I bought that exact same sous vide stick to heat up water for homebrewing (sparge water needs to be at a certain temperature so it was perfect for it without using my regular Anova). I liked that it would heat up water super fast. One day after about 3 uses, I turned it on, then something started smelling like it was burning. I looked at the screen, and the temperature readings were going all over the place. I unplugged the stick, waited a minute, then replugged it. It was at that point that is stopped working. I tried to contact the company for a return, but nobody answered. Sad because it was a very good machine while it worked.
Ninja and Mrs Ninja, my 3 girls get a kick out of you guys saying "Deeeeeeeelicios Brother... And sisters!" They think it's the funniest thing and say it all the time. Love you guys!
Love your videos man always bring a smile to my face when I see a new one come out thank you for making this stuff if it wasn't for you and guga I probably would never have tried to cook a steak let alone know what sous vide is
I purchased a lower priced unit to try this process to see if I would like it, I have the ink-bird 80.00 bucks. I have used it now for two months, I tried it on almost everything I cook. I am totally satisfied. I have done 24 hour cooks, 1 hour cooks, cooks in mason jars and vacuum bags, we have some grass fed free range beef that is to tough to eat, it tastes good but I finally just canned the roasts and steaks in mason jars pressure cooked at 15 psi for 1.5 hours and that works very well. But the sous vide changed all that, I cook the steaks at 130 F for 24 hrs and they are tender and quite tasty. Thank you from south west Missouri U S A
Loved the video Ninja 👍👍steaks looked fantastic. Tell Mrs. Ninja to get her mind outta the gutter, lol. We use our fingers everyday. That was a great video brother 👍
I have an old Sansaire (they went out of business unfortunately) that still works fine and an newer Anova pro. Both were in the ~$200 range when I got them. I just use a plain cooler for holding the water for sous vide too, and it works fine! I hear you on prices being out of control too!
I got the 1000w ANOVA cooker, and forget the brand name but a 22 or 24 quart tub with the insulation sleeve, and if I fill it all the way and try to sous vide say potatoes for mashed potatoes it literally takes FOREVER to get to the 190°F ish range. Seems like too much water. and that's after I fill it with straight hot water from the kitchen faucet....so it's already around 130°F lmao. and even though they have the app I'm not too interested....I just like to use the touchscreen on the device itself .....if something is cooking in it I'm close by anyway so meh 😂 thanks for the upload Ninja!!!
I use my instant pot for sous vide. No circulation, but the temperature holds pretty well without it. I won't cook steaks any other way after I tried it for the first time.
I bought a cheap sous vide unit from Amazon (not quite as cheap as yours), and it is a champion. I have no complaints. I knew yours would work fine. Not bad for $40 for sure.
I bought one for $35 from Aldi to see if sous vide was something I would like. It works fine and I like it well enough. Still prefer the grill for most things. Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Ninja! Stay well.
Fantastic video Ninja! I never tried sous vide because it seemed like such a large investment to get a quality machine. You just proved that wrong. Now I will invest in a basic machine like this one. In terms of the steak fries, have you ever tried making the fries in either goose or duck fat? As a kid growing up my family ate duck regularly (and goose usually for Christmas) both of which are very fatty. My grandmother would always save the rendered fat for baking or french fries. In my opinion, duck fat adds a luxurious flavor to the fries. You should try it sometime. I know you can order duck fat online, but it might be available from some of your culinary connections in SoFla too.
Insta pot has a machine that goes on sale for 70 bucks on Amazon. I have used mine for three years. A no grill no app machine that just works. It's great for the money
Amazing results from such an unbranded Sous Vide. Sadly it is no longer available but hey, saves those digits all that fingerwork! Great fries too! :) Hilarious video :) Blessings from UK :)
Definitely happier with my sous vide stick, but at least people can try it affordably with something like that. That wagyu tallow though, I'm trying that as soon as possible. DEEEELISICOUS as always Brotha!
As a Belgian living in the US, I have to add that fries are Belgian and not French, they are just called French fries because they way they are cut, just like French cut green beans are not French 😉. You can find UA-cam videos about the history, and the secret indeed is to fry twice, and to use beef tallow. Belgians even have a potato (bintje) that is perfect for fries, but they are not available here. But tallow makes a huge difference compared to oil.
@@SaltyTales i’ve never had a grilled steak. I dont have a grill. Using my SV machine for the steaks. But i think the charcoal flavour will beat the SV steak :)
I had this same cheapo machine and wanted to say that you don't have do the tap-tap-tap thing for each degree. If you hold your finger down on the screen, after about half a second ofnholding it down the temp setting jumps 10 degrees at a time. I'm a pro chef and have used sous vide setups big and small, cheap and expensive and had absolutely no issues with this cheap little machine's basic functionality - for about a year. The app worked with no issues, it kept even temps, etc but about a year later it started having thermal runaway where it would zoom out of control unattended and then trip an electrical breaker. Not cool if I was doing overnight cooks. When it worked, and I used it a lot, it was a good, cheap workhorse but the way manner in which it died sucked.
Yes indeed i need a cheap one but here in Malaysia it sales over 500 ringgit plus for cheaper but the expensive one is over 3000 plus plus ringgit.. Ninja. Btw, still cannot work and now waiting for vaccination called up is so slow..
@@SaltyTales I grabbed a £40 "Bonsenkitchen" one off Amazon, and tested it on a Jerky sample for my mum :) Have to push down hard for the clips to engage but it worked great.
A thin oil coating to hold spices on the steak probably isn't going to make a difference. It's when there's a bunch of fat like a stick of butter or lots of oil that sucks the flavor out.
I've been saying this for years you don't need a 200 machine. Their are plenty machines around $60 that will do the job just as well. Add a pot you already own and some Ziploc bags from the dollar store you are good to go
Miss Ninja laughing in the background is priceless, Nice one ! Guess they remembered to advertise the APP, but forgot to make it LOL
LOL It looks like it! 😂😂
Haha, couldn’t agree more!! 😂🙌🏼
7:38 "I know they don't look that good right now, but watch this" 🤣🤣🤣
i like the description for the egg "let the egg as soft as milk lubrication, give you a different taste experience"
Lol! I hate eggs! 🤣🤣🤣
That crunch on those potatoes!!!!
Oh man! That was awesome! 😀😀😀
Cheers to another great episode! So much great info and your positivity / energy is the best!! Love it!!
Thank you so much brother. Send me a message on IG, for some reason I loose your contact there.

