I usually hand slice any more, even though I have a manual jerky cutter from cabelas as well as the bigger one that fits their larger grinder motor. I like mine on the thicker side most of the time, 3/8" is not uncommon, I also seem to like nice slabs of meat cut with the grain, over thinner narrower strips.
I have a 10" Berkel I got used, and am thinking of trying it.
So does anyone use a deli slicer and if you do do you partially freeze or just go at it unfrozen?
thank you.
