A slicer device for slicing and removing a fleshy part of a watermelon surrounded by a rind comprising:
- a cutter piece having an outer surface and an inner surface;
- and
- a series of cutters of a thickness attached to the inner surface of the cutter piece spaced apart, connected to each other and arranged to form a pattern with openings, the openings defined by the cutters and the inner surface of the cutter piece for receiving and slicing the fleshy part of the watermelon from the rind.
A method of slicing and removing a fleshy part of a watermelon with a slicer comprising the steps of:
- removing a crown portion from a top and a bottom of the watermelon to expose the fleshy part of the watermelon and form a flat top portion and a flat top portion;
- aligning a slicer device comprising:
- a cutter piece having an outer surface and an inner surface;
- a series of cutters of a thickness attached to the inner surface of the cutter piece spaced apart, connected to each other and arranged to form a pattern with openings, the openings defined by the cutters and the inner surface of the cutter piece for receiving and slicing the fleshy part of the watermelon from the rind;
- and at least one support bar attached to the cutter piece;
- pushing the at least one support bar attached to the cutter piece of the slicer device through the fleshy part of the watermelon and the flat bottom portion of the watermelon in a straight, linear action without simultaneous rotation of the slicer device, to remove the fleshy part from the rind of the watermelon without cutting through the rind of the watermelon and slice the fleshy part of the watermelon into shaped pieces corresponding to the openings between the cutters and the openings between the cutters and the inner surface of the cutter piece.
