Nevertheless, I thought that was pretty cool. But would it work for steaks? I've been wondering if a tight wrapping is also necessary to keep the juices in while the steak is under heat.

I think that's the idea behind using a sealer. The pressure from the vacuum is important. Plus, you don't want things to float in the pot otherwise the top won't get cooked.

I'm definitely going to try a custard and I think in a jar would be the right way to do it.
