I have a vacuum sealer. I buy large end prime ribs when on sale and cut it up into steaks. This year they are $5/lb at Krogers. I season, seal and freeze them until time to cook.
Now comes the tricky part. Once thawed, I place them in a 5gal pot with 3gal of water and TRY to maintain that at 140 deg for 90 minutes on the stove top. The more water in the pot, the easier it is to hold the temperature. Remove from bag, dry, season and brown on the Weber for a few minutes each side. They come out perfect all the way to the bone.
I just need to take it to the next level with a circulator so I don't have to nurse it for 90 minutes. The circulators I find are $200 and up. I guess I'll have to pay to play.
I haven't tried chicken breast yet because I'm unsure of a safe temperature. I believe I'll need a circulator to do chicken safely.
