You run the risk of overcooking pork loin when you sear it in a skillet because it’s prone to drying out. This sous vide method completely eliminates that worry since it cooks it in a low-and-slow, moisture-sealed environment. The end result is pork that’s juicy and tender that you can use as cold cuts for sandwiches all week long.
