Overview
MEAT Your Maker built this kitchen sized electric grinder so meat drops down a safety chute and the motor forces it through a coarse or fine plate. Swap in the stuffing plate and a tube and the same base fills sausage, with a reverse setting to back out jams.
Doing two jobs with one motor is the reason to buy: grinding and stuffing both run from the same base, with reverse for clearing clogs. Watch the spec sheet, which lists only the grinder as included even though the description names plates and tubes, and gives no weight or voltage.
Who it's for
Game processors and home sausage makers filling the freezer will use both its grinding and stuffing roles. Butchers running continuous volume need a larger commercial unit.
Pros and cons
- Grinds and stuffs from one base
- Reverse setting for clearing clogs
- Coarse and fine plates included
- Safety chute guards fingers
- Voltage and weight not listed
- Included parts field contradicts the description
- Large countertop footprint
- Only two grinding plate options
Performance notes
Grinding speed depends on the motor pushing chilled, trimmed meat through the plate; warm fat and sinew slow the feed and can clog it, which is where reverse helps. The fine plate offers more resistance than the coarse one, so expect a slower feed for fine grinds.
