I have a small vacuum sealer. I use it a lot but I would suggest spending a little money on one and get one that is a little heavy duty. My opinion

Weston Pro 2300 you will not regret it. Unless you're looking to spend the $$$ on a chamber vacuum sealer.

I doubt I can afford to spend $200+ on a vacuum sealer with all the other expenses of starting a new deer camp but thanks for the advice.

Anything food saver can't handle lots of seals at once. I have a Cabelas commercial grade vacum sealer and it makes my old foodsaver laughable.
Weston/Cabelas brand or nothing. |

I just ground a whole deer last weekend and did 80 packages with my lower end food saver. It overheated about every 15 packages. I'm looking to buy a new higher power one. Splurge a little and buy a good one, or wait till you can afford the good one.

I bought the best one Walmart sells a few years ago. Works great, money well spent.

I've been using a Foodsaver for almost 10 years. It isn't the best, but it's all I've known. Haven't used it much the last couple of years as I've switched to pressure canning most of my meat.
If I was buying again, I'd go with something from Cabelas or Weston. |

After my third "good" sealer died I bought the Weston Pro 2300. It flat out rocks. Others in your camp will benefit from it being there. Have each of them pitch in $25 and get it. You will not be sorry you did. |

I agree on the Cabela's commercial grade machine. Ours is a few years old now and it is just rock solid after sealing hundreds of fish fillets.
We originally bought one of the "affordable" Food Savers and is was an absolute piece of crap! Broke after one season of use and we threw it out. Bought the heavy-duty Cabela's model and it is great. |
