We have the Pro 600. I ordered
a SS Meat Grinder/Stuffer accessory yesterday for it.
There are several "Horror Stories" about the plastic grinders breaking in use. So when I started looking and discovered Aftermarket grinders in metal, I tried looking for Stainless Steel attachments and found many.
So I browsed around and found what I thought was a good deal in SS and ordered it for ours.
Now there is the flip side to having an attachment that
may be stronger than the Power Head driving it. And that is if it is fed to fast, or too much, instead of the accessory failing, the drive train might break.
Some of the video's I watched, the power head sounded like it might be laboring as it was grinding meat.
So for me, I'm going to be careful about feeding it too fast. Maybe use it in steps?
A course grind, then a finer grind, stepping down to try and make it easier on the unit?
After all, it is a Mixer being tasked to do a pretty tough job.
The last thing I want to do is to break her mixer. I couldn't convince her to buy a Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer. But my Daughter did. She's had several, and as she got a better unit, the one's she's had got handed down to their kids. They are
all still working.
So my wife got the Professional 600 that the Daughter has, and recommended, to her.
So far, it basically gets used for Christmas Cookies. But she suggested I look into a grinder attachment for it.
She didn't have to ask twice....
I saw in one of
Disco's video's that the Old Fat Guy uses their
Kitchen Aid to grind his Breakfast sausage (OFG). (And a lot of other snosages.)
Being of sound mind and sound body I can follow a lead and try and do the same. Besides, I have more time than any other resource. So I figured I could sneak an accessory under her nose easier than a big new grinder.
And at my age, I've come to like the Dog House.
I want to make some snack sticks for the doghouse.
