look what me been doing


Recommended Posts

CJW. Wish I could bake. Your recipe asks for meat to be minced. Where do you get a mincing machine that is less than £350 + VAT?

 

I used to have a second hand from a butcher who had packed up. Perhaps I should have put a new motor into it. 20/20 hindsight.

 

If ya look on fleabay theres usually hand mincers for under a £5 :) [just needs a bit of arm and effort ;)]

I got a cheap plastic hand mincer with a suction pad that sticks to a work top. I think it was £4.99 can't remember where from though, maybe Yorkshire Trading Company.

I use it to mince raw woodpigeon breasts which I then mix with breadcrumbs, chopped onion or chives, or just sprinkle in mixed herbs, and salt and pepper and an egg yolk and then make into burgers.

Kev. :tongue4:

Lidl only seem to get things like that once and thats it.

 

I've been on the Sausagemaking site and where are a few, hand mincers £30 & £40, big electric one much the same as the one I had for £300 - £450.

 

I don't know why I hate going onto EBay, but I do.

Sauer. I'll keep looking at Lidl, get their stuff through the door each week.

 

I tend to cold-smoke Venison for a number of days before I hot-smoke it. Being a Scot I have not tried Haggis with it.

 

Spent a bit of time on the web this afternoon chasing mincers, both electric and manual. Looks like it will be a manual one. For what I want it for, and being a Scot, the half decent electric one are way too dear.

Tried Argos, nothing.

www.lakeland.co.uk do a plastic hand mincer which has course and fine mincing discs, a cutting blade that tenderises meat and chops onions, plus a pasta attachment for spaghetti, rigatoni and linguine. There's also a nozzle for making sausages. £23.99.

Also a company called Express Gifts have a sight at www.healthhome.co.uk and sell a hand powered meat slicer with adjustable thickness setting. £14.99.

They might be crap though. I only know about them 'cause we print their brochures where I work.

Kevegg. Won't tell honest.

 

A good manual mincer is probaby all I need. I would like to mince some of the meat I feed the dogs. I would also like to mince sone of the meat I have reserved for myself . I smoke a bit of meat and would like to turn some on that smoked meat into sausages.

 

Thanks you all for your suggestions. I think I have been offered the answer. May you all have great fun trying to get the taste you are looking for.
