Meal prepping is no longer just a fitness trend – it’s become a lifestyle for busy families, health-conscious individuals, and small food businesses alike. With people juggling packed schedules and rising food costs, preparing meals in advance is one of the smartest ways to stay on track with healthy eating goals. And when it comes to making meal prep easier, tastier, and more efficient, sous vide cooking is leading the way.
At Beak & Johnston, we’ve embraced sous vide not only for its ability to deliver restaurant-quality results, but also for its value in helping people eat better without spending hours in the kitchen. Whether you’re prepping for the week or building a small meal delivery business, sous vide is your secret weapon for success.
Sous vide – French for “under vacuum” – is a method where food is vacuum-sealed and cooked in a water bath at a precisely controlled temperature. This slow, even cooking process locks in moisture, preserves nutrients, and enhances natural flavour – all while allowing you to cook in bulk and store safely.
Here’s why it’s a game-changer for meal prepping:
No more dry chicken breasts or overcooked veggies. Sous vide ensures proteins and vegetables are cooked evenly and to the exact doneness you want – every time. It’s ideal for lean meats like chicken or turkey that can easily dry out with other methods.
Once your food is sealed and in the water bath, there’s no need to stir, flip, or monitor. This frees up your time to prep other meals, run errands, or just relax – knowing your food is cooking perfectly.
Cook multiple portions at once, chill or freeze them, and reheat as needed throughout the week. Sous vide makes it easy to prep ahead while keeping food fresh and flavourful for days.
Because food is cooked in its own juices at lower temperatures, more vitamins and minerals are retained compared to high-heat methods like roasting or frying.
We make sous vide meal prep even easier with high-quality, ready-to-heat sous vide meats, plus equipment like vacuum sealers and circulators for home and small business use. Our range includes fully cooked proteins like tender chicken breasts, pulled pork, beef brisket, and lamb shanks – perfect for mixing and matching in your weekly meal plan. By using our pre-cooked sous vide range, you save time and effort while still enjoying premium-quality meals. And for those who like to prep from scratch, our sous vide circulators and vacuum sealers offer all the tools you need to cook like a pro at home.
