Did you use a slicer or just have a very steady hand in cutting perfect looking slices.

Great job

I've got the Chefs Choice 610 slicer.  So far I'm happier with it then I would be without it but that's about it.  The more I use it the more frustrated I get.  Unless the meat is nearly completely frozen it tends to go down between the holding tray and the blade and create a "flap" of extra meat.  Personally I think the gap between the blade and the tray that slides it too big, the blade turns too slowly and it's only a little bit better than doing it by hand.  Someday I'll have a big commercial style one or something when the right deal comes around.

I can't wait to try bacon.  The wife and I are big fans of applewood bacon form the store so that is the first thing to try on my list.

WRT the slicer, I'm open to suggestions for a decent one.  Also want a vacuum sealer.  Any thoughts on makes/models for these 2 items?
