Some input would be nice, from those of you who may be so inclined. (Except you, Sheldon, you stupid old dickhead. And you Morrow, you flabby old Queen.) This one looks good: http://tinyurl.com/29479d What I want it for is grinding 4-5 lbs of beef max for burgers and meatloaf, at least for now. I'm sure I will find other uses for it after it arrives. Yes, I am also googling the group. Have you thought to get a motorized one. 4-5 pounds of meat is a lot to grind. And my grinder suggests grinding using both disks, large first, small second. But if you want to buff up your arm muscles that looks like a fine choice. Imho, Andy |

Yes, I am also googling the group. That one is too large for small batches like that. when I was young, we would use a #10 grinder to make 20 to 30 pounds of sausage at a time. Is there a #22 available? (I have an electric #12 that I bought from Northern a few years ago that works great) Bob |

From the photo, the handle seems too long. You'll be cranking it with the handle over the edge of the counter while the ground meat drops out in front of you onto...I guess a plate. To me, it looks like it would be awkward to use. Is there a way to anchor it down? Because it's going to require some elbow grease to do this and you don't want the whole thing sliding around as you grind. |

Yes, I am also googling the group. Looks like possibly a bit large for 5 pounds at a time, but will get the job done. Good price also. I use the grinder attachment for the KA and do 15 to 20 pounds at a time for sausage. |

All the manual grinders I've seen are designed that way - to be used over the edge of the counter. Even the ones that are taller and clamp to the edge of a table/counter. Squat body to help stability; and long handle for leverage. -sw The ones that clamp onto the edge of a table or counter easily will allow the ground meat to fall into a dish in front of the grinder - NOT over the edge. I have my gramma's, and that's how it works. N. |

Suck it up and ask him, he will help you. Rosie |

Those clamp ones do at least cause (very little) damage |

To me, it looks like it would be awkward to use. Is there a way to anchor it down? Because it's going to require some elbow grease to do this and you don't want the whole thing sliding around as you grind. That particular style grinder is designed to be bolted directly to a table/counter or bolted directly to a sturdy piece of lumber and then the lumber clamped to a table/counter with a couple of heavy C clamps. But that size grinder is much too large for home use, and would be too difficult to crank without having others take turns, or convert it to motorized (very dangerous), and it's very important to grind meat expeditiously, to get the job done quickly before the meat and the grinder become warm. And that particular size/type grinder would be okay for someone with hundreds of pounds of meat to grind once a year if it wasn't the poorest quality piece of made in china crap $40 could buy... I wouldn't buy it for $4 (in fact I wouldn't have one for free), it wouldn't even make a decent door stop. There's a lot more to know about grinding meat than buying the biggest cheapest piece of crap grinder.... the smallest lowest priced electric ginder is a hundred times better than that cybercooz crap... even the teensy toys r us kitchen aid attachment is better than that chinese hunk-a-junk. Anyone wanting to buy a grinder you need to spend for something of quality or you're not giving the concept a fair chance from the start... a grinder costing less than the meat you grind says something about those who would consider it, and not very nice.
