Hi Shawn F. I just posted a response for the advantages of combining both Sous Vide and Smoking to bschuster. I'm having so much fun cooking Sous Vide and trying new things, both sweet and savory.The purpose for the refrigeration period was for convenience only; sous vide during the week and smoke on the weekend. Have fun!
View Instructable »The main advantages to combining the two methods, Sous Vide and Smoking, are 1) Increased level of tender and juicy meat and 2) Hands off cooking time on the Smoker. Using Sous Vide gently cooks your protein to a precise temperature, end to end, in its own juices. In this Instructable, the pork shoulder took a nice, long, vacuum sealed bath in 165 F water. My husband and I have had several "throw downs" where I have done my meat and finished it in the oven (for the bark), and he, total Smoker for the correct amount of time. Sous Vide scored higher on tender and juicy but couldn't come close to the awesome smoke flavor from Smoking. We have found that combining the two methods, especially with tougher cuts of meat, results in the absolute best flavor, texture, juicy, OMG tasting…

Altitude does have an influence with candy making. Usually the higher the altitude, the lower end of the temperature range for best results. For creamy caramels 238F should work great. My altitude is under 800 feet; I poured my caramels at a solid reading of 239F using an instant read thermometer as backup for my optimal final temperature.

Correct! Take 15-20 minutes to slowly add the chocolate milk mixture to the boiling sugar. I can’t for wait for you to try them😃

I really like the taste of this caramel recipe and think it would make fantastic turtles and caramel apples. You are right, the caramel temperature would need to be changed. More for the caramel apples, say 248-250. The turtle candy caramels right around 240. Enjoy!!

Hi caitd3!I get the cellophane wrappers off Amazon. They’re the 5x5 inch size. There should be a direct link to these in the instructable . In the past I have tried both the wax paper and the cellophane. I ended up liking the cellophane, but the wax candy wrappers are a good alternative. It has been a crazy humid summer! Your idea of the cold oven was great. Maybe could pop them in the fridge an hour or two right before you cut. I think you’re right about the humidity affecting the softness of the caramel. The taste is still amazing. I’d have fun with your liquor additions. The alcohol is cooked out, but the notes of flavor are present. Honey bourbon, Gran Mariner... Yum!!
