Sort | Detail | Explanation | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Beef | Steak | Rare | 54 | 01:00 | Think tender cuts like rib eye, New York strip, and sirloin. These times and temps are based on 1 in (2.5 cm) pieces, but a skinnier steak won’t overcook in the bath. Be careful when searing, however, as it’s easy to overcook thin pieces. |
Medium | 58 | 01:00 | |||
Well Done | 68 | 01:00 | |||
Roast | Rare | 56 | 07:00 | We like to cook whole roasts—large tender cuts often labeled under names like prime rib or rib roast—at a slightly higher temperature than steaks in order to achieve the optimal texture. | |
Medium | 60 | 06:00 | |||
Well Done | 70 | 05:00 | |||
Tough cuts | Rare | 55 | 24h | Here’s where sous vide shines brightest—you’ll be blown away the first time you slowly cook a cheaper cut like brisket or chuck, converting it into something with great flavor and texture. | |
Medium | 75 | 24h | |||
Well Done | 85 | 08:00 | |||
Pork | Chops | Rare | 58 | 01:00 | This is the way to cook any pork marked “chop” or “loin” to get great results—whether your meat is fatty or lean, boneless or bone-in. |
Medium | 62 | 01:00 | |||
Well Done | 70 | 01:00 | |||
Roast | Rare | 58 | 03:00 | We cook pork roast at the same temperature as we do individual chops—it just takes a while longer. Brine your roast ahead of time for even more flavor. | |
Medium | 62 | 03:00 | |||
Well Done | 70 | 03:00 | |||
Tough cuts | Rare | 60 | 08:00 | Cheaper cuts like pork belly and shoulder need some time to cook in the bath but come out spectacularly tender and full of flavor. | |
Medium | 68 | 08:00 | |||
Well Done | 85 | 08:00 | |||
Chicken | Light meat | Supple | 60 | 01:00 | Breasts cooked at 65 °C are a crowd-pleaser; try them at 60 °C for a novel texture that’s great for chilled chicken salads. Boneless chicken thighs will cook through in about 45 minutes, but to give whole bone-in legs a braisey texture, leave them in the water for three hours. |
Tender | 65 | 01:00 | |||

Dark meat | Tender | 65 | 00:45 | ||
Off the bone | 75 | 00:45 | |||
Lamb | Rack of lamb | Rare | 52 | 02:00 | Smaller New Zealand or Australian lamb needs only around 45 minutes to cook, at a minimum. Larger American lamb should be cooked for a minimum of one hour. Lamb rack cooked under 54C should not be cooked for longer than two and a half hours at a time, for food-safety reasons |
Medium | 57 | 03:00 | |||
Well Done | 63 | 03:40 | |||
Fish | 2.5cm =- 10 min | Tender | 40 | 00:40 | We cook most fish at 122 °F / 50 °C to get that great tender, flaky texture. You can cook several pieces in the same bag, but don’t crowd them. If you have a large whole fish, break it down to help it cook evenly. |
Flaky | 50 | ||||

Veggies | Green | 82 | 00:10 | Cooked at 82 °C for 10 minutes, green vegetables such as asparagus will come out bright and crunchy. But because different veggies cook differently, give ’em a pinch every few minutes to check the texture. | |
Winter Squash | 85 | 01:00 | |||
Potato/roots | 85 | 02:00 | While this time and temp combo will work for a variety of root vegetables, keep in mind that the results can vary depending on the source of the veg. The woody carrots you find at a lot of supermarkets, for instance, will soften way more slowly than organic farmers’ market fare. | ||
Whole potato | 85 | 01:30 | |||
Fruit | Warm | 68 | 01:45 | Ripen berries, peaches, plums and other fruits at 68 °C for a lovely warm topping to desserts, breakfast pastries, or savory dishes.To thoroughly cook stone fruits and such for making purées, cook at 85 °C | |
Soft (puree) | 85 | 00:30 | |||
