Locally the price for roast beef deli cold cuts is $15/lb and that just isn't right. But what if it can be had for $2.99/lb? It can be.
Our supermarket had bottom round on sale for $2.99 so I bought some. Sous Vide tenderizes and cooks it and when it's done in the bath it gets torched to brown it and make it taste roasted even though it never roasted for even a minute. Thin sliced it's excellent roast beef.
If you can read a chart, set a thermostat, and open a water tap you can Sous Vide too. And what male doesn't like to play with fire? (Go ahead and pound your chest while making he man sounds.) All it takes is a Sous Vide water circulator and they are priced reasonably and can do far more than make roast beef for sandwiches. Give 'em time and maybe they'll be able to cut, split, and stack cord wood.
The roast beef I made is all consumed, but while the price was low I bought another 5lb'er and it's in the freezer, fully cooked, and just waiting to be thawed, torched, and sliced.
