one key category: it doesn't brown your meat."
Having a steak not browned or charred would be missing a very important taste/texture component IMO, but the article also goes on to state that a chef can do a post sous vide searing of the steak.
Thanks for the great link!
