Products BigBite #8 Meat Grinder, 0.5 HP Commercial-Quality Stainless Steel Electric Meat Grinder for Home Use, Heavy-Duty Food Processor for Grinding, Sausage Stuffing, Cooking

Very impressed with this grinder. I’ve ground up two deer and breakfast sausage and ground meat. Very happy with it. Never bogged down as much as I tried. The opening for #8 is smaller than the #12 I had but it worked very good. Not loud either. Very impressed how quiet it is. It was easy to clean after using it. There is also a drawer where all the parts fit in for safe keeping.

Why should you buy this? Or any meat grinder for that matter? I got it because I want to know what’s in my ground meat. I also bought some Brisket/Chuck pre made burger patties at my local supermarket and I thought “Wow, these are really good”. But I really didn’t want to pay that much for a better quality meat all the time. My family eats a lot of hamburger, and brisket per pound is cheaper than ground beef. I just keep my eyes open for sales. Now you know why I wanted a meat grinder, why chose this one? LEM products have a good reputation for quality. And this grinder proves that reputation is well earned. The unit is well made and I think it’s pretty quiet for what it is. I guessing about the same as my kitchen aid mixer. It is heavy. I placed it on a rolling cart and that is where it stays. I think it would be inconvenient to carry around and place on the table or counter for use every time for most people. When I use this meat grinder it chews up partly frozen chunks of beef or pork just as fast as I can feed it in and I’ve not noticed the motor struggling at all doing it. I ground a 20lb Angus brisket that I cut up in to 2”-3” pieces and placed in the freezer for 45 minutes before grinding it in less than 5 minutes using the bigger plate and It easily could have done it faster. A second grind using the smaller plate does take a little longer as I had to use the stomper to push the meat into the auger. Even so start to finish it was less than 20 minutes. Assembly and clean up is really easy. Just wash in hot soapy water. It is dishwasher safe. (Not the motor, of course) I expect this meat grinder will last for decades if it’s cared for and used how I use it. (6-8 times a year.)

I would recommend this lem big bite #32 to anyone that packages they’re own meat/ makes they’re own pet food! It worked amazing and is super fast for making your own hamburger, but I also make my own pet food which could be pretty hard on a meat grinder! This thing will chew up chicken bones as fast as you can throw them in there like it’s nothing. Keep noted that I make tons of dog food at once to store away. It really didn’t have any time to rest while I was doing it and still it didn’t get hot or even sound like it was wearing on the motor. Cleaning was easy as well for the most part. It’s never fun cleaning up stuff like this, but for all the money you save by packaging your own meat I would say it’s worth it. It’s also very well made. Everything seams sturdy and works as advertised and then some! I didn’t expect it to eat up bones so easy! It is pretty expensive but in the long run it will save me tons of money by packaging meat myself. It’s crazy how expensive processed food is compared to buying in bulk and doing it on your own!

This is a fantastic grinder. It’s been a joy to use. I make my own raw dog food blend of 5-8 different meat blended with raw vegetables and it makes it fast and easy. I also grind small bones (beef, lamb, chicken) and this handles them with no problem. I’ve had it for 6 months with no problems. ‘ It’s easy to clean, disassembles quickly. There are no plastic parts to wear out and the stainless is good quality. I’ve run it continuously for 20 minutes with minimal heat build up. It is large and, if you’re petite, it’s heavy if you’re lifting it but can be managed with a little extra ‘muscle’. I store mine covered, in the corner of my counter under the overhang of a cabinet because I don’t always have any ‘extra muscle’ around when I need it. <:>) I think this big boy can handle most meat processing jobs you might have and it also comes with a sausage making attachment if you want to try that. I like this machine. Glad I spent the extra money and didn’t go with something cheaper.

