Got this in yesterday. Completely washed and air dried everything. Put the grinder in a deep freezer for 12 hours (overnight). Cubed 3 lbs of pork shoulder, and put that into a freezer for 20 minutes. Took 5 minutes to grind the meat with the medium plate. Ran it through again with more spices. Everything stayed cold enough for good grinds. Took me 5-10 minutes to thoroughly clean everything in soapy water. The included brush was definitely useful. Browning the pork now for a red sauce with pasta. Can’t wait to taste it.In hindsight, I’m bummed I didn’t by this years ago. If you can afford it, I definitely recommend the metal grinder as opposed to the plastic one.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) When I purchased this attachment I figured that I’d use it on occasion. I have been using it a lot more than I planned and I love it!!! From ground chuck to turkey sausage, I’ve put it to the test. It’s fantastic!!!! I highly recommend it.

In store pick up was appreciated during the pandemic.The grinder was easy to use and easy to clean. Meet all my expectations. I wish I purchased one sooner. I’ll never buy processed ground meat again.

I nought this as a replacement for the older plastic body food grinder I had, which served me well for years but had developed a crack in the plastic housing shaft body near where the attachment fits into the accessory hub on the mixer. I noticed that other reviews mentioned this same issue with the plastic body grinder, so I would recommend that prospective buyers just go with the metal bodied version and avoid this potential problem with the plastic model. The all metal construction is much more robust, also the grinding capacity of the unit is greater due to the larger diameter of the grinding tube and discs. With the all metal model you can also pre chill the entire grinder to ensure that meats stay at safe temperatures and process through the unit easier. Overall, a real improvement over the previous model. Great job Kitchenaid, I’ve used your products for many years at home and have used the Hobart products in commercial kitchens as well. Both have always been reliable, bulletproof and powerful enough to tackle any job. Id recommend them to anyone.

Very sturdy attachment, works great. not much goes to waste. Cleaning of some of the smaller parts is no fun, luckily they provide a decent bristle brush to help with the cleaning.

Bought this meat grinder to assist making Cajun dirty rice for Christmas dinner. How have I lived without this? My gizzards come out so fine making the dirty rice the best I’ve made ever. Now the kids and guests don’t know whats in the dish only that it’s delicious. Thanks so much Kitchenaid for helping me make better meals. I can’t wait to make boudin sausage.

Great addition to our KitchenAid mixer. HD goods come boxed in a high quality, sturdy box.

KitchenAid has the best mixers and attachments and this meat grinder is no exception. It would be more convenient if the feeder tube were a bit larger since the restricted size requires cutting the meat cubes into smaller widths, but you have to cut the meat anyway so not a big issue. Be careful not to run the grinder dry initially since it has no natural food lubrication to keep the knife to blade surface from wearing. Possibly a small amount of vegtable oil on the blade applied on first use would help.

I consider myself a KitchenAid family member for many years. My Kitchen has been filled with their products for over 40 years. I had the plastic food grinder since day one and finally upgraded to this beautiful metal grinder. I’ve only had it a week and already made 35 lbs of holiday sausage for family and friends. What a pure joy using this grinder. Like the other reviews state, please make sure the grinder is very cold for best results. The uses of this grinder are endless. I made ham spread, ham croquets, meatballs, sausage, hamburger patties, etc. I have always bought my choice cuts of meat to grind as you know exactly what is in your meat. It’s healthier too as there are no filler meats or cereals. Thank you KitchenAid for allowing me to explore my cooking abilities with outstanding products. You’ve always been by my side assisting me in the kitchen and today I want everyone to know how grateful I am. Thank you.

Extremely happy with our purrchase, we grinded 15lbs of deer and 19lbs of pork. Then transformed the meat into sausages. Very easy to use!

It’s been 7 months now and after using it once a week that entire time I can say with full confidence that it’s a great product. It works flawlessly with the Kitchen Aid stand mixer, it has everything you would need. It’s easy to use and is very robust.It comes apart easily for cleaning, the included brush makes short work of that.The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars (I would have given it 4.5 stars if that was an option) is the cost for the unit very obviosly represents the quality of the product but it could have included a blade per plate and a larger dia sausage stuffer (had to purchase separately) at this price point.

We couldn’t believe the ease of use and clean up also I love that the box it came in is where you store it!

I recieved this as a long awaited christmas gift last year and used it to process an entire deer flawlessly! The variable speed on the mixer allows for grinding tough cuts more slowly or to speed through grinding and stuffing. The variable grind size plates is also a great feature. The all metal assembly is extremely easy to clean and will last for years! Much improved over the lower cost plastic option that my mom has used for years.
