Overview
This MEAT! branded grinder is a .5 horsepower electric meat grinder in the #8 size, shipping with three stuffing tubes, two stainless grinding plates for coarse and fine grinds, and a stainless stuffing plate. It's rated to produce up to 5.5 pounds of ground meat per minute.
- .5 HP motor
- 3 stuffing tubes included
- 2 stainless steel grinding plates
- Stainless steel stuffing plate for sausage work
Who it's for
Fits someone processing meat in real volume at home, like grinding a brisket or making sausage, who's outgrown a mixer attachment. Less suited to occasional small batch grinding or anyone wanting a lightweight unit to leave out on the counter.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
One buyer said the grinder worked without issues in daily use but noted it's heavy and not something to keep on the countertop. Another who upgraded from a KitchenAid grinder attachment said this is about 10 times faster, ground a whole brisket in under five minutes, and would recommend it to anyone shopping for a serious grinder.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Rated up to 5.5 pounds of ground meat per minute
- Includes coarse and fine grinding plates plus 3 stuffing tubes
- Compatible with the MEAT! foot pedal switch
- Heavy enough that it's not meant to stay out on the counter
- No compact storage option built in
Performance notes
The .5 HP motor is rated to push through 5.5 pounds of meat a minute, and the two included grinding plates let you switch between coarse and fine grinds depending on the recipe. The stainless stuffing plate and three tube sizes cover sausage stuffing as well as straight grinding, and it's built to accept the separate MEAT! foot pedal switch for hands free operation.
