The path to a perfect steak starts …

Nice! I’m very happy with the results I get from Drybags. If I can ask, how did you seal yours, and with what? I’m having no luck getting a good seal, although the results are good. I’m still trying to get a bag to look like yours.

I use a simple FoodSaver 2222 from wally world. Probably the cheapest on the market.
But I needed a “test run” or two with the dryage bags. Getting these bags sealed properly is not too hard but also was not trivial.

I found that it worked best if I repeated the seal twice on each seam location, while applying pressure on the food saver
bar (that holds the bag in place while vacuum sealing). On each of the seams I applied the seal function of the food
saver twice to create a good bond. Between the seal applications you have to release the latch of the food saver and lift the bar, so it
takes a little practice to keep the bag from moving between the two applications.

There is a learning curve to the process.
