KitchenAid FGA Food Grinder Attachment for Stand Mixers | Cheap ...
Without the food grinder, I would have to buy preground meat. With the Food Grinder attachment, you have the option of handling that item whichever way you may choose. I am absoultely stunned at how easy it is to put together and how simple it is to get wonderfully ground items out of it. I’ve had no trouble grinding any cut of meat (marbled or lean), type of meat (venison, beef, pork, chicken), or state of meat... For example I buy chicken in large quantities when it is on sale, and grind it up. Adding shredded rye bread, some Italian seasoned bread crumbs , rosemary, and oregano in the mix, and I make a hamburger(chicken)-meat loaf, or meat balls that are... No more late nights with a hand-crank grinder. I’ve used it to prepare food items for my family as well as food items for crowds as large as 200 and regardless of what it is I’ve been making, this attachment has rolled through it without complaint. I bought this attachment at the same time I bought two or three other attachments, and this is the one I use all of the time. It attaches easily to the front of your Kitchen Aid stand mixer, and sits very securely. So unless it is cooked until it is super tender, she doesn’t eat it. With the Kitchen Aid FGA that is all solved. In combination with other pieces such as the sausage stuffer or the fruit attachments, you may well find that this single attachment stays on your machine the longest. I found that grinding meats to be very useful. The ooze is happening where the “”fine” grinding plate (extruder) and /or “knife” (four-bladed) presses against the grind worm. Venison burger meat and sausage processing never went faster. Their are those who find that the best way to buy chicken is whole, that way you can inspect the whole bird. With preground meat that is even more of a concern. After careful washings and tests, the ooze appears to emerge where the outer square end of the grind worm cylinder meets the round washer on the cylinder. I’ve used this attachment more times than I ever thought I would. I think this attachment is the easiest to use of all of the ones I’ve tried. Even the little wooden stomper cleans well (and I’ve felt lost without it when I couldn’t find it during sausage making). I cannot tell if it is the metal wearing away or if it is grease inside the grind worm oozing out. My biggest pleasure in using this attachment is during hunting season when my husband brings home more than one deer. Happens whenever moderate pressure is applied with the food pusher grinding hard cheese. By buying parts, they are able to cut out the unsightlies, and sell the parts.
