What thickness meat will this do?

It will do about a one inch piece of meat. My problem with it is the knives are to far apart to really do a good job. You have to run the meat through to many times to get the tenderness you may be looking for.

I haven't tried to see how thick but I have sliced roast beef paper thin. So far this slicer is perfect for my use I would not recommend it for a deli but for any home use it is great.

I couldn't find my husband's little tool that would measure the thickness of the steel, but I think it is more like 1/8 of an inch thick. We use this bucket for milking and it is working beautifully. The cow has kicked it and no dents. The only complaint I might have is the way the handle is attached. It may or not become a problem in the future.

I don't know. I gave this to someone as a gift. I do know that it slices meat excellent.

this is a great product and no the thickness is not adjustable but you cut the meat the size you want just not bigger than an 1 1/2 inches and you can order parts from the manufacturer but so far not needed

We mostly use it on thick pieces of meat. Our experience with the insertion length is about the same.

I have used it on bulk lunch meats and block cheese. Cut both, it is not fast but I am quite happy with the purchase. I would suggest placing soft items in the freezer for 15-30 minutes to firm them up. I found this made the slicing easier.

The thickness is a little less than a dime. It may not be big enough for 5 lbs of food but it would hold the weight, it was worth the money.

Yes! I've used it as a marinade on thinly sliced beef. Use a "tougher" meat.....not one that is marbled with fat!

It's pretty thick. I've never measured it but it's substantial. The blade edge isn't all that though. If you're not doing tough tasks it will be fine and mine came razor sharp. I messed up the edge pretty bad butchering deer. I would have expected better.

It depends on how thick the cut of meat is as well as how dry you want the jerky. Thin cuts take less time and get "crispier." We make dog treats all the time & do different chicken thickness but 1/4 thick is good. It dehydrates at 160 degrees for about 4-55 hrs. Then you cook it in the oven for 10 min to make sure the bacteria is killed.

You adjust the thickness of the burger by adjusting the wing nut under the "Push" plunger as shown. This is sort of the stopper for the plunger. Also, you can adjust the thickness by the amount of ground meat you put in.Hope this helps !

I don't know the exact thickness, but it seems to be about 2 times thicker than regular Saran Wrap. I used it to wrap baked goods to give as holiday gifts. It worked really good for that purpose.

Hmmmm, I think it would work for meatloaf but it's a pretty big pan so I don't think it would be very thick.

I honestly can't say, yet. I used it to slice & core some granny smith apples, twice, to sauté in a bit of butter & cinnamon sugar. It was automatically perfect for my task, so I haven't tried to adjust. The slices were maybe 3/8" thick.

I just measured the depth of mine and it is 7/8." 1/2 lb of meat seems pretty hefty, I usually do 1/3 lb patties and they are pretty thick. Any more meat than that and your patties will almost look like balls when they're done cooking, due to the shrinkage. I usually flatten mine out after I remove from the press, so that they will fit the bun better.I've also written a review where I describe my process, which prevents the press from coming into contact with the meat.

You can make them as thick or think as you like. The thickest, if you fill to the top, would be 1 inch. If you want thinner patties, you just use less meat and don't fill all the way to the top.
