I’ve done this for years. I had troubles you speak of when I used a cheap 100$ lem grinder. When I upgraded to the Weston #12 (600$) my troubles were over. I’m not familiar with the dual grind either but anyway. I cut deer meat in 1” cubes or cross grain strips. Not overloading the hopper...

Since you said you were going to buy a "huge sausage stuffer", I highly recommend a electric one with a foot pedal no matter what brand you choose. I bought their 10lb model when it came out and love it. That foot pedal has made stuffing a 1 man job for even 17mm snack stick casings, so using...

My LEM #12 grinder and LEM 20# stuffer fir sausage making.

Hey all. As per the title, I'm considering the purchase of a new, smaller meat grinder for small batch runs of sausage and burger and such. I currently have a #22 Cabela's Carnivore and it's a brute to get out for small batches. I'm wondering if a #8 would be good enough for small 5-10lb...

I went with LEM as the #12 and 25# mixer. Grinder acts as a motor too. The #12, IMO, is more than most home use people need. I have ground 1/2 a pig and multiple deer with mine. I can cut the neck into 1" square strips 12" to 15" long and just drop them in the throat and off it goes. #22 would...

Guess I could have mentioned the reason for pending purchases. I have bone on bone in my shoulders, so hand cranking of any kind is out of the question. Also, carpal tunnel rules out hand mixing. Not too worried about the cleaning aspect. Thanks, I'll check that out.

Got my new grinder today. I had also purchased two new LEM salvinox knives. One to pair with each plate. Is the knife that was included with the grinder different? I just figured I'd save it for backup or pair it with the kidney bean plate....which I'll probably never use.

Sale goes thru 01/25/25 at midnight. Code is PARTS24 Must be ordered on LEM website... https://www.lemproducts.com/category/parts/?p=parts24&rjnrid=1Bw2opY Just in time for our big processing day. I needed to order replacement auger tips and nylon bushings anyhow. Those auger tips will wear...

New in (opened) box. SKU 1723 for #8 grinder Here's all the details and specs: https://www.lemproducts.com/product/dual-grind-adapters/new-products $85 shipped in CONUS.

It will work, but not do a good job... and think if you try it that you won't think it's still appealing. Ryan

My wife does the cranking on both the grinder and stuffer. We dont get the LEM electric out unless we have a 30lb batch

Man that’s great info thanks!

I also echo to start with store ground meats. I started using store bought ground pork for a few years and made bulk (not stuffed in a casing) breakfast sausage and Italian sausage. The bulk Italian wasn't popular (prefer it in casings), but various breakfast patties is what I make the most and...

new here so I hope I posted to right forum. Curious for tips/tricks from those who grind straight through a 2” burger bag stuffer tube and fill bags at same time they grind the burger My current setup is a #32 grinder with the “loved/hated” LEM dual grind adapter. I grind a lot of deer burger...

Pairing the knives and plates is not as important as you might think. It’s a fine practice but really not necessary if the knife and plates are all true and flat.

Give it a try. I tried it a few times before I bought a dedicated stuffer. Dedicated stuffers are so much faster and they make it much easier to produce quality sausage.

Depending on how thick they are, I run them through my LEM cuber (tenderizer) attachment for my grinder 3 times and then either bread and fry or just pan sear. Make gravy with the pan juices and add maybe a combination of onions, mushrooms, and peppers to top. After making the gravy, sometimes...

After giving this more thought here is where I’m at. I too run the dual grind from LEM, it’s the #8 so same setup just smaller. I’ve had my auger plug on three different occasions and each for a different reason. First time I didn’t lube the rear auger bushing and the auger got hot enough that...

I really like my Lem #8 grinder, it's all I need, and it works great. The only thing you might want to add is the foot peddle, on off. I got mine on Amazon, I'll look up the brand, and put a link here. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017T2J2NC?ref_=ppx_hzod_title_dt_b_fed_asin_title_0_0 It works...

I did the same thing... have a 1 1/2 hp Cabelas grinder we use when grinding deer burger and bought a number 8 Lem for small batches. It works good for that. Noisier than I expected but it's not terrible. Ryan
