I picked up a cheap Inkbird sous vide earlier in the year and it’s been great to use for steaks etc. But we haven’t been buying much meat lately due to prices and I’m wondering if I’m overlooking any less obvious uses for it?

    It's great for more than cooking even. Heating cooked foods from the freezer is great and heats evenly. It just is more involved than the microwave and takes longer but if you have like a soup or chili in bags in the freezer, just throw them in the sous vide at about 130 F or 54 C.

    I deal with a bunch of physical issues recently and sometimes I'll sous vide some thing but then not really feel up to preparing the rest of the meal so it goes into the freezer for use later. And since it's already vacuum sealed, I can just throw it in the freezer and back into the sous vide at a later date
