Everything I have ever cooked with my [[Homemade sous-vide slow cooker conversion kit|homemade sous vide cooker]] has exceeded expectations and been far superior to the same dish cooked normally. This time I tried a large [[Smoked|smoked]] [[Gammon joint|gammon joint]] (2.2kg [4 pounds 13.6 ounces]). An elongated [[Sous vide cooking|sous vide cooking]] time definitely breaks all the collagens and other tissues down from gristle into meaty gorgeousness. For convenience of serving, I went for a 24 hour cook time (60°C [''140°F'']) which meant I could pop it in the [[sous vide bath]] at 8pm one night and it would be ready to serve the same time the following day. | Everything I have ever cooked with my [[Homemade sous-vide slow cooker conversion kit|homemade sous vide cooker]] has exceeded expectations and been far superior to the same dish cooked normally.
