Processing wild game has never been easier than with a NESCO Electric Food Slicer

There is nothing like fall when you’re a hunter. Hitting the woods to bow hunt deer or taking the dog out to flush a few ruffed grouse brings back that primal hunter instinct and connects you with nature. There is also the thrill that comes from bagging your game and serving your loved ones with the harvest you worked hard for.

NESCO knows how much effort it takes to get ready for a successful hunt. If you are like a lot of hunters, making sure you are prepared to process your game is an important part of it. After field dressing and skinning your game, taking the time to carefully cut up the harvest is where a NESCO Electric Food Slicer comes into play.

An Electric Food Slicer can be used on both raw and cooked meat. A little planning will go a long way in proper and safe processing to get the cuts of meat you prefer in the end.

Create perfect cuts of meat every time with a NESCO Electric Food Slicer

The NESCO FS-250 Electric Food Slicer can be used on pretty much every cut of the harvest whether it is for roasts, steaks, jerky, or lunchmeat. The motor is 180-watts, and the stainless steel blade is 8.7 inches, a powerful combination capable of cutting a wide range of meat types and sizes.

One thing we love to do is to take some of the raw venison roasts and cut them into 1/4 inch thick steaks using an Electric Food Slicer. Jerky can then be made by hand cutting those steaks into 1½ or 2 inch strips. Eating your own jerky in the field is a great way to bring the sport full circle. A recipe you won’t be able to pass up is Bloody Mary Jerky.

An Electric Food Slicer isn’t just used for big game. A pheasant cooked in a NESCO Roaster can be cut into perfect deli-thin slices for lunch meat. It could be used now or packaged using a NESCO Vacuum Seal Kit to retain the flavor and freshness longer.

There is a satisfaction in bringing your meat from field to table and NESCO takes pride in making that process easier and faster.

Some planning and advanced meal prep is one of the best ways to save time while still being able to enjoy a home-cooked meal this summer. NESCO’s Vacuum Seal Kit keeps meals already prepped fresh for longer, and makes organization easy.

Meal prep can be extremely helpful, and your future self will thank you. When you have a free day, cook up a week’s worth of meat to use for those busy summer days. Preserve it using NESCO’s Vacuum Seal Kit to keep your food fresh for the days ahead.

One of our favorite summer recipes is pineapple teriyaki marinade for chicken. This recipe is easy and delicious! Simply combine and mix the ingredients listed and let the chicken marinate in a Vacuum Seal Bag for at least half an hour. You can grill it immediately or keep it fresh using the Vacuum Seal Kit and enjoy it later in the week!

The perks to using NESCO’s Vacuum Seal Kit

The NESCO Vacuum Seal Kit comes with a cordless motor and vacuum pump along with five reusable vacuum seal bags to keep your food preserved for longer and eliminate freezer burn. The vacuum seal bags establish organization in your fridge or freezer, as they are easy to stack and take up minimal space. They are also perfect for sous vide cooking.

In addition, you get two 600 mL and two 800 mL vacuum seal storage canisters. These reusable containers are more secure and freezer-friendly than other brands, ensuring no freezer burn. These storage containers can also be used to keep food fresh longer, such as dehydrator fruit rollups. A charging base and wall adapter are also included with the Vacuum Seal Kit to make charging your pump as convenient as possible.

For additional bags, the vacuum pump works with NESCO Hand Held Vacuum Sealer Bags, models: VS-10HB and VS-11HB.

Time is saved for day-of cooking, and food lasts longer when using the Vacuum Seal Kit. With foods lasting longer, you save money and food waste is reduced, so it’s a win-win.
