Hey Sheldon - Meat Grinder Question

Van · 2005-08-26T13:00:16+00:00

Well, after a couple of years of seeing you extol the virtues of grinding your own, my daughter-in-law had given me a gift certificate to one of our local cooking specialty stores, so I went down there yesterday and got the meat grinder attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer. Picked up an every-day-type 1 lb. chuck steak at the Chop, washed the attachment & ground away. Made 2 patties & did 'em to medium-rare over lump charcoal. Freakin' awesome! Soooo much better than pre-packaged ground beef. Wife said it was the best ever (& I don't hear that, that often!). I plan on grinding my own from here on out. Wanna plan on trying sirloin next, but not sure if the fat content is high enough. My question? What other meats/items do you grind in yours? Not that it isn't worth the $$ just for beef/burgers/meatloaf/etc. Thanx for the urging. Van

Well, after a couple of years of seeing you extol the virtues of grinding
your own, my daughter-in-law had given me a gift certificate to one of our
local cooking specialty stores, so I went down there yesterday and got the
meat grinder attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer.

grinding my own from here on out. Wanna plan on trying sirloin next, but
not sure if the fat content is high enough.
My question? What other meats/items do you grind in yours? Not that it
isn't worth the $$ just for beef/burgers/meatloaf/etc.
Thanx for the urging.

Grind any meat you want, poultry, even fish... grind boiled meat too
for pate, and veggies, potato pancakes.... and bread/cracker crumbs.

Can you pass on your potato pancake recipe. I have bucketloads of trouble
trying to get these to work.

Sausage. Check my web site for a few ideas and links to others. Far
superior to store bought.
