Not sure of the brand my mom bought, but it was one of the common pre-sliced varieties of the time.
I have had the weston pro 2300 for about 2 years now and use it for everything. It can use 15 inch wide bags so you can put a full packer or butt in them. Also cheaper than when I bought it. Down to $399 right now. It's a solid investment and made to make seal after seal without a cool down period. Pretty large though so keep that in mind.
Yeah I need a smaller unit as my apartment has tiny counters lol.. looking at thisI have had the weston pro 2300 for about 2 years now and use it for everything.

Never used that one but has great reviews. Just keep in mind that most lower wattage ones require about 1 minute between seals. Also look for one where you can replace the heat strip. Makes repairs easier without having to buy a whole new unit.Yeah I need a smaller unit as my apartment has tiny counters lol.. looking at this

Congrats on getting one. It's a game changer.It’s on the way… 112.00 lol
I just won’t be able to use the damn thing tomorrow since I work Sunday -Monday nights.. I’ll have to refrigerate these leftovers until Tuesday am… smh ..Congrats on getting one. It's a game changer.
It will be fine still. The wevac and vacfresh brand of bags have served me well over the years. Some brands don't hold up well but those have held up very well for me. I have used all the sizes and only had maybe 5 bad bags out of the hundred plus I've usedI just won’t be able to use the damn thing tomorrow since I work Sunday -Monday nights..

Actually I just remembered, I only work 6 tomorrow night so I can come home at 1 and seal away lolIt will be fine still. The wevac and vacfresh brand of bags have served me well over the years.

Well, she agreed to share “most” of her recipe. Actually pretty simple; diced Yukon Gold potatoes, chopped onions and bacon (a copious amount) sautéed with her special blend of herbs and spices which I know contains salt, pepper, granulated garlic, thyme and “some other things”—her words.Any chance seeing what goes in your wife’s Bear Hunter Potatoes?
Would you be willing to share your meatloaf recipe? I’ve tried a couple of different ones and they’ve taken me on a journey to find “something else”. Any help is greatly appreciated.Since it warmed up to the positive side of zero yesterday, we cooked meals for the week. Rotisseried a chicken for jambalaya, smoked meatloaf, and tater tot casserole...

Looks delicious.Smoked pork tenderloin for dinner tonite. Marinated the loins overnight in my own marinade, then put them in the RT-340 at 180F (Low) for 1-1/2 hours. Raised the temp to 250F for the final hour and pulled the loins at an internal temp of 144F. Rested them for 20 minutes before carving.

My “better half” did her famous (at least in our family) “Bear Hunter Potatoes” and some steamed broccoli. Good eats! And, plenty left for some pork loin sandwiched tomorrow.
