I was given this for Christmas. I decided to make hamburgers one day but no hambuger meat so I ground a small roast and added some bacon for fat. They were the best hamburgers I have ever had. I use it to make ground chicken and for ham. Best gift ever!

I often buy meat in bulk especially when it is on sale. Lately, I have found that some of the cuts aren’t as tasty cooked whole and decided to use the meat grinder. The meat grinder is such an easy way to tenderize cheaper cuts of meat, and infuse them with seasoning. It does work better if you cut the meat up in pieces and trim the fat to an acceptable amount. Also this meat tastes so much better than meat than you buy already ground at the store. Also if you have any hunters in your house, this works wonderfully for game meat. It is a great way to process your own meat and control what your family is eating. Great tool!

I love this meat grinder. I used it for the first time tonight and it’s just great. It works well and is easy to operate and (most importantly) to clean. I love that it attaches to my KitchenAid and then can be put away for future use.

I just love the food grinder attachment for my kitchen aid. It is so easy to grind your own fresh meat. It always intimidited me to grind my own meat for some reason but it’s so simple. You can make your own combinations of what meat you want to use.

This attachment was gifted to me this past Christmas, at first I wasn’t very excited about it mostly because I had NO idea how to use it (I primarily use my Kitchenaid for baking) after watching some videos I got a better idea of the magic that could be done. Last week I tried it out for the first time, my goal was to make homemade burgers using the food grinder to make the ground beef. I followed the video instructions to the letter and made the most amazing burgers I’ve EVER had!! Now I’m very thankful that I got this. So far I’ve made ground meat twice and shredded cheese with it!

I received this product a few weeks ago and I so glad I did this is a great product I’m excited to be able to grind our own burger and experiment with adding different seasoning flavors. I prefer the metal meat grinder over the kitchenaid plastic one… I highly recommend this product

I am very happy with this attachment. I so far have ground beef and pork to make burgers and meat loaf. There is metal in this device but the majority of it is a pretty sturdy plastic. It attached very easily to my blender and was extremely easy to use and clean.

As someone who works for a sausage company (in the lab), I operate a countertop commercial grade meat grinder on the daily, so I had my reservations. As soon as it arrived my husband unboxed it (and wait for it…..read the directions/suggestions….in their entirety!), hand washed all the pieces, and put them all in the freezer. Then it was off to the grocery store to choose the meat. The hubs picked out two types he wanted and then came home and cut them into approx. 1″ cubes, onto a cookie sheet, and into the freezer with the grinder parts. Thirty minutes later he was ready to rock. He assembled the pieces and had them attached to the KitchenAid in the amount of time it took me to turn around and get the meat out of the freezer….so like 15 seconds. Then it was time for the magic. This little attachment ground the meat better than my commercial one! Sure some of that was freezing everything, but it’s also a surprisingly powerful little grinder! My one con, I wish that the auger throat was steel instead of plastic as I’m incredible clumsy and sure to drop/crack it at any given moment.

I used this to grind up my ground beef and other meat. Really liked it because it is easy to do and no mess. The attachment is easy to apply and easy to clean. The meat comes out perfect and no trouble getting stuck or clogged.

I love my kitchenAid Mixer and was so excited to use the Food Grinder attachment. The Food Grinder attachment is very easy to attach to the mixer, as well as remove. The instructions are clear and easy to follow when using this attachment. The grinder piece seems well made. I do recommend putting all grinder pieces as well as the meat in the freezer to ensure it’s very cold prior to using. The grinding process is not extremely slow and the grinder does an excellent job, especially when running the meat through twice. The machine is slightly loud but that is expected. You can use the food grinder for many different meats or salsas. When using this food grinder I found my burgers were so much better tasting compared to pre ground meats. The only problem is that the food grinder is tough to clean throughly. Overall I am pleased with this item and look forward to continuing to use the grinder in my kitchen.

I used this grinder twice already. Easy to operate. The first time my beef wasn’t cold enough. The second try I made sure my beef was really really cold. Almost frozen. It works great if your meat is really cold. The meat doesn’t stick to the grinder or get gummed up. Easy to use and also cleans up easy. Make sure you use a good soap on all the pieces of the grinder .

Grinding fresh meat for our family is so fun. At least we know it is fresh.

Have been using my grinder attachment for the past two years and have been very happy with it. However I’ve recently noticed cracks forming where the plastic covers the metal assembly attaching the grinder to the stand mixer. Is this solely a cosmetic issue or should I be concerned about the grinder failing and possibly contaminating food? Please advise. Thanks for a great product.

I just got this meat grinder and have only used it once, but so far it’s love. I ran 2 lbs of cubed, semi-frozen chuck roast through it twice, first with the coarse plate and next with the fine plate, and my burgers came out awesome. No fillers, no pink slime, only took a few minutes. I’ll never buy a burger patty again, and am thinking about all of the other things I can grind as I type this. One note, for those who love burgers. Bobby Flay suggests a 3/4 chuck to 1/4 sirloin ratio, and says to not clump your patties together too tightly – to leave some space so the juices can run through the meat. Bon appetit!

I absolutely love this attachment! I’ve been making all kinds of stuff. Pork patties, sausages of varying kinds. I just can’t get enough! The only thing is it needs a cover to restrain the blood. I use a solo cup lol

I like the food grinder attachment, sometimes i like to eat ground chicken so this is very convenient for me. While the product is plastic, the material quality is good and is very durable. It comes with two grind sizes that is very beneficial, I grind with both large first, then the smaller size blades and the quality of the ground chicken was as good.This attachment was easy to use, take apart, and clean. The product material was easy to clean, very easy to remove and reassemble. I will definitely use it regularly to grind.

Oh my God! I am so excited when I got this! I have been waiting for so long to get this attachment and I finally own it!!! I love to cook and the kitchen is my favorite place to hang out in my house. I have been missing my home country and one of the ways I cope up with it is by cooking home cooked meals. I am a meat lover so this attachment is very useful to me. The set includes food pusher, removable tray, main housing, grind screw, blade, grinding plate and a collar. The grinding plate comes in two. One is coarse with bigger holes and the other one is for fine grinding with smaller holes in it. These materials feels very sturdy and I am confident that this will last a long time. The grnder is very easy to assemble and use. First is to insert the grind screw into the main housing and place the blade at the end of the screw. The sharp side should be facing out. Choose your desired grinding plate depending on your what you’re making and place it over the blade. Place the collar and turn it clockwise to securely close it. Now you are ready to use it. Before using it make sure to chop up your ingredients so that it will fit on the feeding tube. This attachment is great in grinding meat, hard cheeses and vegetables. Very easy to clean as well. Not all parts are dishwasher safe. So i prefer to just prefer to soak it into warm soapy water and dry it thoroughly. So far I have grinded pork and beef and it was a breeze. Now I don’t have to buy ground meat in the market and I can also control how lean or fatty my ground meat will be. I am impressed and so happy with the outcome everytime I use it. I highly recommend.

I used this to make ham salad, with pickles and onions and my family loved it! So, I decided to try to grind bologna, onions and pickles, we all loved it too! I’m looking forward to coming up with all kinds of different things to make. It’s easy to use and clean too!
