Title: Slicer or Vacuum packer?
Post by: quadrafire on March 03, 2011, 01:04:16 PM: I am saving and will end up with both at some point, but gotta fill the cookie jar first!

have been making alot of BBB and CB, the slicer sure would be nice, But you guys are killing me with the vacuum packed meats.
