Ngl I’ve never actually asked for meat from a deli worker. Why would this be so bad? Does it clog up the machine? Also who the fuck asks for shredded ham???

Well ham like this wouldn’t work great for shredding but ham that still has the grain would. Think of stuff that pulled pork can go well with like sandwiches, stews, or tacos

we get some damn good deli bacon. buy it like 20 pounds at a time when it goes on sale, toss it in the deep freeze in pound bags.

I always ask for it as thin as they can get without shredding it. It’s possible I’m hated, but that’s how I like my meat, and I can’t do it myself.

For ham, thats fine and very easy, its a solid piece of meat. For poultry or softer meats that can sometimes be problematic but still very doable. Chipped meat is the devil, wrenches the hell of out the shoulders for whoever’s using the slicer and probably damages the slicer a bit, as you have to use force to keep the meat and blade at the right angles.
So glad i dont work in a deli anymore lol
