I want to start making sausages and I am looking at a grinder to buy. I have been periusing the forums here and I have come to the conclusion I need a grinder with metal gears. I also read that LEM was a good brand around these forums. I will not be grinding nothing bigger then a pork shoulder at any given time. There is tons of people on this site that know way more then me so I wanted a few opinions if I am looking at a good meat grinder. Here is a description of the meat grinder. The cost is $200 dollars. I'm trying not to spend no more then $250. Down the line I plan on getting a dedicated stuffer.
The LEM #8 Mighty Bite Grinder features a #8 aluminum head with an aluminum auger and a stainless-steel reinforced shaft with metal gears for durability. Forward and reverse functions and a large pan let you quickly and easily grind big portions of meat. Includes stuffing, 4.5 mm (fine) and 10 mm (coarse) stainless-steel plates and 1/2", 1" and 1-3/8" plastic stuffing tubes.
