Will this chop stew meat into smaller pieces for a small dog to eat?

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.'

no. It it will tenderize meat like a cube steak.I guess you could chop it up into bite sized pieces after you tenderize it.Hope this helps.....Jim

This does not chop, but puts slices through the meat to tenderize. It flattens the meat though. The more times you run the meat through, the more lacy the cut looks. I like to run the piece through one direction, then turn and run it again. This makes the piece tender. Works great for game meat!

I have only used with ground meat. I would think it would be ok if the meat was sliced thin.

It will do about a one inch piece of meat. My problem with it is the knives are to far apart to really do a good job. You have to run the meat through to many times to get the tenderness you may be looking for.

Chop them into smaller pieces but they don't have to be chopped too fine. Works well for chopping carrots!

Yes, you can cook a smaller amount. The portion doesn't matter. It will still come out just as good.

Yes. One is smaller for chicken pieces, bacon, steaks, etc. And a bigger one for ribs, roast. You basically use whichever one you want, but yes there are 2 sizes.

It will cut pretty thin if meat partially frozen an eighth of an inch or less really haven't measured. I love mine wish I had bought it years ago.

If it is a small chicken. I use the rotisserie for chicken and it is AWESOME!

it depends what you cook. For stew, it's too big for a single person even for cooking for 2 meals. But if you use it to cook clear soup, it's the right size for 2 meals.

I have chopped cabbage in mine. You can't fill it very full, so you'll have to do the process several times.But this little baby can chop--fine or coarse. I love it.

It doesn't mush some of the food before the rest is chopped. you have great control over size of chop. It has a sweeper on the bottom that moves the food around well.

I hope not - I'm halfway thru and there's been no sign. The dog likes it, anyway, and if not totally turned off the coprophagy, he's at least no longer devoted to it. That could be the meat tenderizer I sprinkle on his food, as well, of course.t

I have only chopped nuts and veggies in this. I don't think the blades are sharp enough for meat, nor would the pieces be small enough IMO. Stick with a food processor.

I don't know. It might if they were cooked. I have only ground pork stew meat. The bones might be tough on the grinder

I would give your little one just a small piece of it. I have an 8 lb shichon who will eat the whole then and then promptly get sick :(!

Yes, the kibble size is small. I think it would be fine for a small breed dog. It's about 3/8 of an inch in size.

It probably could be done If you choose to use it like a giant crock pot. I feel you should brown the beef before putting it in. It really is a roaster and as such may not give you the results you want on the first try. But to create a very large stew it most likely would work.
