The brand, anyone run one? Seem to get excellent reviews so I picked one up yesterday. 18 lbs a minute is chewin pretty good.
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

It looks similar to a cabelas with that slide out drawer. It could be the same maker and maybe Bass Pro's spun off the cabelas contracts.
Looks good to me.
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

Get a foot pedal. Much easier. Looks like a good one.

My 3/4 HP grinder does a fantastic job on the first grind but the second, finer (1/8th) grind takes awhile even with the meat semi frozen. Always regretted not getting the 1.5 HP model.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I go as small as 3/16" first grind.1/8" is for wienies.I like 3/16" for a hamburger grind,1/4" for sausage and 3/8" for a chili grind.The only time I run meat through my grinder twice is when I make sausage.I do that just to mix the meat and spices better.The second time goes through a really large plate that has only four pie shaped holes.

You won't have to worry about cutting the meat up too small before running it through that grinder.Pork tenderloin size strips will feed perfectly.I would get a foot switch.I think I paid around $20 for the one I have.Keeps your hands free when starting and stopping the grinder.

Agreed. Was making sausage last night with my 3/4 hp and used my LEM footswitch for the first time. That was a wise purchase.

Glad you posted this. I did some research and found a 3/16 plate that should fit my Cabelas grinder on Amazon. Should speed things up alot.
