good flavor but tough. I use blade cuts for pot roast or stew meat. once in a while you get them tender enough to do as steak (pan fry, broil, grill) but not regularly and not much of a way to tell before trying.

ribeye is what I call a steak and it is for special occasions, t-bone and porterhouse in same class though I prefer ribeye. NY strip (the "textured," non-filet side of the t-bone) could be what you are looking for but need to watch for sales.

I know nothing about that water bath method, but that might work for the blade/chuck steak - I think Major Nikon is the expert for that.
