    The smaller LEM mixers that attach to their grinders are advertised as 25 pound mixers. Is that the one you have? Just curious cause I have their 20 pound and there is no way it will attach to a grinder.

      Hey guys, been a minute!!! Dropping in to order some steak spice and thought I’d see what’s going on in Meatgistis Land…
      I’ve owned and destroyed ever size mixer know to man. Even had a welder reinforce some of the parts to no avail.
      If you’re putting cure in the mix for ANYTHING you’re making just save your pennies, troll facebook marketplace and the auction site, find a closing grocery store or pizza joint and get a Hobart A120 mixer. They are designed for the stress of the restaurant business are are durable enough to last with knuckleheads like me running the snot out of them. Game changer for our entire operation.
      Hope everyone is well, FL is great but not processing just feels wrong…

            Sorry been under the weather for a few days, but I got the mixer and when separated from the stand it is not that huge. It is very washable in a sink with a little imagination and in a deep it is no problem.

                            Update on 50# mixer. I finally got the time to use the mixer and I just can’t say enough positive things about the mixer. I did two batches both a little over 15lbs and the protein extraction was phenomenal to say the least. The spices and liquid were distributed very quickly and evenly.

                            I found that just as Jonathan said in the video when you tilt the pan >98% of the meat was emptied into the lug with just basic scrapping of the side walls and paddles to finish the process.

                            Clean up is a breeze, take off 4 wingnuts and the pan separates from the stand. The paddles come out with just a simple turn of a knob. It’s just as easy to put back together and get another batch going.

                            I don’t know what the true minimum is because it had no problem at all with my batch size, I never once had to push any product back down it all got mixed. This is a real mixer that surpassed my expectations, so if you are contemplating getting a mixer don’t hesitate to buy this model it’s a winner.

                                samspade In all honesty the 20 would have worked fine for me, but my body is just too wore out to be cranking a handle, so I went with the motorized function and I absolutely do not regret it.

                                      mrobisr 15 years ago I would have laughed at needing another machine to power there turning of the handle…now I sweat if I have to turn the crank manually on a sausage stuffer. I spoke to Rebecca Thisthlewaite yesterday for the podcast. She works with Oregon State University and their Niche Meat Processing Assistance (https://www.nichemeatprocessing.org/) she takes health as seriously as I used to. Sort of inspired me to get back into shape. Shes probably my age and looks significantly younger!

                                        Adding a grinder drivin meat mixer was a game changer for me. I’m still using a hand crank stuffer but have started looking at an electric one, lol. No problem for sausage but I really enjoy my snack sticks.
