Still dipping in to the McDonald book. The recipe for chicken cholent (sous vide) has me quite intrigued. That is except for the chickpeas or the offered substitution of white beans. 
In my life I see Sous Vide as being very attractive as a way of cooking a complete meal.
Reading the recipe more closely ..... Hmmmm. Seems like one of those "just because you can...." By the time you are all finished the pre-prep you might as well just shove it in the oven from what I can see.
