Looking to get one for this hunting season and start to grind my venison for various things. What is the best on the market say around $100? Could go more but just try to stay in this price area.

I would go with #1 and if you have any inclinations to make sausage use the extra money to get a sausage stuffer.

Do you have a Kitchen Aide? If so the grinder attachment works well and will save you from buying another machine. It's fine for occasional grinding.

That said, if you are going to be grinding a lot, I'd look at Cabela's.

A grinder with enough hp will stuff sausage also. If you are grinding up a little meat for a couple of burgers, one of those cheap ones will work. When you start grinding lost of meat for sausage, etc, buy for the job at hand...

What he said. The cheap jobs work fine for most tasks. I'd only spend big bucks if I was really putting out a ton of product.

So what would the board suggest if i wanted to buy an all around great grinder for the home kitchen? Keep in mind I'm not grinding for a restaurant or anything.

seriously, the easiest would be to go to cabelas/bass pro website, look at a few with about 1 hp, then take that to Amazon and compare, then pull trigger wherever, after about 30 minutes of "research".

eta: both of those you linked looked to be a lil mickey mousey to me.

I have the cabelas brand. Think it was about $80 on sale. If you think you are going to make sausage go ahead and get a stuffer. So much better than using the grinder.

I have a Uniworld 3/4 hp from Ducotes for about $130.00. It works fine but the key is to cube the meat and partially freeze it and keep it cold while grinding.

I have an 8 or 10 pound stuffer from Ducotes for $190.00 and I definitely recommend this. It is hand crank stainless steel and as above is infinitely better than using your grinder as a stuffer. I also have the Kitchen Aid and it's about good for a few hamburgers not much else.

And a tip, when you finish grinding add a couple slices of bread through your grinder and it will force the rest of the meat out and make it easier to clean.
