Simple Sous Vide Strip Steak Recipe

Strip steak is the general name for a whole slew of similar cuts such as top loin strip, New York strip, Kansas City strip, top sirloin, top loin, and shell steak. Strip steaks are a tender cut that have nice marbling but are still more lean than a ribeye or chuck steak.

For the temperature, you can pick the doneness that you prefer, my starting recommendations are usually 125°F (51.6°C) for rare, 131°F (55.0°C) for medium rare and or 141°F (60.5°C) for medium.
