Hosting Christmas dinner can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. With the right tools and a little planning, you can serve a restaurant-quality meal without spending the whole day in the kitchen.
One of the best secrets top chefs use is sous vide cooking – and the Typhur Sous Vide Station makes it easier than ever for home cooks to achieve this technique.
Why Sous Vide is Perfect for Christmas Dinner
Sous vide means “under vacuum” in French. You seal food in a bag and cook it in a precise water bath at a steady low temperature. The result? Meat that’s perfectly cooked edge-to-edge, juicy turkey, tender beef, and flavorful vegetables – every single time.
Here’s why the Typhur Sous Vide Station is a game-changer for your holiday table:
- All-in-one design: No need for separate containers, vacuum sealers, or bulky equipment.
- Huge 13-quart capacity: Cook a whole prime rib, turkey breast, or multiple dishes at once.
- Built-in vacuum sealer: Seal bags in seconds right at the station.
- Super accurate temperature control (±0.1°C): Never overcook expensive cuts again.
- Wi-Fi connectivity: Control everything from your phone while you wrap gifts or greet guests.
Plan Your Christmas Menu Around Sous Vide
A stress-free Christmas dinner starts with a smart menu. Here are crowd-pleasing dishes that shine when cooked sous vide:
- Perfect prime rib or beef tenderloin
- Juicy turkey breast (white meat that stays moist!)
- Honey-glazed carrots and Brussels sprouts
- Creamy mashed potatoes (cooked sous vide with butter and garlic)
- Silky crème brûlée or chocolate pot de crème for dessert
Step-by-Step: Your Christmas Dinner Timeline
2–3 Days Before Christmas
- Season your prime rib or turkey breast generously with salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs.
- Vacuum seal using the Typhur Sous Vide Station’s built-in sealer.
- Store in the fridge – the seasoning will penetrate deeply for better flavor.
Christmas Morning
- Fill the Typhur Sous Vide Station with water.
- Set the temperature (example: 133°F / 56°C for medium-rare prime rib).
- Drop in your sealed bags – go enjoy the morning with family.
3–4 Hours Before Dinner
- Add side vegetable bags (carrots at 183°F / 84°C for 1 hour).

30 Minutes Before Serving

- Sear quickly in a hot pan or with a torch for a beautiful crust (30–60 seconds per side).
- Warm plates and finish sides.
Right Before Serving
