Thread: meat head ???s

When you guys make your meat heads...What kind of head base do you use?? and I have noticed some use a spread for the meat to adhere. Do you need a spread? thanks for the input in advance hope everyone is enjoying this october thursday!!!!!!

I'm doing a meat head for the first time this year. I have a plastic skull that I plan on using for the base. I also wondered the same thing about a spread. I think the meat would stick just fine without anything, but I'll have some cream cheese on hand just in case

awesome missmandy !! Where did you get your skeleton plastic head? Is it just one you could use for decor

Yup, just a regular ole decoration. I had one already from one of those 5 piece skellies that you stick in the ground...ya know the ones, it comes with 2 arms, 2 legs and a head lol. I never actually stuck it in the ground, so I figured it would be ok to use....of course I'll still wash it though after being in storage and all. I did just buy another plastic skull from CVS for 4.99....think I may use that one instead cuz it's one solid piece (the original one I have has a movable jaw and I don't know it that will mess up the 'design' of the meat head). Check Walmart though....I saw a skull for 3.99, but I didn't check to see if it was plastic or foam.

clean the skull and layer your meat, it sticks to itself..............

ah perfect I have a skull like that! we will experiment w/ the meat!! Thanks you guys!

i'm using a pretty big vampire skull ( http://www.target.com/p/Large-Vampir...e/-/A-13488162 ) and I will use the cream cheese spread to hold the slices on. around the base of skull i'll put veggies and some ruffled lettuce....sort of like an elizabethan ruff.

very nice! i love the eliz ruff!

Here is my "ham head". The head is actually an animated candy dish; it is sound activated. The eyes move and it talks and makes spooky noises. We just layer the ham on it, like Obcessedwithit said, it sticks to itself. Last year was the first time that we did this, both at home and at my work party. It was so creepy that nobody would eat it! LOL

Teresa- I have that same candy server, never though of using him for a meat head, cool twist on the idea
