Can I use grinder to cut meat?
Use a sharp knife to cut your meat into pieces\u2014how small you should go will depend on the size of your grinder's opening, but most at-home grinders will require 1-to-2-inch pieces. Don't forget to remove the skin if your cut came with it attached, being sure to leave most of the fat attached to the meat.How does the blade go on a meat grinder?
The number of holes in the grinder plate will vary by the diameter of the plate, so basically the larger the plate the more holes the plate can have. Example: 3/4" plate for a #10/12 grinder may have 5 holes while a #22 grinder plate may have 6 holes.Sharpening a Meat Grinder's Knife \u0026 Plate
