Jerky and Snack Stick Cutter

[Cody Wiese 0]

I designed and 3d printed a plastic block to aid in jerky and snack stick cutting. I screwee In the pictures below I am cutting round hamburger jerky I dehydrated. 3d prints are not food safe, so will need to coat with epoxy or make of solid plastic, but wanted to test it first. It works really good on summer sausage too! It speeds processing up greatly and makes all perfect lengths!



Below is how many I can cut at once.

All nice and uniform.

I bought bags that line a 5 gallon bucket. After blotting the excess oil off with a paper towel, I dump it into these bags. I let the jerky cool amd then refrigerate for a day to let the moisture equalize before sealing. Helps get rid of the sharp points that puncture bags.

Meant to say I screwed the block to boards that are covered in plastic. That way I can change lengths until I figure out what I want for lengths.

Cody Wiese 0 very nice having it all the same size makes for easier vacum sealing

Cody Wiese 0 nice idea. I like being set up to cut several pieces without having to move the meat. That is way faster than cut, move, cut…like I am currently doing.
