Well only took a few days from when I started the last discussion (Sunday) on what Weston to upgrade to for the 2600 to get here :biggrin1:. Arrived about 20mins ago and I've being doing a little work and starting dinner so the unit is still unboxed.

But more to come shortly!

Seems like an absolute unit. Got the 1st 16lb'er cut up into 4 chunks (pretty nice for a choice roast) and ran the 1st one through a test run and made a video. Pretty normal stuff.......

Nice!

I've had a Weston Pro 3000 for many years and it has been rock solid.

Had mine since 2021. Awesome unit! Just fyi, it does require replacing the foam sealers and the heating element on occasion (replaced the originals in mine a few months back).

I've been using my 2300 for 5 or so years and have been very happy with it. Enjoy!

Here's some more pics and another video of sealing up 4 racks of ribs I'll freeze and cook up at a contest in a few months. It does a great job. Maybe slightly overkill as I don't seal up anywhere near as much meat as I used to since I'm not cooking as often, but so far it exceeds all I need it to do. :-D

I'll have to bust out some sausage making soon. Haven't done that in a while and always sealed up a ton of meat when I did.
