Bacon slicer

That's the beauty (IMO) of Big Daddy Bezos' Online Flea Market.

I wouldn't do it, but I reckon you could just "Borrow" a slicer every time you need one and send it back when you get done with it.

Here is a commercial bacon slicer if you have unlimited funds! My son in-law couldn’t remember for sure what it cost.

It can be programmed to any size of thickness and slices a side of bacon in seconds.
This is the blade end and the machine keeps moving the slab till it is completed. Sounds like a Samurai sword once the blade gets spinning.

Okay, I used the new slicer on some eye of round for jerky. It worked pretty well.
I was not expecting the slices to fall behind the until on to the body an d just build up. Honestly, I had no idea what to expect. Isn't there supposed to be a tray or something the meat falls into?
Im new at this and if there are any tricks, I'm open for suggestions.

I’m glad it’s working for you. On these style of slicers with just a slight tip on the carriage the slices really need to be caught by hand, although you can just slice away but the slices will build up and eventually get caught up in the blade and go for a sling ride. More upper end slicers like Hobart or Globe have a carriage layed over much more and as a result the slices fall away from the back of the blade and a tray can be easily utilized. Not a deal breaker if you aren’t running a butcher shop or sandwich shop. For home use these style slicers do a great job, you just need to develop a rhythm in the slicing process to take the slices away. Don’t rush it. I can slice and stack 20# of bacon fairly fast.

As SmokinEdge says.... You'll have to catch it by hand when it falls of the back side of the slicer... Be careful not to get your hand up in there to close when catching the slices... Then stack them (kinda in order) on a trey or something as they come off the slicer... When done slicing you can go back through and restack for what ever size packs (vacuum sealed) you need....

I have a box of 5"x5" of parchment that I use to stack burgers, etc. I kinda guide the slices onto this paper. after it gets full, I remove it, then repeat.
