skycat 6,174 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Why mince tripe up? I just cut it up into chunks about the size of a fag packet or slightly larger. Takes me about 10 minutes to carve up a 20lb tripe: just hang it from a hook, get a really sharp knife and cut bits off into a bucket stood below. Bag it into what you need per day and bung in the freezer. Dogs actually digest large chunks of meat etc much better than stuff that is already mashed up by a mincer. Plus you'd need a mega industrial mincer to cope with tripe as it is so rubbery: blunts knives and mincer blades very fast too. Link to post Share on other sites

big country 8 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I get my tripe from the abattoir if i do want it minced i ask them to do it.But i think the terriers like it in chunks so they can get right in about it.Used to to get it minced for the pups.But it is up to you Link to post Share on other sites

HUnter_zero 58 Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) hello mate are the lidl ones easy to clean and maintain? do you have to portion the rabbits quite small to feed through and will they take the skin cheers The small ones from lidl will not mince bone or skin, I knacker two with in weeks! The machines are good for small jobs, sausage stuffing and mincing meat 'off' the bone portions etc. I was lucky and found an industrial butchers mincer, big old machine and very heavy too. Now that makes short work of everything from rabbits skinned but on the bone to a whole deer carcass (obviously not on the bone). Northern tool sells hand mincers which are good but if you are to do a lot of meat processing then it's well worth looking at local auctions for a proper job, I only paid £25 for mine but had to buy a blade for £15. The machine is worth well over £1000 but it goes to show that the machines are out there and at silly prices if you just look for them.
