Automatic Meat Shredder
Our innovative and uniquely designed CircFood Carruthers Automatic Meat Shredder is a continuous flow machine with throughput exceeding 2,000 pounds (907 kg) per hour without the expense of intensive manual labor. This is our solution for a consistent “hand-pulled” look for beef, pork or poultry.Tabletop meat shreddersare available for smaller batches. The Shredder is designed to easily break down tough products such as cooked beef logs with the same efficiency as it does softer products such as cooked chicken breast. All mechanisms function via the shredder’s direct drive for increased efficiency and longer wear life.
