Description

Upgrade your food processing routine with a LEM Products 22 BigBite Meat Grinder, a powerful grinder perfect for hunters, food processors, chefs, and culinary enthusiasts who desire to make their own foods. The BigBite technology allows the auger to grab hefty "bites" of meat from the pan and draws them through the large-diameter throat, where the rifled head quickly feeds them through the grinder, providing faster and more efficient grinding. The grinder includes a stainless steel knife, head, auger, large meat pan, coarse and fine plates, stuffing plate, 3 stuffing tubes, and a plastic meat stomper. A storage drawer is located beneath the grinder head for plates and accessories for added convenience. Our Meat Grinder is easy to use and also boasts a noise-dampening design for quieter performance. Whether you're looking to make better quality chilis, burgers, sausages, or even create a raw diet for your pet without unnecessary fillers, this grinder allows you to process a wide range of meats, including beef, pork, lamb, mutton, venison, and deer. The 22 BigBite Grinder can also process chicken bones. Our professional-grade grinders are easy to use, easy to clean, and considerably quieter than other electric meat grinders.

Outstanding meat grinder. Couldn’t be happier!!!

Update - Amazing! The auger and feed chute are the perfect combination. Cut your meat into strips and drop it into the chute. No pushing required. It feeds right through. It took me less than 3 minute to grind 5 pounds of meat for the first grind. Second grind took a little longer because I had to push the ground meat into the chute. This thing grinds so fast that the meat was still ice cold after the second grind. No need to go back to the freezer. What you should know. Skip the bones. I bought some veal stew meat and assumed it was boneless. One piece was not and it jammed in the machine. There is no reverse and it took some time to get it out. Just skip the bones you rip be happier for it. Unplugging it is no fun at all! I also absolutely love that the tray is so large - width and depth that I can get ALL of the meat, first and second grind, in it without having to refill. Initial impressions Lem makes several meat grinders differentiated by the plate size. This #22 takes 3 1/4 inch grinding plates. There is also the Big Bite, #12. I debated between the two and decided that I just wanted to own a really tough meat grinder and not have to buy a new $79 one each year. So, the #22 has arrived. It is big, really big. You should know the #12 weighs approximately 38 lbs and the #22 weighs 49.6 lbs. If you are not into storing/carry heavy appliances, the I suggest you go with the #12. #22 is a beast. The grinding plates are as big as my palm and solid! If you have never used a meat grinder before, and to buy this you likely have, there is an instruction manual. It opens to the middle, which is the schematic. It took me a few seconds to get the other pages to open. Just seemed like a think bi-fold document at first. The instructions are straightforward. The same as any other grinder. Cold meat, keep hands out (and yes, this chute is large enough for your hand to fit but there is a lockout that will shut it down), use plunger. The only thing that gives me pause is, there is no "reverse". Simple on and off. I have used reverse only a few times on other grinders and it was handy. However, it is not something I use a lot and if I do get a plug, I suppose taking it apart will work fine. In short, this is my dream meat grinder. Yes, I have meat grinder dreams every time a cheap on breaks I dream of something better. I will be using it this weekend and I will come back to update this review. ... show more

    • Perfect for my raw food dog food.
Style: Grinder Size: #22
I recently started making my own dog food. I decided that I needed to purchase a meat grinder and I wanted to make sure I didn't have to purchase again. This was a big big item purchase for me. I have only used it once so far. It was very efficient and I knew as soon as I used it I had made the right choice. I was able to grind chicken thighs and drumsticks with ease. They went through like butter. The machine is very easy to use and clean. I will be buying my meats in bulk and more than likely using once a month for my dogs raw food diet. I also think I will start doing my own grinding for myself and family. I am even considering making home made sausage. This is a very powerful machine and I expect it will give me many years of use. Now I just need to find a cover for storage. I highly recommend this grinder for anyone who feeds raw and wants to include bones. ... show more

I make 120 batches of homemade dog food. I started with the Kitchen Aid grinder kit, then the STX Turboforce 3000 (that broke on the first batch), then the Weston #12 (too slow for me) and ended up here with this machine. Coincidentally I just made my first batch of raw food which contains chicken thigh quarters, chicken organ meat, frozen vegetables and brown rice. I fed some of the leg quarters in cut apart into two pieces. Some I just cut in at the joint, straightened them and fed the whole thing in. The LEM #22 grabbed hold of them, ground them and spit them out the front (large grinding plate) with no sign of bogging down. This is an expensive piece of equipment, but if you're making batches the size of mine every two weeks, you need something with at least this much power. It cut my batch time from four hours to two. The storage drawer holds all the spare plates and auger puller. The only negative I can add is that I wish there was a grinding plate with larger openings, as I don't like the the size of vegetable grind that comes out with the largest plate. Other machines I've used had that component. It's also REALLY heavy, but that comes with the turf. ... show more

My new 1hp grinder drawer will not stay closed. I called CS and they were very nice and quickly sent me a replacement. I got the replacement and it failed for the same reason. Again I called CS and they were nice and quickly sent me a second replacement. I got the replacement and it failed for the same reason. I can only wonder what level of QC the company has. I own a 1/2hp (10+ yrs) and it has served me well. Details: Pull the drawer out and flip it over. You will see in the middle a circular shape with a raised angle of plastic in the middle. The angle if correct (CS sent me a proper picture) will be a "checkmark" or "hook like" shape. That hook is what locks the drawer shut until you press the drawer in to release it. All THREE of my new drawers do not have the small hook shape. Pics with & without shown. 11/23/22: I now have a working drawer. It took a while. CS was always easy to contact and nice. All of this was about the plastic drawer, the grinder is 5 star. ... show more
