Spec me some sous-vide ribs

[Scam]

As title! Haven't ventured into any "slow cooked" sous-vide recipes yet (just steak, chicken breast so far) but we're going round to a friends this weekend and I thought what better opportunity to give some ribs a go. The idea being I do the hard work at home, then take them round to finish on the BBQ.

I was looking at the SE recipe here: https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/09/sous-vide-pork-ribs-recipe-food-lab.html

Anything else to consider? Is the Colgins liquid smoke the best? I see it's available on Amazon.

Sidenote; I can't say my girlfriend is particularly excited about doing these rolleyes: ), any other sous-vide BBQ recipes to consider?

Yeah I have low expectations on the BBQ side. I don't think it's quite a portable tin tray but won't be far off

Did you use the Colgin liquid smoke?

Thanks guys. Maybe I'll do some variation of the SE recipe. I'm preparing for the girlfriends questioning of why the heck I need to cook something for 12hrs+ but to be honest I'm also wondering about the electricity cost. Does it use a lot leaving it on for that amount of time?

There's articles online re electric usage. Short answer is that it's really cheap to run, especially if you have an insulated container.

Cool. Another question now that I have ordered my Colgin's liquid smoke from Amazon ( )... how much water would you lose to evaporation over 12hrs? Can't off the top of my head tell you the size of the pot but it's a big stock pot -- not huge mind. I'll put some foil over the top for insulation etc. so I'm sure that'll help

Groovy!
