Ingredients
- 2 New York strip steaks at least 1-1 ½" thick (thicker is better)
- 1-2 teaspoons salt depending on size
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil substitute any high smoke point oil
Blue Cheese Butter:
- 1 stick unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- 4 ounces blue cheese
- ⅛-1/4 teaspoon salt adjusted to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon fresh thyme
Instructions
- Heat at sous vide water bath to 128F degrees.
- Season the steaks with salt and pepper and seal them in a vacuum seal bag.
- Cook for 2-2 ½ hours.
- Remove and pat dry fully.
- Heat a skillet over high heat and add the avocado oil. **Can also be seared on the grill over high heat
- Add the dried steaks and sear for 30-60 seconds per side, depending on thickness.
- Remove and serve with blue cheese butter on top.
Blue Cheese Butter:
- Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until fully combined.
- Place the mixture on plastic wrap and form into a 1-1 ½" cylinder.
- Wrap tightly with plastic wrap to keep its shape and store in the fridge until ready to use. **leftovers can be stored in the freezer.
Notes
- Pat the steaks dry as thoroughly as you can before searing them. A dry exterior helps them to get a nice crust faster.
- If you are cooking the steaks below 130F degrees, don't let them cook for longer than 2 ½ hours for food safety purposes.
- The longer the steaks are cooked, the softer they will become.
- Make the steaks in advance for meal prep, or to prepare for a dinner party. Make sure to use an ice bath to cool them down if making in advance.
- Adjust the temperature to your desired doneness.
- When searing, make sure your pan is smoking hot so you get a nice crust on the outside. Don't sear more than 30-60 seconds on each side, less if your steaks are thinner than 1 inch.
- You can cook the steaks straight from frozen. If doing so, make sure to cook them at least 2 hours.
