I and my kids are fond of cold meat sandwiches. I used to buy some cold meat cuts at a Yahoodi Key Dookan(kosher) , but the prices at that place are exorbitant.
So I bought a meat slicer and roasted a turkey and made a meat loaf. both of them turned out good but I was unable to get the kind of cuts they sell at those stores using that meat slicer.
What is the secret ? Anybody knows ? Is it that the meat has to be cold or chilled in refrigerator before slicing to get that perfect cut ?

Once TLK will make those cold cuts sandwiches for you , you will fall in love with this slicer .

Yep not bad for the price. It is handy thing for making those yummi cold cut sandwiches.

great, we make roasts at home too and wanted a good slicer as well..
my issue is less with yahoodi ki dukaan and prices but more with the nitrates and nitrites

spock, no need

Niksik

X2, I will get back at you someday

Waisey, I love cold meat sandwiches too. The problem is that I have no place to store such a bulky machine. And then I would have to clean up all the mess later! Hubby on the other hand, doesn't care about the logistics of all that, he's been trying to get one for the past few months. Somehow I've managed to distract him but this thread will revive his dreams.

Ok Niki, you said the same thing about that 5 dollars apple corer .. and after I bought it without telling you, you kinda loved that thing.

I am telling you, Meat slicer is the next best thing since the invention of slice bread .. no pun intended

I love cold cut sandwiches plus I want to slice my own steaks and not buy them from butcher. Desi butchers just dont know a jack about steaks.

Mirch

No it is not bulky. The home use kind is not as big as the store version. It is very compact.

And ya that Apple corer is also a cool gadget and must have.

X2

speaking of apple corer, have u guys seen the mango corer
now that is something

Niksik

Yes, I saw that too X2. Will get it...looks interesting!

Mirch

No I have not . But I am looking for some coconut corer. I do not know how they take the whole coconut out back home from its shell. I looked online no luck yet.
