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,

Do you have a Kitchen Aid? There is an attachment for grinding meat.

I don't. Do you use yours for grinding meat?

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)

Since it has holes drilledinto it to secure it to the table, are you
prepared to have screws drilled into your table?

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

Ohhh, I see. I had thought the free standing ones were somehow weighted. So
now I have to decide between a clamp-on or an electric. Do you have one?

No worries, she has a speculum and stirrups drilled right into her dining
room table so the neighborhood boys can come in for lascivious viewing
sessions, she charges a solid quarter from what I hear...she calls it
"cybertwot's THRILL Arcade".

I read a review that said the stainless model did not hold up for

and all.

"32". That's the largest size you can readily buy plates and knives for.

"22" is smaller, but still pretty big.

"10" and "12" are smaller still and use interchangeable cutters. 10
clamps to the edge of the table and 12 bolts to it.

There are also #8 and #5 grinders. I would not get anything smaller
than an #8.

Oh. I see. When you said you had a number 12, from the context of the
post I thought larger numbers meant smaller grinder. Looks like the #10 is
the smallest Northern Tools carries.

Do you have an electric? And if yours is manual does it clamp or screw or
just sit there? Is there no grinder that does not have to be attached to
something,
unless it is electric?

Actually, I would feel that I could be more productive. Also, if you're
inclined to use the sausage stuffer, you have 2 free hands to work with it,
rather than having to crank with one. Of course, that's a moot point if
you have more than one person.

The chief draw, for me, of a manual *anything* is that it is cheaper to
replace/repair. I am not sure if I would make my own sausage or not. It
sounds tempting. Thanks.

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.

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.

I've got one with a long handle like that. Remember the longer the lever
arm, the easier it is to grind. Just make sure whatever you anchor it to
is hefty enough that it won't lift up if you hit a tough spot in the
meat. Been there, done that when the kitchen table started to tilt the
wrong way. I now use the kitchen counter top to anchor to.

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.

If you put something between the clamp and the table ie cloth or paper, it
ought not not mess it up

I guess it depends on how posh your table is)
