Can you use this blad to slice cooked meat? Will this blade work?

I ordered it. Its not good for meats. You are better off with a real meat slicer. I tried with semi frozen and non frozen meats and half of the meat was chopping into bits, others were sliced. The slices did not look pretty.

Absolutely! Just be careful. The slicing blade is so sharp and effortless to use, you will be through a potato before you realize it. You'll have the potatoes sliced and frying in half the time than if you used a knife.

Unfortunately, I have not used the slicer to slice anything. But my husband used to do jerky and he said he used a chef's knife on meat that was partially frozen. You may want to check out You Tube to see if someone else has tried doing what you are proposing.

We typically use steak knives but depending on the cut of meat, they would work. The filets and better cuts should be fine.

no. It it will tenderize meat like a cube steak.I guess you could chop it up into bite sized pieces after you tenderize it.Hope this helps.....Jim

No, not really. Meat requires a very sharp blade and although the blades in the machine are sharp, they're not that sharp. It works great for making ground beef with the cutting mixing blade, but for those deli slices, you are better off with a machine made for the job. Just search Amazon for "deli slicer" or "meat slicer."

I found that the only thing it was useful for was very thin cuts like lunch meat. Mine was used once..... I only seem to use my serrated blade.

No, I have never tried that. I do think it would cut through meat as the blade is very heavy and sharp.

Yes no problem it would work great for that. I've used mine for a long time now and no other wire cutter could stand up like this slicer. I would buy it again

I have not sliced meat yet. I use it primarily to slice cheese and it works great.

It work as well as any knife for those tasks. It's design however, makes it super for slicing foods like cheese which tend to stick to the blade while cutting. So for me, that is what I use mine for. Great on fresh mozzarella.

I use it to slice my homemade cheese, and it works well for me. You have to go slower than with meat, but it does slice well.

We have used this machine to "cube" cuts of steaks. We run the meat through a second time, which makes it even more tender. I expect you could do stew meat with it. It may work with smaller pieces of meat. Might be worth a try.'

I haven't tried it, but I would think that if you cut the meat into bite size pieces it could work. It is very powerful!

I haven't used this model, it was a gift...but the previous model called a Happy Bwby Food Grinder, left little to nothing when the plunger reached the blade. If you are doing really tough, dry meat, you might have a little problem. I chopped any meats us tiny and incorporated with a vegetable.

It might, but I wouldn't consider this the best tool for the job. For one thing, the handle is long and designed to work on the ground. I guess you could put your steak on a plate and sear it on the floor? I don't eat a lot of meat but that can't be the best way to go about it.

No it has worked fine for slicing about a pound or two of meat at a time. That's all I need it for. I love mine!
