AAOBOSI #12 Electric Meat Grinder 3 Speed

Overview

The AAOBOSI #12 is a heavy duty electric meat grinder rated at 600 watts continuous and 3000 watts peak, sized for a No. 12 head with a stated output of about 7 pounds per minute. It ships with 2 blades, 4 plates, 3 sausage stuffing tubes, a kibbe kit, a meat claw and a burger press.

Its No. 12 head size puts it a step up from the smaller No. 5 or No. 8 home grinders, aimed at people processing whole cuts or game rather than occasional small batches. Owners running large quantities, including hunters processing deer and one who ground 55 pounds of chuck roll in a sitting, are the ones putting its stated 7 pound per minute rate to a real test, though the maker's own instructions call for a 10 minute on, 10 minute off duty cycle to avoid overheating.

• No. 12 grinder head, 600W continuous, 3000W peak
• Includes 2 blades and 4 grinding plates
• 3 sausage stuffing tubes plus a kibbe kit
• Dishwasher safe blades and plates

Who it's for

This suits home cooks and hunters processing larger volumes of meat regularly, including sausage making with the included stuffing tubes. It is not built for continuous industrial length runs, since the motor is meant to rest every 10 minutes under sustained use.

Performance notes

Owners who ground large volumes, from 14 pounds of double ground chuck roll to 40 pounds of venison and pork fat, report the motor stayed cool and did not slow down or gum up, provided the maker's 10 minute on, 10 minute off cycle is followed. The built in storage compartment for accessories is a weak point, with one buyer noting parts do not fit well and fall out when the door opens.
