Very nice. I have only used the hydraulic 30 lb unit at work, but can tell you that powered stuffers are a whole different ball game. Once you get it down, you will love it.
 
Nice!!! I can't wait for the reports on it!
I've been eyeballing the electronic stuffers for a few years. When I process my big yearly hunt's worth of meat the stuffing day is when I need a person to help and I sometimes have trouble finding a volunteer and it really becomes pain when you have like 7-10 animals worth of meat needing to be finished with processing, vac sealed, and stored away.

That is a beauty Rick!
I have been wanting to get a bigger stuffer, cause a 5 lb. batch never fits in a 5 lb. stuffer. Would love the motorized version. Can't wait to hear how you like it.

You and me both tallbm....though I have a crew helping me, it still takes a while to process 678# of meat from 11 deer and 200# of pork butts.
Yeah I don't do that volume but doing 100+ pounds definitely introduces you to the pain of it all lol.

Yep Al, this is why I always preach to get a stuffer that holds a little more than what you normally stuff. So if a person does 5 pound batches then find a 7 pound stuffer. I bought a 10L (22-23 pounds) so I could do 20 pounds at a time! I would think that a 10-11 pound stuffer or larger basically means a 2 man job though so there is that trade off once you start getting that big.

Oh and the weight. My stuffer is all of 45-50 pounds so there's that too when they start getting bigger :)
 
Thanks y'all

My 2 five pounders have served me well but both broken shoulder a few years ago its getting harder to crank em.

I wonder... if your new contraption works well, will there be 1 or 2 5 pound stuffers listed for sale in the classifieds? :emoji_wink:
 
Nice stuffer Rick.. now as you said.. time to learn how to make sausage and use it... There use to be a feller on here that went by the name of NEPAS ... he was pretty good at it... taught me everything I know.. If you could find him and get a few pointers.. that would really help ... LOL

Very Nice!! I just moved up from my grinder to the LEM 5lb stuffer and was very pleased with how easy it was. I am sure the step up to electric will be leaps and bounds better. Cant wait to see pic of the new stuffer in action.
