    I’m feeling a little confident here. Just happened to notice with my order that the Sure Cure comes in an orange package. Hmm.

      Ok, in that I just got a great Waltons 11# stuffer, I decided to take back my Cabelas #5 meat grinder, because I found that they are no longer suppling parts for it, like the plates and the cutter. After I drove an hour to get there, they would not give me my money back. They would only give me a store credit. Why is it my fault that they dont supply parts on what was a life time product. So I ended up buying their #12, Pro DC 1/2 HP grinder to use their store credit. Plus the store manager got very rude/insulting with me. Really!!! I wont be going there anymore. What I wanted to do, was to get my money back, so I could get a Waltons grinder.

        I ordered a 11# sausage stuffer from Cabelas. I ended up taking it back because it just didnt work right and it was from a open box. So I just ordered a new Waltons 11# stuffer. I was so impressed with their video. It was on sale for a great price too. Plus the deliver was awesome in 2 days wow. Does anyone else have this same sausage stuffer? What do you think about it and do you have any advise. Thanks.

        Little Baby Teddy I’ve got that one as well and love it. I’ve had it for almost two years and never had an issue with it.

          Thanks it good to know. Wish that I could find pork butt on sale. Now 3 week ago it was all you wanted for .99 cents per LB. Now it near to $2.99 per LB. Love to try out my new machine.

            PapaSop Nice seasoning choices as well! Little Baby Teddy What do the plates look like? a #5 knife should be a #5 knife but a plate might lock in a few different ways and they can’t all be used for each one. Let me know and I will see if we have a plate that will fit!

              Just looked at Sam’s Club for pork butts. 1.28lb in case lots. Average 8 butts per case 65-70lbs. Price of membership would be worth it. Hmm.

                    Little Baby Teddy i just took back the DC Pro unused for a full instore credit refund. I found out the DC Pro has all plastic main drive gears that strip out in time. So instead I bought their 1/2 Hp Carnivore #8 model 5 star review. More money but what can you do with a store credit. Upgrade.

                      Well today I used my 11 # Stuffer. All I can say is: THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST STUFFER I HAVE EVER USED. It is high quality. It fill my 17mm collagen snack stick casing like nothing. Eazy fill. Plus it filled my 1Lb freezer bags in seconds. Top quality machine for sure. Only lesson and not being use to it, I let go if the handle while it was still under pressure and it flew back and hit me in the hand. My other stuffer never went back like that. I now make certain that I back off at least a full turn before I let go stuffing. This is a great high quality stuffer for sure.

                        I have a question about stuffers in general. I have the 7# stuffer with the helical gears on top, inexpensive and does a nice job. However when doing smaller diameter snack sticks it become a struggle to rotate the handle to apply pressure to the mince. Do the two speed stuffers have some sort of gear reduction built into the transmissions?

                          39Buick to my understanding the top high gear is only to be used to left the piston quickly off of the meat. It is not to be used to stuff the meat. To stuff the meat you always have to use the low bottom grear. Otherwise you may strip the gears.

                            Little Baby Teddy I appreciate the help. I had read that on the product page. I was trying to determine if the gear ratio was different on the units with the gear case rather than the helical geared units. I have read posts where folks had done 16mm snack sticks and claim the stuffing process was effortless! This is not the case with my cheap little stuffer!

                              39Buick I have stuffed 16mm cases on my 11 lb several times. While I would not call it effortless, it is certainly manageable, especially since I screwed the press to a piece of plywood to make it easy to clamp down to the work table.

                                Brianh Thanks so much for your help! I clamp my stuffer to the edge of the counter top and it is rock solid but it does take considerable effort to crank the handle using the smaller casings. I wouldn’t think it would be an engineering marvel to make the gear reduction system for these stuffers!

                                    If you use an 11 pound stuffer, do you need to run it close to capacity to get best results? Pretty new to sausage making an looking to upgrade (leaning toward a 7lb)

                                      I have the 7lb stuffer myself and it’s a very good stuffer. I do a lot of five and ten lb. Batches and I believe the 11lb stuffer would save a lot of time refilling. You don’t have to run them at full capacity they work fine with just a couple of hands full in them

                                          39Buick I have used both and while what Little Baby Teddy says is absolutely correct about the top gear, the dual-speed stuffers do make stuffing easier. My belief is that this has something to do with energy loss with the screw system vs the gears turning and push the slotted rack down.
