Title: Works amazing for a small machine
Review: Wow this actually surprised me. I was expecting something flimsy something slow and this was the exact opposite. I wish there was a way to make a bigger one that’s also lightweight but a bigger throat intake. It’s worth every penny for standard kitchen use. Highly recommend. I use it to make chum out of greenbacks and small fish like finger mullet. nothing crazy works amazing

Title: Powerful, but make sure to cut the pieces of meat down
Review: So far, it’s been working great for me. I did trip the overload once because I did not cut the meat chunks small enough. They need to be cut fairly small, and when they are, this machine works great. No issue at all making sausage. I figure this grinder will pay for itself in just a few more months.

Title: LEM #8 Mighty Bite Meat Grinder
Review: I bought this to turn bulk beef into burger, as well as to grind pork for sausage. I also plan to make links of various sizes and ingredients. When it arrived it was well packaged. Everything was in good condition. It was a few days until I found a large (almost 5#) beef roast on sale. Today was the test run. I thoroughly washed all the parts which would contact the meat. It has a coating of oil on these parts to protect from rust, this needed to be removed. Everything fit together very well, simple to assemble. The feeder pan simply fits onto the standing feeder tube, no screws to hold it on, but not needed, a very good snug fit. I had cubed the beef, mixed spices onto the cubes before grinding. I started the machine on the ‘stuffer’ setting, which is half speed. It gobbled the chunks like a starved pit bull, ejected beautiful burger. I ground it using the large 10mm plate, so it was course ground. I should have added some fat to the mix, as the resulting mince barely held together (my fault, not the grinders). I made a couple burgers, very lean and large. There was no lake o’ grease in the skillet as with market ground beef. My heavens, it tasted like a hamburger! You know what I mean, right? The burger already ground usually doesn’t have much taste at all, so it’s a bust as far as flavor goes. These big round discs of minced cow actually had the burger flavor I’d been missing! The burgers had an actual ‘crust’ to them too, thanks to the lack of grease. There was a LOT of burger left, so off into the trusty zip-lock bags and into the freezer! I took the hint to feed it a slice of bread as a final step to push all the meat through, worked like a charm. I disassembled it, hand washed it using a sponge and bristled bottle brush, got every crack, crevice, and cranny totally clean, easy as pie. Put it back together and it’s patiently waiting for our next adventure.I’ve used a hand grinder before, and that isn’t a pleasure cruise, thank you very much. I bought a boston butt today for $1.29/ pound. Add the price of spices and I have perfect home made sausage for less than $1.50/ pound! I know what went into it, how much fat, how much spice, everything. I anticipate this paying for itself pretty quickly from processing bulk meat on sale into burgers, loose sausage, and links. Plus, it’s just fun, folks! If I get lucky, Bambi will join the party as well.The grinder wasn’t too loud, functioned flawlessly, and was a snap to operate and clean. It comes with 3 grinding dies, 1 course grind, 1 fine grind, and 1 to stuff links. It also includes 3 stuffing tubes to make links from breakfast link size up to a brat size. I’m sure more sizes are available as well.This is a great set-up for an occasional user, while having the power and speed to process a deer, a pig, or a beef. Yeah, it’ll take a while as it says it can grind 3# a minute, but that’s almost 200 pounds an hour! By the way, that is a realistic figure, not a load of overinflated advertising hype.For the price, this baby gets the job done! I anticipate many years of delicious adventures. Would I make this purchase again? In a heartbeat!

Title: Good for small uses.
Review: Works well, gets stopped up quickly but that is to be expected. Ground up deee really well! If you are doing A LOT, you’ll want something bigger.

Title: Works well
Review: I actually bought this for my dog. Feeding raw is new to me and this product works great. I use it regularly for grinding chicken thighs for him and it does really well with those bones. It however does not do well with drumsticks so I only buy thighs for him now. I’ve also used it to grind sirloin roasts to make great burger meat.My only issue has been with taking off the end cap piece after use. It won’t unscrew unless I tap it with a hammer. Once I tap it, I can twist it off to break it all down to clean.

Title: The Mighty Bite #8 is Mighty Good !
Review: I just got into sausage making a few months ago; I started using a Kitchen Aid grinding attachment, it works o.k. but it was kinda slow, the meat needs to be in fairly small pieces but what I was worried most about was the strain on the mixer’s motor. After doing a lot of research, I focused on the LEM models; given my requirements it was down to the Big Bite #8 and the Mighty Bite #8 Aluminum Grinder . Both models are reported to be 500 watts, are the number 8 size ( this refers to the size of the grinder plate ); LEM has good reputation and for making good quality grinders with a good warranty and spare/replacement parts (good luck with off-brands getting parts !) . To me the major difference was the cost difference of about $160. After deliberating I went with the Mighty Bite and I have no regrets. The first time I used the Mighty Bite I ground six pounds of pork shoulder in three minutes with the 10mm plate and it took about five minutes to grind it again with the 4.5 mm plate – frankly it ground the meat as fast as I could feed the tube. The machine is about as noisy as a food processor which is okay with me because I’m a little bit deaf. You shouldn’t put the grinding components in the dishwasher but with a bottle brush and hot, soapy water everything quickly cleans right up. So, if you are a casual user and on the fence as to which model to buy I recommend the Mighty Bite; you can use the money that you save to buy more sausage makings.

Review: We bought this grinder to make our own cat food. This is a relatively light job, converting cheap beef into mince that can be mixed with various additives. We used a food processor for a long time, but felt like we should have a more appropriate device. And, while there are many cheaper grinders, we opted to go a bit up-scale. The Mighty Bite is living up to expectations.The unit is larger than expected, heavier and more solid all around. The working parts are metal and feel very robust. Meat disappears into the inlet very rapidly – faster than we can feed it, most of the time. There’s a bit of a trick with using the pusher. You need a varying pressure, very light most of the times, a bit more encouraging as larger lumps are ingested. Operation is far from silent, but no worse than with our food processor, and shorter in duration. (We’ve cut the processing time roughly in half.)Surprisingly, the coarse plate gives us a very soft grind, so we’ve had no need to use the finer plate. Clean-up is a pleasant surprise. There are no difficult-to-get-at crannies – everything rinses clean rapidly in a bit of soapy water.Overall, we’re happy we spent a bit more to get the Mighty Bite. The unit seems well-built, and is enough fun to use that we’re considering other applcations, such as making our own ground beef or sausages. (Of course, we can’t speak to durability, as yet. If this message is still up here two years from now, with no venomous postscript, you can take that as an even stronger endorsement.)

Review: We purchased the Mighty Bite Grinder to make sausage after using my Kitchenaid mixer attachment because it was underpowered. This machine is excellent. Ground 25 lbs of meat in under 10 mins. Made making sausage a breeze. Highly recommend.
