Can I use this for grinding meat?

I would imagine it could grind thawed non-stringey (not too many tendons) or boney meat, but I wouldn't throw a frozen block of ground beef inside ... that would certainly damage your blades.

I have only used it once...grinding wild turkey meat. It worked well and was reasonably easy to clean. For your intended use, I would go up to 1.5 or 2 Hp.

This is designed to grind meat. I use a Magic Bullet for seeds and nuts and it does nicely.

Probably Not ! While it does a nice job on meats vegies etc... I wouldn't use it for bones. Someone answered use a metal grinder would probably be the best answer for what you want to do

This is mostly a meat grinder. I am afraid it would turn nuts into a pulverized state or even slight paste. Although, Weston All-Purpose Seed, Nut and Spice Grinder might serve the purpose.

I have not tried it, but I would think the way it is built that you should be able to accomplish that. This grinder has several grind settings and does a great job. I am very pleased with it since I purchased it.

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.

Probably, I mean, I don't see why not. It's got a nice precision grinder and limitless adjustment for how fine a grind you want. It may hold onto the smell/flavor of whatever you grind though, because it is all wood inside - there is no barrier to keep it clean/uncontaminated.

It might, but I wouldn't consider this the best tool for the job. For one thing, the handle is long and designed to work on the ground. I guess you could put your steak on a plate and sear it on the floor? I don't eat a lot of meat but that can't be the best way to go about it.

No I don't think you want to try grinding bones less you want a big mess on your hands....I ground small 1" peaces of just meat and it was a big job pushing the meat down the feed hole it kept pushing the meat back up and out all over the counter....You should look at better electric unit to grind bones.........LEM makes a good unit but expect to pay 200 at least........

Definitely not. I use it to make dog food and have difficulty every time as the gristle from the meat clogs the blade and I have to take apart, unclog and finish. When I use meat with bones it is even worse.

Ultra Dura+ is not made to grind meat. We do not know anyone who has used it for meat.

It may do it,but I would not recommend putting bones through any meat grinder,it would be hard on any cutting knife.I hope this helps.Thanks Randy

Good question. I have never done it. It could be done but you would probably have problems with a good seasonings mix in the ground meat. The stuffing tube will definitely fit with the grinding plate and the meat would be able to fill the casing. Marinated meat might be worth trying. Dang, I see the needless murder of another wild pig in my future!

I use it to grind meat and it purees that just fine. I believe it would do just fine for the peas. I have been very happy with the performance of this grinder.

You could try it, but I usually do two grinds for the sausage I make. I don't think this short cut of grinding and stuffing would prove to be much of a time saver.

Yes. Without a doubt it should do a very good job of grinding chicken. Nice and powerful. Take the bones out first. Hope this helps.
