Pan frying on an induction stove has turned into a clusterfata for me. Baking is close I guess, I had no issues with turkey, but I had issues last time I tried to make a roast and I guess I'm just grabbing this to experiment with other cooking options.

Good to know it's not completely idiot proof though.
Sous Vide is a technique that takes many many hours, the worry is the meat in the center, not the outside (as with all cooking to be frank) searing the outside isn't going to help with that at all, unless you cooked it so long you completely make the sous vide part pointless.
