That meat grinder you guys use on deer, do you know who makes it for Cabela's? I found a Rand model with a 1.5 HP motor, it seems pretty decent.

    Hard on the side of my head.
    I just learned to stay out of his way.
    There's been streetfights, blue lights,
    Long nights with the world sittin' on my chest:
    It just showed me how much I could take.
    Hard times, bad luck.
    Sometimes, life sucks.
    That's all right, I'm ok.
    It ain't nothin' but another day.

    He's got the 1.5hp one. I just got done looking through flea bay for grinders. They have some 1 and 1.25hp's going for around $150 - $200, not sure of the brand names though. A old hunting buddy of mine was a meat cutter and I only ever heard him mention Hobart in the line of grinders so I don't know which ones are good and which aren't.
    I hate to fork out 4 or 5 hundred on a grinder.

    Susp, I bought one a few years ago from K' Merchandise that is great and ran me 80 bucks. Said on the instructions it can grind 2lbs a minute. It's a Oster, i've ground alot of deer, and even used it to grind turkey after everyone is had their fill. I use a coarse blade and make turkey salad out of leftovers.

    Better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool!!

    taco that sounds kinda girlyish, turkey salad. [;)][;)]

    just kidding! Oster huh. I remember seeing some of those listed on ebay. I'll check them out. Thanks!

    I just got some of my deer dogs and trail back last weekend and boy is it good. I hope to attempt stuffing sausage or maybe deer dogs once we get a bigger grinder.

    OK the kitchen loving woman is here... Oster makes pretty good products and they are worth what you pay. Kichenaid makes a wonderful professional mixer that also has a grinder attachment. It will run you about 400-450 for the entire set up but it is a multi tasker and I can not begin to tell you how much I LOVE mine.

    its all about pucks and bucks

    You mean just grinding right? It takes me 40 - 60 minutes just to skin and de-bone one. Maybe I'm being to picky and getting every inch of meat. [:D]

    no just the grinding takes that long. I remember the old days when the older guys would recruit us young pups so we could grind the meat with a hand grinder. the sausage tasted so much better with that one than the new grinder
