Just curious; what's the advantage of SVing chicken this way? |

Pete, The meat remains more succulent and tender by doing SV first. I will say it was some of the moistest fried chicken I've ever eaten. Amy |

Restaurant review in the morning paper featured a restaurant that prepares Crispy Berkshire Pork "sous vide". Sounded delicious. If it ever quits snowing, we'll go. Amy, you've really piqued my curiosity. fitzie |

Fitzie, Pork is an absolute natural for SV. I've done it and been really, really happy with the results. Amy |

Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but... How funny! A while back, I wanted to try the Ad Hoc fried chicken recipe, but having had bad luck with chicken that browned long before it was fully cooked inside, I decided to sous vide it first. It was very time consuming, but worked quite well. For what it's worth, I didn't care for the non-traditional lemon-herb flavor of the Keller brine, but the sous vide idea did cook the chicken perfectly. |

Yah, the ad hoc recipe definitely tends to have the problem (browning; the brine I very much like). I think the 'trick' is using quite small chickens (as they recommend) which can be difficult to get. Here Halal chickens tend to be very small so I use them. I'd be curious as to the size you used. And indeed fried chicken and SV go together very well. |
