Can it grind cooked meat?

It worked on chicken, but I haven't tried it with anything tougher than that.

I tried grinding cooked ground turkey. It required a lot of "muscle" to push the food through. As a result, I also wound up with metal shavings in the food because the metal is too soft . I wouldn't buy this product. It's not worth the risk of metal shavings in the food.

No it would break if you grind poultry bones no bones what so ever, the grinding plates Could do it, but the meat grinder itself it would break, because it is plastic, I would not dare put bones in my meat grinder

I don't know if it can grind row bones or not I haven't tried. It does really well on the meat we grind.

Yes, you can grind most any meat to make ground burger or sausage. That's the beauty of grinding you own. You know exactly what's in your burger or sausage. I would suggest cutting into cubes and putting in the freezer for a short time to firm up the meat while you get everything set up. Then remove and start grinding. This grinder worked well for me. I made lots of deer burger and sausage last fall.

Yes, it can grind chicken breast if cut in cubes. I have tried that once few days ago.

If you keep the meat cold almost frozen it works better. Don't force the meat too much and it will do a great job. I use mine to grind chuck roast and pork butt.

This grinder is severely under-powered and it can barely process the meat without bones, so I would say no.

No, I have only used it for coffee. I think that grinding moist substances, like ginger and garlic, would not work well unless it was fully loaded. I wouldn't do this with my mine.

No, not really. Meat requires a very sharp blade and although the blades in the machine are sharp, they're not that sharp. It works great for making ground beef with the cutting mixing blade, but for those deli slices, you are better off with a machine made for the job. Just search Amazon for "deli slicer" or "meat slicer."

Have not tried but do not think you can - We do however grind our own hamburger meat with chuck using this food processor and it does a great job

We have used this machine to "cube" cuts of steaks. We run the meat through a second time, which makes it even more tender. I expect you could do stew meat with it. It may work with smaller pieces of meat. Might be worth a try.'

good question, I would say you could if it was fresh boiled and fresh eaten as long as there's moisture for it to break down easy, but it does take a lot of elbow grease to grind up big stuff.

It works okay for grinding meat in small amounts. I actually bought this as a portable option for an older adult with swallowing issues. It works well on most foods but only has the capacity for small amounts of food at one time.

I have never done cooked ground beef but I have done cooked veggies, so you should have no problem, just make sure you fill it up only below the half way mark, better doing it in several batches than all filled up, all of course depends on the quantity you intend to make finer.... It is quite a strong machine.Edith

I did not use it for cooked meat, but I would say NO WAY that it could. At least if I had bought one from Walmart I could have returned it after a few months. Please believe me it was a waste of money. Any cheap mini food chopper can process onions, etc. I just used it to break up sour dough bread and it ruined the chopper.

The way it grinds chicken bones so easily, I'm sure it would go right through that paua meat like butter, I made sausage a few weeks ago, was able to grind about 55 pounds of pork in about 21 minutes, very capabile
