I think you have to over salt with this method to get the right flavor. And when it's right it's the best. Sirloin is usually my 5th or 6th choice and tonight it was one of the best steaks I've eaten. My boys at 2 and 4 usually don't eat beef finished off over 8 oz.

Have you been reseasoning when you sear? That's what I do. Season when it goes in the bag, then salt/pepper again when it goes in the pan or to finish right after I sear.

Nope, but I've been re seasoning after my first taste.

That makes sense.


I had a boss years ago that raved about how the sirloin was the best cut when done right. I thought he was full of it until tonight. Ive purchased higher quality cuts from more premium areas, but I've never produced a better piece of meat than I did tonight.

Best thing I've ever done was the sirloin I did a long time ago. I don't typically like sirloin. It's got great flavor and the texture of filet mignon.
