I'm sure several here have made sausage balls in the past and if
you're like me, was not enthused by the process. Mix, mix, mix, blend, squish, squash, squish and mix again and again and again. Dang, what a chore! A few weeks ago I was perusing a cooking group and someone posted to put all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and using their mixer to do all the work. The comment was this will take quite a while and you'll think the mixture will never come together. This past week end I put all the ingredients in the KitchenAid mixing bowl and used the K beater and in less than 3 minutes ALL was beautifully combined! All that was left to do was to roll this mixture into bite portions and bake. The process was SO fast I had not even turned on the oven to pre-heat as I was assuming this would take much longer and I had plenty of time to think of oven temperatures later. Needless the say the KitchenAid artisan mixer handled this chore effortlessly. Next time I may try the dough hook just to see what sort of results I achieve. |

But when the KA is not in use it rests on top of my refrigerator, covered. Believe me, this will build some nice upper arm muscles!! I tell my family and co-workers if they don't see or hear from me for a few days to come to the house to make sure the KA hasn't fell on me and killed me! hahahaaaa Btw, KitchenAid has rebates on their products quite often. And if you have a Bed, Bath, & Beyond near you and have a 20% off coupon you can save a nice chunk of change buying it there. (nudge, nudge, nudge) |

Oh, just the picture in my mind, too funny. Not if it really happened, of course.

If you're using a good quality breakfast sausage they don't need additions of onions, jalapenos or anything else to mess/dress them up. You might like a bit of jelly or other such breakfast condiment with them, though. |

The part I keep shoving out of my mind. Nancy, the only complaints I have about our 20+ year old KA stand mixer are (A) it's an older model wherein removing the bowl after a hard mix is a little difficult, (B) you can't scrape down the sides while mixing, or at least it's slightly inconvenient. Eventually I'll get one of those scraper-blade-paddles and (B) will no longer be an issue. -- Terry |

I'd never made them before and I was really having my doubts it was going to come together. Too late I remembered being told to warm up the cheese and the sausage before trying to mix them together. I think they finally came together because the ingredients got warmer and warmer from being worked. nancy |

The shredder/slicer attachment is fantastic! And the ice cream maker is another wonderful attachment, also. I have yet to try the meat-grinder attachment, and I'll have to give that a go soon -- maybe just as spring/summer gets here, when it's a lot less cold and I can grill burgers!

I've used the 20% off coupons on KitchenAid stuff, twice with no problem at all, once was for the mixer. They gladly accepted it. |

Perhaps BB&B (or maybe KA?) decided to add that disclaimer to their (BB&B's) 20%-off coupons - Bummer! Sky -- Ultra Ultimate Kitchen Rule - Use the Timer! Ultimate Kitchen Rule -- Cook's Choice!! |

I haven't seen the "Artisan" (5 quart) style of KA mixer(s) for less than $269 (with rebate included) for quite a long time. I have, however, seen less robust 4.5-quart models (Ultra? or called something like that?) listed at $199. But, a KA is a KA, eh? Even the $199 model would be very nice to have in the kitchen!
