What is a Meat Grinder?

Meat grinders, sometimes called "meat choppers," are essential kitchen tools that simplify the process of grinding meat without needing extra accessories. These devices are designed to grind whole pieces of meat into a uniform consistency, removing tendons, cartilage, and other tough bits in the process. Not only does this eliminate the hassle of using sharp, dangerous knives, but it also ensures a clean, safe, and efficient way to grind meat. In today's post, we'll explore some tips for using a meat grinder effectively and highlight a model we highly recommend. ### Tips for Using a Meat Grinder When working with a meat grinder, there are several important things to keep in mind: - Always keep your meat refrigerated until you’re ready to grind it to prevent spoilage. - Avoid using frozen meat, as it can be hard to grind and might even damage the blades. - Don’t overload your grinder; doing so can cause jams and damage the motor. - Chill the metal parts of your grinder by placing them in ice water or the freezer beforehand. This keeps the meat cold and reduces the risk of it sticking. - Regularly change the grinder plates to maintain optimal performance. - Clean your meat grinder thoroughly after each use. Disassemble the parts, soak them in hot soapy water, and dry them completely. - Keep the parts well-lubricated using a silicone spray or food-safe lubricant to ensure smooth operation. ### Hobart’s 4812-36 Bench Type Meat Grinder One of the top models on the market is the Hobart 4812-36 meat chopper.
