    Parksider Well…I just started a part time gig at a new butcher shop. Talk about hog heaven! It’s not much different than home projects but there is a whole lot of it and I get to dirty someone else’s kitchen!

              dennishoddy PapaSop So last weekend I was at the clubhouse pulling the meat from the freezer and saw the grinder head sitting there, and tossed it into the freezer overnight. I actually think it did help move the product through and I like to grind semi-frozen anyway so by the time a chopped up 100 pounds of pork and tossed that in the freezer, ground the semi thawed venison then back to the pork everything just flew through and it was still cold when i was done.
              To me this is exactly what Meatgistics is for! We can shorten the learning curve by sharing since we don’t process meat everyday!

              Thanks fellas!

                  Yep, with my big grinds in the 25-30 # range, putting the head in freezer ahead of time it has always stayed cold throughout the grinding process.

                    PapaSop Parksider I have always put the entire head assembly in the freezer prior to grinding, usually try to get it in there the night before. If I forget then I will put it in there for at least a couple hours.

                      AdamCA Yup, grinder head in the freezer for a few hours first is always a good plan. We have an ice tray in our freezer that we use specifically for this to speed up the cooling, unfortunately sometimes ice cubes get stuck to it and then I have to freeze my hands trying to pull them off. The first time that happened I litteraly ran hot water over it to get rid of them…not the dumbest thing I’ve ever done but close.
