5 out of 5 stars A good grind   August 30, 2010
Shoptildrop (Washington State)
Another great attachment for the Kitchenaid. The two size grind blades are enough to do the job for most purposes.Grinding your own assures you know exactly what goes into your food and this attachment does it efficiently. Only caveat is that it is not sufficiently fast or big enough for large amounts. Great home use.

We have only used the grinder attachment to grind a pork butt and stuff some italian sausage. the grinding went really easy and had no problems with the blades cloging. My only dissapointment was with the cheap plastic pusher that was included and not the wood one that was in the picture on the website


4 out of 5 stars Works good, cleanup is okay   March 9, 2010

I use this for grinding meat, both cooked and raw, and it works good. The reviews concerning meat squeezing around the end of the push stick are correct. An improvement would be a solid plunger.

I find I have to drape plastic wrap over the output to avoid having juices and blood squirted across the kitchen. After washing I lightly oil it with cooking oil and reassemble so it will be ready to grind at a moment's notice.

I like to make my own sausage, so this, plus the sausage stuffing attachment, was a great addition to the kitchen.

Some things to make the grinding go easier:
1) Chill the meat cubes in the freezer for 30 minutes or so. If the meat is completely defrosted, it can gum-up the inside a bit (easily resolved). Having the meat cubes a little "stiffer" lets it grind easier.
2) Don't power your mixer up to "10". This is a slower process. I use the max speed or "stir" or maybe as high as a 1 or 2. This keeps the grind even and you won't overheat your mixer.

Cleaning can be a bit of a pain. I unfold a paper clip and use the wire to dig out some of the meat, rinse and then let the dishwasher do the rest.

Very convenient and functional. But it is not cutting meats really well due to the knife's cheap design and execution.
It is acceptable for a single chicken breast or so, but keep your real meat grinder handy for real meat grinding.
