OISU8P Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I tend to buy a lot of deli meat and have decided to buy a home slicer and whole deli meat to save on time and costs. I know when I buy boiled ham that is sliced from the grocery store, they say it is fresh for about a week and should be thrown out after that. I do not believe they go through a whole ham between the week to week that I bought some. Does anyone know how long something like a whole ham will last when not sliced? I appears they wrap it and put it back and just slice of a little and throw away before making the slices for my order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) 7 days sounds about right once the vacuum package is opened (I worked in my aunt's deli for a short time). The first couple of slices that are cut are to verify the thickness and/or to remove a part that might be a little dried out.

OISU8P Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 Thanks Larry. Wes, sorry about posting that here. I have been trying to find this out via searches for some time with no real answer. Figured I would give a shot on the community here since it is so large. By the way, looks like delimeatreview.com is available. Also, delimeatreview.org is available in case Kat and Kiwi want to start a site for this.
