LOVE LOVE LOVE this attachment!
This is an awesome attachment - i've used it to grind chicken for lettuce wraps, as well as making some of my own ground beef.
it's got 2 discs with different diameters...the large worked out wonderfully for my ground chicken, and the smaller is really nice to get a fine grind on red meats. if you want a really ground up meat i'd run it though the grinder twice. either way it's a great kitchen item!
Awesome!
I bought and used for sausage and kilbasa. The grinder works great, the sausage attachment needs a better pusher.
Food grinder attachment
The food grinder attachment works great,it works well for making your own hamburger..better and cheaper than store hamburger. I also recently purchased the food puree attachment as well. I used the puree attachment to puree my pumpkins and sweet potatoes, works fantastic!!!!!
If you love to cook fresh, it's a great buy!!!
NEW AND IMPROVED

The customer service people told me that this residue is "harmless" but I have had a hard time getting comfortable feeding my family a metal residue in their food. I end up picking it out, but that is labor intensive and takes all of the fun out of using this machine.
I have tried adding a small amount of food-safe lubricant, but that makes ... Read More
