Cooking NY Strip steaks sous-vide style is the ONLY way I cook them these days. That’s because cooking NY strip steaks sous-vide style makes it easy to cook incredible steak perfectly every time. It’s really convenient to make them for dinner since they can be prepped in the morning with seasonings or a marinade. They can chill in the fridge all day, absorbing the flavors and herbs inside a vacuum sealed bag.

Sous-vide cooking is the fool-proof way to consistently cook NY Strip steaks and other high-quality meats. It can give any home chef a new-found confidence in the kitchen. At the bottom of this post you’ll find a NY Strip steak sous-vide recipe to follow.

Trying a new vacuum sealer
I was sent a genius new sous-vide product to review as part of this sponsored post, the FoodSaver® V4440 2-in-1 Automatic Vacuum Sealing System. It is a major upgrade to my sous-vide process because it takes the hassle out of vacuum sealing. The FoodSaver® 3PK 11″ Vacuum Seal Rolls make it easy to pre-package sous vide ingredients so they’re ready to take out of the fridge and cook when it’s time to make dinner.

If you started with a lower-quality vacuum sealer like I did, or you’re just getting into sous-vide cooking, see the FoodSaver® V4440 on Amazon.

- Add food to the bag, select “moist” setting if needed, and repeat step #2.. The vacuum sealer will automatically seal the food so it is ready for the sous vide machine.
