Vertical vs. Horizontal Stuffers - merits of either?
-
When I made sausage we borrowed a Dakota Water stuffer and it was horizontal, and it’s a pain the a s s to stuff it full of meat without having meat clear up your arm. I would think vertical would be much easier to load. Evening turning that water stuffer vertical it was still a pain to load.

I haven’t used a vertical yet, but plan to buy one. My horizontal is a pain to load. As far as actual stuffing performance it’s great!

ClaytonD The only advantage I have ever heard of with the horizontal ones is that you don’t have to clamp it down to a table like you do with verticals.

Jonathon I’d disagree with that statement, it is much easier even with two people to have the horizontal stuffer we used clamped down, I guess if you aren’t using a water stuff, then the hoses pulling on it, it might now be as big of an issue.

Tex_77 Okay, cool, I hadn’t ever used one I had just heard that argument. In general, I think the vast majority of them nowadays are vertical because it is a better design.

My horizontal is just a 5lb, it dosen’t need clamped to stuff, but when you tilit it up to load it would be nice.

SupplySergeant Do you have someone hold it down when you stuff? I can’t stand the rocking when stuffing snack sticks. Now, I am almost always stuffing by myself so if I had one hand to hold the base while I turned the handle that would be a different story!
