Is it safe to vacuum pack meat, freeze it, defrost it in the fridge and then cook it sous vide (while in the same vacuum pack)? Does it increase the risk for botulism poisoning?

I had some technical issues with Wordpress and as I am not a technical guy, I have to wait monday for a friend to help me set it up properly. I will let you know when it's ready.

I'm not trying to hijack people from this one, which I'm reading all the time, just an addition to the Sous vide community. www.fiftyfourdegrees.com, it's in english, but I'll translate in french which can be access through: www.cinquantequatredegres.com. And Jean-Francois, Keep up the good work, I love your blog. Merci Don’t want to be a pest, but I just wanted to let people know

Anyway, this test illustrates that the electricity consumption is high during the pre heating phase (same when you are heating water in a pot) and very low energy is needed to stabilize the temparature (the equivalent of 0.33€ per day).

You can try an other experiment with SousVideMagic/Rice cooker, you will be more astonished on how much energy you can save when compared with an immersion circulator method. Great experiment!
