    I might take a chance with my Cuisinart to make a small batch and see what happens. If it blows up just another project to work on and a reason to get a buffalo chopper

      YooperDog They work just fine. Wouldn’t want to make 100# though.

      It’s all about the duck fat.

        Fat_Bob Yeah I was figuring about a 5lb batch. Maybe make some liver sausage, can’t find a decent one up here.

          Fat_Bob YooperDog I was thinking about 5-10 lbs. (probably more like the 10). I figure even breaking it up into 3-4 batches is less fuss (or less time) than doing a third grind with my #12. I might be surprised, but I also like options.

            Fat_Bob do you mix seasonings in when you put it in the processor?

              Check out this guy, Ekkehard the German butcher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buvTcn9fBcY&t=217s
              He uses a Ninja with small batches. I have followed his method and it works OK. His recipes are not well described so I’m still fighting to find a good bologna recipe. I just got a Waltons bologna and frank spice mix so will that a shot.

                RJ Adventures I do add powdered spices from American Spice I can’t make. I also dehydrate herds I grow and grind but can’t get as fine of powder. Just ordered some 304 S.S. ,120 micron mesh screen to try putting them through for a finer end product.

                It’s all about the duck fat.

                  Fat_Bob now are you talking about putting the entire meat blend through that, or what’s the micron filtering for? Last time I made my hot dogs (only my 2nd time) they weren’t bad, still had some fat particles randomly that didn’t break down in the “paste” but I ground everything 4 times without adding ice technically, because I just put it in the deep freeze till the surface was firm then ground again… then mixed a bunch and obviously added all that water then… thats why I was wondering if it would be better to bowl chop the meat till it was well broken down, then add all the seasonings and additives

                    RJ Adventures The filter screen is to process my ground herds through to try and get a more powder consistency to them. I grind the meat first (twice) then use the Cuisinart to emulsify it adding water as needed and my seasonings.

                      We had a cuisinart and have used it several times until I practically burned it out. Do small batches because the large motor heats up the meat to quick. Give the processor a rest between sessions because of heat and over heating. I bought the wife a breville for a replacement a year ago and it is better with heat but less power and it overloads pretty quick and will shut off thermally which sucks! Again small batches… Be careful with the suregell because it turns the batter into glue and puts more stress on the machine. My 2 cents!

                        Pivodog thanks! I may just work on getting that chopper and use it! Would hate to burn up such an expensive piece of equipment for some homemade dogs! Haha

                          I think that you can do it but just break up the batch into smaller amounts and then add them all together at the end. One of the downfalls is that you should also partition up the spices, salt, etc.

                            RJ Adventures I’ve been using mine for dogs several years and never had a heating issue. Keep good brushes in the motor and you’ll be fine.
