Skagg2000 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Hi fellow forumites, I've got 10 kg of bacon that will be ready for slicing in the next 7 days or so. Hand cut ends up with rashers that are a little to generous. Can anyone recommend / have for sale a slicer to do the job cost effectively?

Icefever Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I did slice when I first started, @Wade told me that it'll last longer and it's better to cut into blocks and freeze. I have got a electric slicer but hardly use it.... Also worth a read if you have not seen it yet?? Ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 There are two things that you need to do to stop this Chill the bacon slab before you slice Make the thickness of the slice a little thicker - increase the thickness by 1/2 a point until it no longer produces any "tails". It goes without saying that you need to ensure the blade is sharp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skagg2000 Posted August 9, 2020 Author Share Posted August 9, 2020 Thanks Wade, I'll bear this in mind when i try the slicer for the first time on the bacon next week Cheers n Gone Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
