We sous vide every scrap of chicken and pork that's cooked in my house. I sous vide a little on beef, though I still prefer black iron or charcoal there.

Disclaimer: I don't even attempt any kind of BBQ. I have no talent there.

Really trying to do some research on a grill/smoker combination. I'm kind of leaning pellet, but I would rather not spend $500 plus on something I'm realistically only going to use 2-3 times a month in spring and fall.

I think I'd be willing to try BBQ then. Yes, I've tried the 48 hour brisket water bath. It still sucks. You have to be able to smoke.

You can still use black iron or charcoal to sear the meat to get that flavor (Malliard effect) after sous-vide.

On a lark, I went and got the cheapest, toughest cut of meat I could find (don't remember what it was, asked the butcher for the ugliest least-popular cut he had). Trimmed most of the fat off seasoned it up, added a little olive oil and sous-vided for about 8 hours. Threw it in a cast-iron skillet just before serving, and it disappeared faster than a chicken running from a voodoo queen.

Give it a shot.

Also, fish and shrimp in the SV is flat-out awesome.
