Buck boiler?
« on: February 01, 2011, 06:38:35 AM »
I was wondering if anyone on this site is familiar with a product called the buck boiler? it is basically a bucket you plug into the wall and it uses electric current to clean the meat off your european mount. It claims you can do a head in 6-8 hrs without any scraping or picking. If it works like it says it would make euro mounts easier and cleaner. If anyone has used one of these or has a buddy that does i would appreciate some info. thanks!

I still havent found anything out about a buck boiler besides the reviews on the cabelas and the bass pro shops customer reviews. The reviews for it are either very good or very bad so not sure if its the thing to have or not. I tried to order one at cabelas in mitchell the other day but they dont carry them on hand and it was back ordered so they didnt know if or when they could get one. I am still curious if anyone one else has tried one of these?

I skin and try to get all the meat off that I can and then stick them in a large kettle and boil them with the propane burner.  I do this outside or in the garage with some ventilation and works just fine.  Then take the pressure washer, like at the carwash and give it a hood hose down.  Seems to work alright for me anyway.

That buck boiler looks like it would sure save a guy a lot of hassle.

That's how we have always done it also, usually with a turkey cooker and metal pails, which does work good, that buck boiler would save some work if it works like they say

I finally bought a buck boiler and so far we are very happy with it. We did six heads with it this weekend(you can fit two in at once) and they turned out great with very little scraping at all when we took them out, most of the meat just falls off. We had the heads pretty clean when we started but it claims you dont have to but it will take longer. We have two more heads to do with it and we will get our money out if it just from the propane we saved.
