With a belt-driven motor and lubricated carriage, the Gourmet ES Slicers are surprisingly quiet and smooth to operate - features similar to the commercial-grade slicer I used to work with.Ĭoming with a replacement belt and built-in sharpener, the Gourmet ES Slicers are built to be long-lasting and easy to maintain yourself. While any meat slicer worth its weight should be able to accommodate both thick and thin slices, what sets these slicers apart for us is their ability to hold fine tune adjustments - many competing lines will feature a clunky adjustment between general thickness settings, while the Gourmet ES Slicers can hold even tiny adjustments easily. Prefer thicker cuts for salami or soppressata? A simple adjustment of the thickness knob on these units have got you covered. Want to slice capicola or prosciutto so thin it's almost transparent to achieve that authentic “melt in your mouth” texture? These slicers have got you covered! While most meat slicers available for the home market struggle to achieve anything below a 2mm thickness, these Gourmet ES Slicers can execute even, paper-thin shaved slices.
The biggest strength of these slicers comes in their accuracy, with the adjustment knob able to accommodate both large and fine adjustments in slicing thickness. Pros - What makes these slicers some of the best available? The 195ES, 220ES, 250ES and 300ES all feature both a ring guard and hand guard to ensure safe operation. The hardened stainless steel blades are designed to hold their edge and stay sharp, and the units all come with built-in sharpeners for easy upkeep. Made of heavy duty hardened anodized aluminum, the Gourmet ES line offers four models ( 195ES, 220ES, 250ES and 300ES), with the slicers ranging in blade size from 7 inches to 12 inches, getting progressively more powerful as they get larger.Īll four models of Gourmet ES Slicers operate at 300 rpm, are belt-driven, offer a permanently lubricated carriage, and feature a removable carriage and blade for easy, thorough cleaning.

Gourmet ES Series Semi Automatic Meat Slicers - The SpecsĪt their core, the Gourmet ES Slicers are professional-caliber meat slicers scaled down for varying levels of home use. When given the chance to work with the 195-300ES Slicers for a possible review article, I jumped at the chance.
Though it’s been years since I’ve last set foot behind a deli counter, I’m fortunate enough to still work with meat slicers, prep equipment and food machinery, albeit in a (very) different context. Running the slicer behind this small deli counter, rapidly slinging inch thick slabs of ham loaf and bologna shaved so thin you could (almost) read through it (on a good day), I quickly learned that a sharp blade and steady carriage is the difference between a beautiful deli slice and a chunky, half-shredded bologna massacre. This deli, however, catered to a community that had a deeply rooted love, not for your typical deli fare such as salami, proscuitto, or even roast beef - no, the community I worked within loved salted ham loaf and bologna with a passion that might seem unreal to those who have never had the pleasure of visiting Canada’s (far) east coast. Years ago, I worked at a shop that offered a small deli off to the side. Strapped for time?
