recommendation for meat grinder

I've pretty much decided I need a serious meat grinder.
I do have a manual grinder, but it is an Italian Jolly
brand made out of plastic. It's served me well for
what it is, but I need a real machine, powered by
electricity. I understand this is a subject for which
many have strong opinions. I'd like to hear them.

It was big steps back when you changed from an 8088 to a 386 to a Pentium
90. And from a 1200 baud modem to a 28.8. Once you reach a certain speed,
it is less of a thrill to upgrade. Nowadays I only upgrade when something
big craps out.

Yes, I understood (thanks)... but it triggered that question, which
I've been meaning to ask for quite a while but didn't have the
opportunity until yesterday.

Among bread bakers, KAs of the last decade or so are notorious for
stripping their gears and/or burning out. If you then decide to buy a
mixer that can really handle bread dough, you'd then be stuck with a
KA-only grinder and nothing with which to power it.

Look, I have a nice, new KP26M1XPM-Professional-600-Series-6-Quart
sitting on my kitchen table right now. I am sure it'll give me years
of happy use, but I am not doing any serious bread baking with it.
It's cute and ideal for cakes and cookies, but THIS is for bread:

Silverskin and sinew are interchangeable, culinarily speaking.
Tendons are an actual ingredient in many ethnic dishes. Ligaments are
not used are far as I know.

Sinew lies between muscles. Silverskin is usually an extension of a
tendon, but not a tendon as we know it.

Now *These* are tendons:

Mine is a Rival. I got it jes as Rival dropped them and retailers
were clearing their shelves. I think Rival was jes a rebranding, as I
saw them sell for nother few years under the original Kenwood name,
with better models. They were even featured on a couple PBS cooking
shows. I never got around to more than a couple attachments. The
coffee grinder sucked, but I still have the spice grinder attachment.
Despite mine being the cheaper all plastic model, I've had not a bit
of trouble with it and it's still chugging along jes fine.

How serious? A couple pounds at a time-- or 'I just got 100 pounds
of venison that needs to be ground and frozen today?"


I've used a hand grinder for the rare occasions I've needed one, but I
just got a meat grinder for my kitchenaid mixer - mostly for the fruit
and veggie strainer.

I ground up 4 lbs of sirloin yesterday & now I think I'll be eating
better ground beef. It sure made quick work of it-- and it cleans up
like a breeze. The grinder plate and knife is hand wash only, but
the bulk of it goes in the dishwasher.

So-- If you *have* a kitchenaid mixer and don't need to grind 5 pounds
a minute- I would recommend the attachment.

them.

That one seems more like one to use with thinish batters, because I
used to use a spatula that way.

How did they lock one in? I had Canon and could buy Vivitar lenses,
Fuji or Kodak film, 3rd party flashes, etc. There's more of an
attempted lock in with digital ...think proprietary RAW formats, dwnld
software, etc.... but still ways around it. I bypass Canon's horrible
dwnld issues by simply taking out the memory card and hooking it
directly to my linux computer with a card reader.
