Overview
A motorized grinder unit drives meat through a medium or coarse cutting plate, while a pusher feeds the tube and stores the accessories inside. Cuisinart runs it from one on and off switch with a reverse feature, and sausage attachments let it fill links as well as grind.
Simple controls and a fast motor make it easy to grind a few pounds for chili, meatloaf or sausage in one session. Texture choice stops at medium and coarse, and the description mentions sausage attachments that the included parts list leaves out.
Who it's for
Weekend cooks making their own burger blends, chili meat or breakfast links get a simple machine with few parts. Large volume processing and recipes that call for a fine grind are outside what the included plates cover.
Pros and cons
- Single switch with reverse for simple operation
- Medium and coarse plates included
- Pusher stores the accessories
- Sausage attachments for links and regular sausage
- No fine grinding plate included
- Sausage tubes missing from components list
- Dishwasher safety of parts not listed
- Heavy for frequent cupboard storage
Performance notes
Throughput depends on the motor and on meat that is cold and cut into strips the pusher can feed without packing. Plate choice sets texture, coarse for chili and medium for burgers and meatballs. The reverse feature backs material out when the feed clogs.
