I know...weird. I have two commercial vacuum sealers, one of which is chamber sealer that's pretty large. I also have large grinder for processing venison. Anyone have recommendations on some sort of prep table that either has multi levels for storage, or drawers/cabinets in it? Thanks.

I'd imagine a restaurant supply store might have a big cart that could fit this need. I'm thinking one of those metal-top looking tables.

Would a tool work bench fill your needs?

Depends. Looking for ideas. Would prefer something with stainless top since I'll be working with food fairly often. I could always cover with foil but would rather not have to, but if the table makes sense then I could do that too.

Go to Webstaurant Store and do a search for prep stations:

So get a tool bench the size you want with the drawers you need, and a stainless steel tray to use as a work surface on top. Whether it is stainless steel or wood or just aluminum, you're going to be washing the top anyway, so I wouldn't let the surface be a deal breaker.

Our friends have a large "meat room" as they call it and use a large stainless table for the exact things your looking for as well. I believe they got it at Ace Restaurant supply, but I would have to double check. It has a shelf underneath as well for storage. I've seen similar tables at Sams as well just not as large.

Go find a local restaurant supply auction house, there's one in Houston that I've bought from.

They sell either new, or if patient, you can wait for an auction and get what you need cheap. I bought a 3 basin stainless sink for $100 and I use it for homebrewing. Best thing I've done for that hobby.

Then buy casters for it so it's easy to move around.

Which auction house did you go to?
