    What Food safe grease do you use for your meat slicer

    Hi all, I managed to find a Hobart 512 meat slicer for a hell of a deal. It seems to be greased up good but I want to get some before I need to lube it up again. What are you using and have you had negative or positive experiences with other products? Oh, and since a picture is worth a...