Thank you for doing this experiment. I am a single father on a limited budget but always wanted to do Sousvide. This gives me the opportunity. 🙏🏻 ☝🏻👊🏻
Great video, I just ordered an inexpensive machine too, but have yet to use it.
Awesome! Sometimes expensive doesn't means better! 😂😂
Great to see you using sous vide again NINJA!! Your Videos are great Brother!!!!
Thank you so much Eddie! You are the man! 😀😀
Great episode! Do the cheapest vacuum sealer too, I need help finding a good one
Ninja Approved! I'm starving bro... you did it again!
LOL I gotcha again! 😀😀

Maaaaan! I’ve been borrowing from friends the last month and now I need to order my own! All I can find are the cheaper models here on Amazon.
That is ok but there are reports of the crapping up after some time of use... Be careful! 😀
Loved the video Ninja 👍👍steaks looked fantastic. Tell Mrs. Ninja to get her mind outta the gutter, lol. We use our fingers everyday. That was a great video brother 👍
LOL I'll tell her! 😂😂

Great video. I purchased some tallow a week ago. What do you do with it when you are finished frying?
strain it and use it a few more time to make some more fries! 😀😀
@@SaltyTales Thanks! Have a great weekend!
Please don't stop saying deeeeeeeeeeeelllliiiiiiicious brothers... and sisters.
LOL ok! You heard ms Ninja? 😂😂
Dang I miss the sisters after DEEEELITIOUS BROTHERS 😂
Facing the Florida summer heat head on with a tub of hot water... You really took one for the team! You could rebrand as the Sweaty Ninja! 😆
LOL That is a GREAT NAME! 😀😀😀 Love it!

