First Impression
Cost-- Bed Bath & Beyond $160+ tax free shipping with 20% off coupon
Arrived in a few days, double boxed really well packaged for shipping
Unbox simple, cleaned and hit with food grade silicone (LEM)
Assembly for grinding super simple
Has lock/unlock to remove auger feed tube parts
Sturdy, heavy duty, suction cup to prevent machine from walking
Purchased 3# of choice sirloin steak. Yellow Tag.
Cubed into two inch squares
Machine processed faster than I could feed. 30-40 second tops
No bogging down, no straining, no sinew wrap.
First impression is it's a winner. More to come in future

I am just in the beginning to a grind return. Once upon a time I processed my own deer. simple enough
backstrap butterfly, tenders whole. some cutlets and burger. :little deer near Brownwoodl TX. My goal s to avoid bone in burger (and pork too) Lately everything I buy has bone frags.im not going to quit buying store meat but when I see boneless beef cuts in the bargain bin, Im going to make some burger.
bought some Hi Mountain Breakfast Sausage Seasoning, I didn't see any AC Legs but I hear that's the primo.

the plunger wasn't used much, as the meat went straight down the pipe and auger grabbed it quickly.

Yup. Some grinds I never use the pushy thing at all; I push with the next semi-frozen strip on the rare occasion a push is needed.

I use a shaker to put the sausage seasoning on the strips as they sit in the sheet pan, then just grind once. If using two meats I put them onto the sheet pan as randomly mixed as I can. There is almost no end to my laziness.
