The Meat Your Maker #8 .5HP Meat Grinder really did the trick on my Nebraska whtietail deer. Let me know in the comments your favorite sausage recipe or any tips for grinding meat at home. I really enjoyed the complete butchering process of my deer this year.

Man, I missed that you started another channel! My “Meat Your Maker” arrived today, so pumped to start using it.
We have had a great season so far; My daughter took her second ever buck early in the fall and I shot my biggest buck in bow season (155-160) and then I shot another (not quite as big as the first) in our rifle season. Freezer is literally full!

I tried to buy a MEAT Your Maker #32 last Monday. Then the guy told me they couldn't ship it until Friday because they were doing inventory. I had twelve hundred pounds of hanging beef in the pole barn and temperatures were warming too much, so I bought a Walton's #32 and got it on Thursday. What a unit! Unfortunately, I don't think you can buy an American made meat grinder today without spending thousands of dollars. I've called everyone, including MEAT ....only to find out that they're all made in China. 😢
Congratulations on the deer and the grinder! That unit will last you for years to come and save you a lot of money

This is great! So nice having a full freezer!

Good video. The .5 hp is on sale and wasn’t sure if it was big enough but after watching this it should be plenty. I just do 5-10 lb batches of sausage. Thanks

Been cutting our own deer up for 30 years. Zip-locks tend to freezer burn. First rule is date everything when it goes in the freezer.

I prefer LEM grinders, had my #8 for 20 years. No issues out of it, still works great. Just up graded to the LEM #22 dual grind. I do two grinds with it, it's like four grinds with any other grinder. Big time saver on getting a great grind.

Pro Tip, Use a couple slices of white bread to push the remaining meat out of your grinder throat and into your bowl/pan. Also invest in some freezer tape for your wrapping paper, the painter's tape your using will unstick after freezing eventually, lastly, invest in a vacuum packer I use the Cabela's HD Model Series because it was all I could afford at the time but get a good one. You just packed around $70.00 worth of Ground Meat there. Plus you handled it with your own hands and know exactly what went into it! Kudos for adding the Beef fat at the ratio you did! Keep on Hunting!

Good video. 1 quick tip, you were using the plunger upside down. Obviously works regardless! Again, I enjoyed watching.

Great video!!!Love my 1.5 meat your maker grinder

Good video, invest in vacuum sealing worth it if u are doing the hard work already

[robertrebello]

Is it worth the effort of keeping an ice bowl under the bowl the meat is collected in out of the grinder? Seems like it isn’t in the bowl long enough to matter before it goes back into the freezer/refrigerator.

Does the grinder bog down when you jam meat in it?

[TheWhitetailrancher]

Might I suggest that you consider switching to the meteric system when doing your sausage making. Kilograms and grams etc. it is far more accurate and repeatable. Much easier to control your recipes as well. YES, I know it seems daunting t first, but believe me friend you will catch on VERY quickly and never look back!

What's the best way to remove the guard on meat tray?

[MusicalWeasel]

Got an update video on it since it’s been 6 months?

Great product! Customer service is terrible! Bought a grinder and within a month they put out a sale for $100 off. They told me that they can't give me the discount. Bad buisness!
