In 2021 I turned 7.5 pounds of pork roast into canned seasoned pork with the idea that I could heat it, drain off the juice and wrap it in a tortilla. They were tasty. Today I used the last of them. But I wanted to test out making tortillas with a different flour than I normally use so as a backup I made rice. Tortillas have some scratch made chili powder for color and flavor. Rice is turkey stock instead of water. I think I like this better because I get to keep all the juice.

    Definitely cheaper. I’ve done countless birds on this thing. Not sure what you are butchering but this is a little narrow so I wouldn’t want to do anything bigger than a goose. Then again Harbor Freight has them so cheap you could get two for $400 and put them next to each other. Just don’t install the vice on one or both of them.

    Definitely quieter than stainless tables.

      Well, if I have a deer, I usually bone them out on the hook. Moose or elk, I usually do the primals and steak them on the bandsaw and then work on them inside. So a 24x48 surface works fine.

      Don’t have a Harbour Freight here but I might see what I can find from our usual suspects.

      Thanks for the idea.
