A food processing system includes at least one receptacle containing a composition of water and insoluble solids, a centripetal force-based solid/liquid separator having an inlet, a solids outlet, and a liquid outlet, and a pump able to direct the composition from the receptacle to the inlet of the separator. The separator is configured to separate the composition into a solids stream including the insoluble solids and a liquid stream including water and to direct the solids stream through the solids outlet and the liquid stream through the liquid outlet.

The present technology relates to a poultry-processing machine designed to streamline and enhance the efficiency of poultry-processing operations. In some embodiments, the machine includes a chassis, a processing tub supported on the chassis, a motor mounted on the chassis or the processing tub, wheels rotatably supported on legs attached to or integral with the chassis, a handle extending upwardly from the chassis optionally above the top surface of the processing tub, a mounting plate supported on arms of the handle, and a control switch positioned on the mounting plate in electrical communication or (other communication) with the motor. In some embodiments, the handle is a multi-piece handle that can be separated into two or more pieces down to reduce the profile of the machine, which facilitates efficient packaging and storage of the machine. These features facilitate easier use and transport of the machine.
