I think he has a deal with Anova, because that's the sous vide stick I have and his recipes are featured. Every one I've tried has worked out fine, but I wish I would have done something slightly different -- usually a slightly different temperature.
Last night, Thai basil chicken over rice. My wife's recipe, so all I know is that it's delicious. Tonight, leftover lasagna and salad.
Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of recipes of his that we love, but generally I would say when he's going for recipes that are umami bombs, they are too rich for our tastes. I don't think it was the case with the meatloaf, but his ragu includes a zillion kinds of meats including liver and left us both with heartburn.
I love Thai basil chicken!
