Jumped the Gun! Pre Black Friday Amazon Deals.

Stlsportster · Nov 19, 2018

So I’m checking out the pre Black Friday deals on Amazon this week and there is a deal on an item I’ve been watching.

It’s a non serrated blade for a Chefs Choice slicer I’ve been eyeing. So the extra blade is normally $37.50 on sale for $17.64.

Course I don’t have the slicer either. Oh wait...that’s normally 195, down to 124.70? Ok. Let’s get both.

But wait. Didn’t I say I’d buy a good 12 inch granton blade slicer before I bought an electric slicer? Oh...ok. Twist my arm.

I’m sure I saved money. Right?

Like a good buzz, keep it going.

Yeah I’m waiting for the anova sous vide to drop to $69 like last year so I can get one

tom b · Nov 19, 2018

sounds like a deal to me....

Pig_Farmer · Nov 19, 2018

A bargain is only a bargain if you need it. It sounds to me like you needed them.

DefTaker · Nov 19, 2018

Thanks for the heads up! I've been looking at getting this blade for my 615 slicer as well!

Toys have started to arrive. I see jerky in my future.

As am I. I wonder if $99 is the best we're going to see this year.

Gotta get the Wifi only way to go.

electron_si · Nov 20, 2018

Yeah I’d like to have the WiFi after reading the reviews

Very nice

Stlsportster · Nov 20, 2018

Here are the results of the first use. Trimmed up a partially frozen 6 lb eye of round. Cut it down to fit the slicer tray. Set up to slice with the grain and at a 3 out of 20. Swapped the default serrated blade for the smooth one I ordered.

Easy to use. Nice even slices. There were a few funky slices if the meat was too thawed or uneven at the end. For the most part it ran smooth. I did have to basically disassemble to clean it.

Marinating now in the Owen’s BBQ Maple Jalepeno Jerky mix.

So far so good!!

Stlsportster · Nov 20, 2018

By the way. 10 minutes for 6lbs of meat from start to finish.

Joshw · Nov 20, 2018

Love using my slicer, and hate cleaning it. How is it to clean?

Stlsportster · Nov 20, 2018

Had to disassemble it to clean it, but it’s only like 4 pieces. All removable without tools, even the blade which you use a coin to turn.

Hand washed all the parts (aluminum, plastic, or stainless steel). Not too bad.
