    I don't know about you guys...

    I can't take credit for the pic.  My Brother took it with his phone while shopping, and posted it on our family site. But it was too funny not to share with you all.

    Ya gotta think this was done on purpose, by a bored or tired meat cutter. As long as all the right words are in there, the boss can't complain.  Right?   If it was my job, I know I would do these type things as often as I could.  LOL Years ago I managed a gas station for a company.  We had a...

    But I'm checking my meat labels more closely, before I tear open the package. LOL

    Is a reverse switch important?

    Well, it took awhile, but I finally received my foot switch from Harbor Freight.  Used grinder a couple of days ago for first time. The foot switch is just as handy for grinding, as I expect it will be for stuffing too. AWESOME!  Is all I can say about the STX 3000 MF. I ground 6 lb. (after...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    Yeah.  I was thinking of that too.   I already dehydrate raw sweet potatoes for some of her snacks.   She loves them.  And the nice thing with sweet potatoes is, that no matter how much she eats, her stool will be neither loose or too firm.  Something about the sweet potatoes always makes it...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    I already love it, and haven't even used it yet! Not sure on the bones yet dirtsailor.  Depends on whether or not the pets will want to switch to all raw meat & veggie diet or not. I know it says not to grind just bones.  It needs the meat to push it through, otherwise it will jam.  Also only...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    I ordered the STX 3000 TF.  Received yesterday afternoon, unpacked tonight.  First look. Holy Crap!   This thing is Hugh!  Much larger than I thought!  Maybe I should've got my tape measure out and compared it to specs.  LOL I'm not sorry I bought it though.  I'm sure this will take care of...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    The STX supplier didn't have email option to contact. LEM has not replied as of yet. Emailed Cabela's last night, and received prompt response today. That's the answer I was looking for!   I thought it would be, but wanted to be sure before ordering a foot switch. Yes, mowin, I'll be...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    I don't remember which site I read, when it said it disables the machine functions like reverse.  I would not need reverse when stuffing.  Maybe they meant it disables it when the foot switch was depressed.  You know, like not being able to change from one speed to another while switch was...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    You must have bought yours some time ago, or bought a used one?  I'm guessing.  The lowest price I can find for new one is  $169. I'm still considering it though. I never thought of a foot switch.   I just read a bit on them and it makes the buttons functions inoperable when plugged into to...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    Thanks everyone for your help.  I really appreciate it.   I love this forum! Reality hit me and some frugal common sense at same time. I looked at the STX, and yes I want it, but can't justify the price to pocketbook. I can get the grinder from Northern, buy two extra knives to match to...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    Now here is some info I didn't know before and always confused me.  I got this from butcher-packer site. What the ...?  Why not just one size, seeing as it fits both?  Go figure eh?  I thought the # of plate size was different OD size for the plates & knives. Thanks everyone for your replies. ...

    Is a reverse switch important?

    You've all... , plus a lot of reading various sites, have convinced me to buy a separate grinder. DaveOmak, most of all convinced me due to his problems with KA, and some PM's. Cranky... "it's only important when you need it!"  I hear ya on that. Chef JJ, and tropics... I wasn't planning on...
Great deal on LEM Grinders!
