So my meat slicer finally died. I was looking at some jerky slicers. I really only used the slicer for jerky so something easier would be ideal. Anyone use one? What's the good, bad?
I never even knew such a thing existed...reddit people say the weston one is recommended.. https://www.reddit.com/r/jerky/comments/118egt0/can_anyone_recommend_a_solid_jerky_slicer_similar/
I bought a Weston from Costco a couple months ago. It was about $90 if I remember right and it does fine. I considered buying one of the better slicers for around $300 but I couldn't justify it since it will only get used occasionally. Plus with buying from Costco, I figured if it is junk it is an easy return. It has done fine for me so far.
I order my biltong from this place in TX. The bison is f'ing awesome, I highly recommend. I don't know if this is a little beyond what you are looking for..... https://landofbiltong.com/product/claasens-electric-biltong-slicer-0-25kw/
At first I was thinking this was a suggestion for a new name for someone on the BBS with an interesting story for the name.
I went down to Boca with ‘toe and he kept wanting to hang out at the over 55 communities. So I finally gave in because who doesn’t like bingo? we head over at 9 am and he picks me up in his white ‘92 corvette and he’s wearing a banana hammock, white new balance and 4 gold chains and that’s it. Okay, whatever, he’s always been into his own thing and these are the ages of acceptance and shit. So off to the community we go and when we pull up there’s a sign next to the gate that said “toe parking only.” Shit is getting weird but, wtf, let’s see how this plays out. into the pool area we go and there’s 30 some older ladies in various shades of oncoming skin cancer and a few older dudes dressed just like ‘toe. we walk over to where everyone is and all the ladies yell out “toe!” Shit is getting weirder. I mentioned the ladies were tan? I guess I said various levels of skin cancer? You had a few tanned to the level of brown leather. There were a few who looked like baseball mits. Then there was one, a skinny one who resembled Skeletor who ‘toe immediately shot over to and they started grinding on each other. She was a white GMilf or maybe a GGMilf who, after spending 6 decades in the sun was the color of beef jerky. He turns to me, said “hold my N/A beer” and off they went to do what I don’t want to know. Sooo, that’s why I started calling him “Jerky Slicer!”
and when you go to the retirement community party you'd better not have anything to do for a few days after because they rage hard! They only have a few days, months or years left on this earth so they are going to enjoy it. Be careful of the "skittle bowl" and don't take anything from it. It might be blood pressure meds! It might be Viagra! It might be stool softener! It might be horse tranquilizers! but most likely it's all of those and more. So, you might be tripping balls from the tranquilizers, with a giant boner, about to shit your pants!
damn. This is my kinda jam. If they had some blow, ludes, ketamine and X then it would be a regulation party.
