<![CDATA[New/old Stuffer]]>processhead I may be asking for advice on some clean up soon. The wife and I hooked up the camper and are spending a long weekend in Ohio Amish country. While we were hitting all of the local fare today I ran across an Amish estate auction. There were 2 old screw driven stuffers and I picked up one for 60 bucks. It is fully functional with all the parts except the stuffer tubes. Its a Landers, Frary and Clark 8 qt. It needs a little TLC, but I’m excited about the purchase.

I have one just like it picked up at a flea market for $20. Had small plate and strainer basket with strainer on bottom. You can buy the large plate for these on line. Used mine a long time before finally replacing with electric but it still works great.

Brecht Butchers Supply Co to Brecht Co. so this possibly could pre-date that

glen If you don’t find anyone you want to give it to, Walton’s would be happy to take it, mauybe do some cleaning up and then run a Meatgistics only giveaway and we would pay for shipping? Just an option!

Just gonna throw this out there…if the Walton’s team were to make a video or meatgistics post to show one of they many ways of how to restore one ,that could be really beneficial to the community. And I’m guessing that if people were to be using these older models it wouldn’t be long before they upgraded.

processhead don’t know if there is a second plate, the attached plate is marked SMALL

If you manage to get the strainer out, you might find the large plate at the bottom of the stuffer.
Mine was missing the large plate.

They originally came with two plates. One large for stuffing and one smaller for use with the strainer. They will be marked as such on the top side. The second one may be under the strainer basket.

I lack both the means to restore it and no place to display it

stuffer 2.jpg stuffer 3.jpg stuffer 4.jpg

I don’t know if the strainer basket is salvageable, it won’t come out (didn’t try to force it)
There is a lock nut and a tube in the basket
All rust appears to be surface rust but I can’t see inside because of the strainer basket
Screw and gears work

Jonathan are you still interested?

Usually a little wire brushing in soap and hot
water will remove what little is still stuck on the surface after it comes out of the bucket.

The fluid is water, mixed with 1 tablespoon of cleaning soda (not baking soda) per gallon of water. Do not over-concentrate the solution. I run my manual battery charger at the 15 amp setting. There are many you-tube videos on the subject. I just cleaned 3 10" cast iron skillets using this method. Took 14 hours for the quickest one, and 24 hours for the worst one. Science is fun!

It appears that it was used last to render lard.

All that you need is a 12 volt automotive battery charger, plastic container and washing soda.
Best bet is to fully disassemble before-hand to get everything cleaned thoroughly.
After cleaning, re-season like you would a cast iron skillet.
