If I were in your shoes, I would buy 1) the KitchenAid attachment and 2) a dedicated stuffer. The kitchenAid does a good job of grinding, but stuffing ain't so fun.

Definitely get a stuffer. Most grinders come with a stuffing attachment but that’s a PITA. It will blow the damn casing up like a balloon. Most of the piston type stuffers have a relief valve in them that keeps the air out of the casing. It’s a much easier way to do it.

Good affordable grinder for sausage by CarRamrod
where do yall get yalls sausage casings? just ask the butcher at your grocery?


I've used the grocery (Doricnac's in Metairie) before. This year I used the salt cured hog casings from Academy and the were just as good. Very convenient because I never know which week I'll kill a deer.

My grinder in a hand crank villa ware that cost about $30, with a stuffing funnel attached. Plenty for grinding half a deer in a day.

I've done 100 pounds of sausage in the last 3 days. My recommendation is that you just pick up the kitchen aid attachment for grinding. Buy a dedicated stuffer, I used the kitchen aid one and I'll never do it again. Once thing that will help if make sure the meat is frozen and chunked if you are dumb enough to do what I did.

Skimp a little on the grinder and get a stuffer if you going to make sausage.
