answer 2

small ones that are cooked would be OK . But I would recommend going to a larger one if you are planning on doing it on a large scale. with larger bones.

answer 3

I would not run bones in this one, with only a 1/2 hp motor you would likely burn it up. It handles grinding meat very well when it is cleaned(no excessive cleaning required it handled tendons well)

answer 4

It grinds raw chicken bones so cooked should be even easier. We use it around 8 times a year for 250 lbs of raw chicken for our dogs. The first one we had lasted 5 years. The one we just got is a lot quieter so maybe it is an improved model. I did a pretty extensive search and this looks like the best for chicken bones. I don't use it for any other bones but it's pretty powerful so it might work.

answer 5

I have used this machine for about 2 years now. I use it every two weeks to make raw food for my cats. It handles raw chicken bones with ease. I don't try to grind any other types of bones though. Just chicken. The only time it every gave me any trouble is when the blade was dull (bones, no surprise there). Replaced the blade and I was happily grinding up whole chickens bones and all for my very spoiled kitties.

answer 2

We tried it and couldn't get it to stuff without the blade. Our solution is quite simple... We added our spices before grinding and simply attached the casing to the grinder when you initially grind the meat. This made the whole process fast and simple.

answer 3

Yes, First, make sure that your grinder uses a #10 or 12 grinding plate. Buy an "open" grinding plate of the appropriate size. (It has very large openings instead of the myriad of holes that most grinder plates have. It is designed only to support the auger at its outer end and is held on with the standard grinder end collar. This plate is made for stuffing without a grinder plate or blades installed (exactly what you need). I use mine frequently for stuffing without grinding.

Question

When is there going to be a cuber for this unit?

I'd really like to see more attachments:

How about a buffalo chopper?
How about a cuber?
How about pasta makers?

Any other ideas for attachments?
