The Torrey meat grinder and meat saw that I purchased are really outstanding products. I am used to the Cabela's (TM) models and with those grinders, I would always have to stop the machine every few minutes or so and clean out the auger area. I put an 8" wide, 1-1/2" thick and 20" long piece of roast down the M32 auger throat and that grinder chewed it up and spit it out like nobody's business. I'm a hard person to please but I owe you honest praise on these products. Thanks again for representing such a fine quality equipment! – Bob Curtis, Lubbock TX

Your company provides the sort of service I thought did not exist anymore. I will purchase more things from you in the future because of your great service and your honesty... Thanks again for all your assistance! – Greg Ortega, Phoenix AZ

Back To Basics Grinder
Back To Basics Meat Grinder

Grinding Speed: We timed this grinder at 10 lbs. of beef in 10 minutes. The manufacturer rates it at 800 watts; we don't know how they arrived at that number -- we'd say it performs like a good 200 watt grinder. Can be run continuously. Motor has built-in circuit breaker.

Fast, Easy Cleanup: Disassembles completely in seconds for easy cleanup.

Meat Processing Equipment from Pleasant Hill Grain

I ordered a meat grinder from you that I felt would be more than adequate for the job, so it would have a high threshold of durability. I've worked as a meat cutter and chose a model based on that experience. But I was still surprised by the quality construction of the grinder. The friendly saleswoman who helped me was so informed and intelligent that she made my decision making process easy. You have good people, and sell great products. – Tiger Paulk, Stockton CA
