Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of VillaWare V5267 Elite ProGrinder Electric Meat GrinderCustomer Review: Very Pleased with the Villaware V5267 Elite ProGrinder Summary: 5 Stars
I received the ProGrinder sooner than expected. So far, I have made sausage patties from ground Pork Shoulder and Chili and Spaghetti from ground Chuck. I love the fresh taste. It is also nice to know the quality of the meat that you are cooking with. The texture of the meat, while mixing in ingredients as well as while cooking, is markedly better than the pasty, mushy feel of pre-packaged ground meats.
The grinder has only been in use three times, but has performed wonderfully. It goes through six pounds of chuck in a matter of minutes. It is easy to set up, easy to use, and easy to clean. Storage does take a bit more time as you need to coat the metal parts with cooking oil to keep them from rusting. But I do not find it overly bothersome. Just five minutes to protect the parts, and it's not like you will be grinding meat every day.
I follow the recommendations I have seen and cut the meat into long strips that will easily fit into the feed tube. Then put them in the freezer to harden a bit, but not freeze. After cutting the meat into strips, I put it on one of those metal thawing trays before putting in the freezer. The temperature conductivity of the tray works in reverse and it speeds up the process. While the meat is in the freezer, so are the metal parts I will be using, so everything stays cold.
When I feed in the strips, they are just pulled in by the machine. I've read that it is loud and was a bit worried, but it is much quieter than a blender. Nothing to make the neighbors upset, as long as it is not 2am.
It's too early to say anything about durability, but it seems sturdy and I am so far delighted with it.