First, I don't have a lot of experience with grinding meat and what experience I do have was with a small Oster food grinder. Second, I have only used my new grinder once but I did grind about 20lbs of pork and about 8 pounds of turkey. So, you should consider those two things when reading my review, My first impression of this grinder was it was heavier than I had expected. It's not a problem, just an observation. The next impression I had was how well constructed it looked. Just by looks, it appears this product was built to last. Next I spent some time getting familiar with the parts of the grinder. Then, I assembled it to get ready for my first grind. The parts all fit easily and I like the accessory draw built into the unit. All of the grinding plates and the cutter fit into it easily. After assembly, I turned the grinder on and the sound it made was probably the most surprising thing about this grinder. I mean, it's big, it's heavy, and it's a heavy-duty machine, surely, it must be loud too. My assumption was wrong, this grinder emits less noise than the small Oster grinders I had used in the past. Now for the actual grinding operation. I started with a coarse grind and the grinder made easy work of the pork I was feeding it...I had to hurry just to keep up with it. I see why they call it the "Big Bite" now. After chilling the coarse ground pork, I did the final fine grind. This grind is not as fast as the first coarse grind but it's still fairly easy. Even though a small amount of silver skin got into the grinder, I did not experience any clogs during my initial use. So, after one use, I am very happy with the Big Bite I purchased and feel I got a good value for what I spent on this grinder.

First off, we are considered a small scale processor. We do over 100 deer, 50 cattles and 200 hogs a year. The first lem we had was a #12 and it did a great job for 3 years. We used it every day and then it started leaking grease, so we decided to up grade to this big boy. The one we recieved was definitely a return. It had bumps, scratches and dried meat on it. Cleaned it up and gave her a go. It ground 15 lbs of meat in 5 minutes. We did a rough test grind on this batch meaning we intentionally didn't cut out some silver skin to see how good of a grind we got. The grinder was able to remove all sliver skin and left very even grind. See picture for reference. That's beef. The size of the machine is double what our #12 was and the parts are heavy but they are solid. All the pieces are large and dishwasher safe. We put all pieces on the bottom of the dishwasher for sanitation and it works perfectly. This is a great machine for anyone wanting to do their own meat. Great for beginners. We started out as backyard butchers and have slowly evolved into needing a huge machine. The value for the money is on point. This machine is a little more than off name but it's worth the warranty and customer service that comes with the lem brand.

Monster grinder. We make our own raw dogfood and this #22 LEM grinder has really made the job simple. We put whole thighs and leg quarters directly into the grinder and it doesn’t slow down a bit. We’re grinding 80-100 lbs of chicken at a time. It has changed our whole process. So much easier. It’s expensive, but is an awesome investment

I've had it for 3 harvest seasons now and am so happy I spent the money and got this machine. It works for you and speeds up processing. Everything is made well and the motor is strong. It's a simple machine with few parts. Money well spent. Putting the meat in the freezer to get it cold, not rock solid frozen, is a help on not over heating the machine on small grind.

I have to see it is really annoying! I spent about £412.4 to buy a lem mightybite grinder in August 2025 and hoped to use it with a peaceful mind for a reylong period of time. We used it a couple of times every week with a medium load. For a heavy duty grinder, it should be fine. However, only about 4 months later, the machine stopped working. Completely! Now it is just like a piece of heavy metal in the box! Of course the machine is not cheap! More importantly it is affecting our work in the kitchen. Very soon I contacted the seller FarOutPro for help on 4th January this year. The initial response from FarOutOro is that their management team is considering my case and asked me to wait for some time. I thought it is ok at least they are considering. Then they said I should contact the manufacturer directly for replacement. Then I found out the manufacturer is in America but I am in the UK. Then I told FarOutPro the situation and asked whether they could help me to get the replacement on my behalf on 15th January. About 2 weeks past there is no any more response from the seller. Firstly I am very disappointed about the quality of this £400 plus machine! Secondly I am very disappointed about the after sale service of the seller FarOutPro! They have plenty of machines in stock but chose not to help their customer with an urgent replacement. We haven’t had a proper grinder in our kitchen for about a month! I try to be patient but have to write this review. I didn’t want to rate this machine and the seller’s service at this moment. I wait for the replacement and how the new machine performs. However, amazon system gives me no choice but to choose a rating. Thank you very much for spending time to read this feedback.

lo usaba para alimento barf de mi perro, si tritura huesos pero cabe mencionar que no le metí huesos de pollo muy grandes. pero si me funcionó para muslos, alas, y sobre todo para pechuga con hueso que son mas frágiles que los de muslo.

Can not be used in uk even with adapters plugs I’ve phoned electricians and they don’t know. What do I use to get it working in uk what plug or what ever do I need to use in uk please answer my question
