Reddit mentions of Chef'sChoice Food Slicer (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

I looked it up, I actually paid $100, but it is still not a professional model by any means. Had pretty decent ratings on Amazon and at a price point I could afford.

I bought a small IKEA style bookcase to put on top of my fridge. It currently holds my [slicer](Chef's Choice 609 Premium Electric Food Slicer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000PRP288/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_6BSyyb2PDWAPV), my Kitchenaid mixer, my 9 cup food processor, my blender, and my Foreman grill.

It's great for cutting bacon

Found this on Amazon for $123 and has decent enough reviews.


Edit: This also seems pretty good for home use and is $100.

I noticed after you smoked it some of it was already getting a bit charred from the sugar. One thing you may want to try is rinsing it off before smoking it. This may remove a lot of the "flavor" with the salt, sugar, etc but it will make the belly nice and clean. If you want to rub some sugar on it maybe try dropping the temperature? I've only used sugar in my cure and let smoke do all the work.

For slicing, I picked up this slicer and the non-serrated blade. It really makes cutting the bacon quick. It's a bit of a pain to clean with all the curves and cut-outs but I can slice up 5lbs of bacon in 10 minutes.

In the time I've been making bacon the one thing I realized is that its "burn" point is far higher than that of store bought. So I usually have to dial it down just a smidge on the stove to prevent burning. I haven't made any in the oven yet so I can't offer a difference there.

I bought this one back in 2014. Works just fine for what I use it for; mainly bacon and ham. I caught it on sale for ~$70-80. You just need to go slow when slicing, and it helps to have your meat cold. Easy to clean.

To anyone looking for a cheaper alternative, i bought my mom this slicer Works great! My favorite thing to make so far is philly cheesesteaks by thinly slicing sirloin roast. Also, have you tried making potato chips with your slicer yet Jeffrey?

It is amazing so far, I am very happy with it. Now I just need to see how long it holds up but so far so good!

I'm sure you've looked into getting your own, they're not that expensive. https://www.amazon.com/ChefsChoice-609-Electric-Food-Slicer/dp/B000PRP288

Got the one in the link below back in 2016, it doesn’t look to be available anymore but maybe they have a new model. I only use it maybe half a dozen times a year but it was certainly worth the price.

I got mine off of amazon. It’s nowhere near the quality of a professional grade deli slicer but it does the trick.

This is the model I got.. I don’t buy nice clothes, get my hair and nails done, or go on fancy vacations but I will spend all my money on kitchen gadgets. That is a fact! To be honest, this is kinda cheap in comparison to what I’ve spent on other things. 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬

I’m a consumer whore!!

A stand electric slicer will save you time and money. It is an up front cost but you will save it back and more over time.

I honestly don't remember. My dad used to work maintenance in a retail store and picked it up for me one day for my meat adventures.

It seems they're on Amazon for a decent price. I'm not sure if that's the exact model I have, but it's the same brand and it looks identical.

It really is worth having. It's the only way to get sandwich meat as thin as I like (pastrami specifically is supposed to be cut very thin) and it's great for slicing for jerky as well. If you have anyone who cooks bread in your house it's great for pre-slicing it evenly.

I bought this one along with the non serrated blade a couple years back and it works well for me. Cost me about $100 for both.

Jerky is kinda time-consuming, but ridiculously easy.

I use a meat slicer and a fairly expensive dehydrator, but a sharp knife and warm oven will do the job, too.
(The oven is a bit of a hassle, though, so I would recommend a reasonably-priced dehydrator. The square-shaped models are more useful than round.)

I used Alton Brown's box fan & furnace filter method for a while, but it just takes sooo long. Even in my hot garage, it could take four or five days of drying, and I simply do not have that kind of patience where jerky is concerned.

Chefs Choice 609
Not too fancy but it gets the job done.

I've been looking for a meat slicer myself. I'm looking for something that can cut a semi-frozen steak into deli thin slices for cheese steak sandwiches. Using a knife just doesn't do justice. I've been looking at this one on Amazon

It seems a lot of people are content with it. It's a bit on the pricey side for a home slicer. They have slicer that cost less than 50 on amazon and apparently it's a piece of shit.

they have 3 models. 615, 610 and 609.


Both 609 and 615 come with stainless steel blade, while 610 comes with stainless steel serrated blade. I've been told serrated blades aren't as good at slicing deli thin. I'm not sure. But they do sell the blades separately. The main difference seems to be the size. It's too bad they don't give the power output of the motor.
