For better than a decade now, my Partner and I have been churning out Sausage, Burger and so much more.
Through that time, we've gone through a series of grinder / stuffer units.
Kind of thought when we got the last one, that would be it:
And it has served us well. At this point it has consumed hundreds upon hundreds of pounds of pork & venison, and in fact is still running like new today.
But as with Boats, it seems we can also suffer from the More Horsepower affliction.
About a month ago, I told my Buddy I would likely be looking at latching onto a One Horsepower Commercial Grinder this coming summer - once I'm back working and so have a little jingle that is.
Couple weeks went by, and he called noting Cabela's in Nanaimo had that same model on, for Over $ 200.00 OFF!
Huh? Really??
Had to do a little "creative accounting", but once I determined that price was real, we Pounced!
And today I assembled this Monster Unit for the first time:
Man-O-Man! This thing is HUGE! 60 Pounds dry weight!
Methinks it would have little problem eating an entire Moose all by it's self!
This in indeed what I call a Serious "Upgrade"!
Now looking forward to putting it through it's paces. My Bow-Hunting Partner is planning on wandering over later this week, and dragging along the Feral Pig he shot last fall. Turning that Beast into a whole pile of Polish Hunter Sausages should prove to be a Good Test methinks!
Right Looking Forward!!!
