Our verdict

A heavy-duty electric grinder for home processors who butcher meat or make sausage by the batch. It is a hefty machine for a counter or shelf, so it fits keen hobbyists more than occasional users.

Overview

LEM builds the BigBite as a stainless steel electric grinder with a half horsepower motor. It handles grinding as well as sausage stuffing for home use.

Steel construction and the motor power suit regular use in a home kitchen. The limitation is mass and size, and the listing gives few details on plates, blades or accessories.

Who it's for

Hunters and home cooks who process meat in bulk get the use out of this class of machine. A casual burger maker may find a smaller grinder or a food processor enough.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Half horsepower motor
  • Stainless steel construction
  • Handles grinding and sausage stuffing
  • Rated for regular home use
Cons
  • Heavy and bulky to store
  • Included plates and blades not listed
  • Listing details are sparse

Performance notes

Throughput depends on motor power and the plate size used, and keeping meat very cold prevents smearing in the grinder. Lower speed cuts heat build-up, which helps with fat and texture.
