pre heat water bath with the Nomiku set at 58 degrees celsius or 136 fahrenheit

to set up water bath according to Nomiku’s directions the unit clips on the side of the container and should not be touching the bottom- fill the water to the appropriate level marked on the device

The steaks can be cooked in the water bath for 1 to 3 hours, ours were in for 2 hours - as suggested from chef steps website

Salt, pepper and garlic powder on both sides of steaks before putting in vacuum bags ( can use zip lock bags and do water displacement method as described on the Nomiku site)

cook in water bath for 2 hours

Pre heat the cast iron skillet to medium high or high heat just before you are going to remove the steaks form the water

Remove the steaks from the bags and dry them with paper towels

Heat the bacon grease on high in a cast iron skillet and sear each side of the steaks for 30- 45 seconds- remember your steak is already cooked to a perfect medium rare, searing just helps to create that crust and bring up the flavor of the meat.

Let the steaks rest while you fry eggs to your liking. Season the eggs with salt and pepper if desired. We fried them sunny side up. Serve immediately.
