Anybody got a rec for a decent/good vacuum sealer? Got one years ago and never did my wet meats (fish & deer) that good and looking to upgrade. Nothing special and not looking to break the bank. Want to be around the $200 range.

For wet meats you are gonna want a chamber vac sealer. Look at Vevor. Might be a little pricier than you wanted but wayyyyy better than a Food saver.

I'd go at least 10"X13" for bag size

Looked at those but man they are bulky. Caught some tuna recently and used my dad’s sealer, old school cabelas one, that wasn’t chambered and did great.

Just make sure it's a chamber style. They are far superior to the alternatives.

I put the cuts on a piece of parchment paper and freeze before vacuum sealing. Don't have to worry about liquid getting sucked out.

They no longer make his brand/model anymore. Was a Cabelas. Wasn't sure if anybody had any experience with ones not chambered, but seems like they are the way to go

Get a chamber vacuum sealer and don’t look back. If you do any kind of fishing regularly it’s a game changer. Moisture will no longer be a problem, you can literally seal up a bag of water. Anytime we make a gumbo or any type of soup the leftovers get vacuum sealed now.


Vevor probably the best value. I have a Cabela’s brand and it’s been awesome. You will have to get different bags. Mine doesn’t like the textured bags and I have to use smooth bags.

Costco sells a good one. I think it’s 400.
