I've been getting into butcher tiktok lately, and got a hankering to buy a deli meat slicer because making roast beef at home looks fun.  Mrs. DQ rolls her eyes at this and (understandably) thinks it will just be something we use once, and then will perpetually live in our basement.  Honestly, I think there's a good possibility of that too.

So we made a deal, I will make roast beef the old fashioned way (and slice it thin with a knife) five times.  If, after the 5th time, I still want a meat slicer, I will get it.  Do any of you Cats buy big hunks of meat and slice it into cuts yourselves?  Any other homemade roast beef heads in here?  Let's chat!

Unless you are a knife sharpening wizard, I highly recommending putting the meat into the freezer until it is almost frozen to assist with the hand slicing/shaving.

When it comes time to buy a slicer, go the commercial route.  If new commercial is out of budget, look at restaurant auction sites and so on.  I have returned no less that 4 deli slicers purchased from box stores.  They are garbage.

TY for both pieces of advice.

I do this with steak when I'm making jerky and it makes all the difference.

Of course there is salt in that ice. How else would it work?

No idea either way!

Rock salt the hell out of that operation. Mrs 8 will learn where I dumped that in the yard in a couple weeks when the grass dies.

Thanks Tom, you have inspired me to make some homemade vanilla for my boys 3 year birthday party in a coupe weeks.

[BIG APPLE CAT]

we use our NINJA CREAMI to make home made ice cream. Does it "technically count" as "legit home made ice cream?" I dunno, probably not, what do i look like a home made ice cream aficionado? But anyway its always ends up delicious. so, suck it haters.

FIL used to do a similar setup to toms but with a hand crank.  Cranking that beast would really put some hair on your chest.

Looks awesome. My folks always break out the White Mountain for our July 4 cookout. It is the hand-cranked version.

Chicken stir fry. Made the sauce with a habanero garlic olive oil, mango habanero vinegar and some worcestshire sauce. Add some diced jalapeños and cilantro and it has a really nice kick.

Pro tip,

Cook the veggies seperately than the scrambled eggs and then add together on the plate

[pissclams]

proer tip- don’t cook the veggies at all and also don’t buy them