SV Ninja, nice, just how it was always supposed to be. Stay energized amigo.
Thank brother! 😀😀
Hahahah, the electrocution 😂😂
My sous-vide takes for ever to get to the temperature. I decided to fill it with hot water or warm the water in the stove first.
Same here but that one was freaking quick! 😀😀
Ninja, we need to see a waygu round eye video!
Definitely happier with my sous vide stick, but at least people can try it affordably with something like that. That wagyu tallow though, I'm trying that as soon as possible.
DEEEELISICOUS as always Brotha!
LOL Oh man! Those fries were CRAZY GOOD! 😀😀
I don't have access to a grill, would you reccomend finishing the steaks stovetop or in the oven?
stove top, cast iron skillet just for the sear
Stovetop with a good pan will do a great job! 😀
Good video and yes you guys made me 🤤 hungry
LOL Thank you!! 😂😂
That same master culinary Sous Vide cooker at Amazon Canada is $105.00 Can.
Dang man! That sucks!
Man. the electrocuted part/edit got me.

Some lady named Julie Enne is going to be pissed at you.
Did you try holding down the button to get it to move faster?
Yes i did! 😀😀
Mrs. Ninja is so adorable.
LOL Thanks!
Ninja, we know why your right hand is tired and your left hand is asleep, and it's not because of the sous vide machine 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Not bad for 40$ another great video!!
Your hair looks great my friend!! Lol 😂
It was a very dissent stick! Thanks brother! 😀
Hey Ninja, can you share the address for Broward’s? I’m going to be in Miami in a few weeks, and it is in my list for at least one meal! Jajajaja

That box tho hahahahaha
LOL That was so funny! 😀😀😀
Can anyone in the UK recommend a decent vacuum sealer? No budget restraints, just want a reliable one.
I'm not familiar with the UK market but I;m sure someone will help you out!
@@SaltyTales I grabbed a £40 "Bonsenkitchen" one off Amazon, and tested it on a Jerky sample for my mum :) Have to push down hard for the clips to engage but it worked great.
🥴🥴One hand fell asleep & the other is in pain🤣🤣🤣 What A situation
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was expecting you oto double check the water temp to 'confirm' it before putting in the steaks. I assume it was correct.
I was correct, I did checked it but forgot to film it.
@@SaltyTales 👍
Lmao! 😂 finger workout
Love the video!!!! 💯😂
Before i had a sous vide machine, i just put the vacuum sealed steak into the dishwasher for one full cycle.
Thats a good trick too! 😂😂
Hey, i like Your videos, well done.
When I saw "Cheapest Sous Video Cooker" I thought this was going to be about that "other" channel =P
Are you talking about sve?
I gotta ask. Why the switch from delicioussss brothers and sister to ninja approved?
LOL No idea! Ms Ninja is crazy! 😀😀😀
Was just wondering why you used oil on your steaks didnt you guys prove that any oil in sous vide actually dilutes the taste?
I did because it does help keep the spices in place, but I guess you are right! 😀
A thin oil coating to hold spices on the steak probably isn't going to make a difference. It's when there's a bunch of fat like a stick of butter or lots of oil that sucks the flavor out.
Thanks guys for the verification real new to sous vide so just trying to figure out whats best for steaks etc.
Don't worry ninja, if you got electrocuted and died, I'll take care of Mrs ninja
🤣👊🏻
I've been saying this for years you don't need a 200 machine. Their are plenty machines around $60 that will do the job just as well. Add a pot you already own and some Ziploc bags from the dollar store you are good to go
Note they need to be freezer bags, the regular bags will not hold up to the hot water
... I never really got the point of an app for sous vide. Or a lot of other kitchen appliances for the matter.
if you think about how many times I had to hit that button just to adjust temp and time it makes a lot of sense! 😀😀😀
@@SaltyTales 😁 True.
Is it best to use oil or no oil in a bag?
No oil in the bag, it will dilute the flavor of the steak
The cooker is already unavailable and they don't know when they'll get more.
that deeeeeeeeeelicious was weird bro 😅 must be heat?
Lol i think so too! 🤣🤣
Libertad!! 🇨🇺 🇺🇸
🤜🤛
Patria a vida!!!

130 for 1.5 hours, They where perfect mid! Love it! 😀
No
ok! LOL 😀😀
