[QUOTE="Mike Belt, post: 4390393, member: 69"] I have the Cabelas 1 1/2hp grinder. It's expensive and the truth be known the only reason I have it is because a friend had bought it and never used it and sold it to me for about 1/3 what he paid for it. It does a great job and will grind as fast as you can drop meat in it. That speed is what you gain with the bigger hp. Straight out grinding with it works great but when you get down to stuffing tubes the barrel is so large that it won't push meat into the stuffing tubes once you run out of meat feeding into the grinder itself and you end up with about 3/4 pound of meat in the barrel you have to manually stuff. If your intentions are to stuff casings you'd be much better off with a separate stuffer that feeds from the bottom. Most of those are hand crank but you can get them motorized if you want to invest an extra $3-$400 for them. You can virtually stuff all your ground meat with these. You can get foot pedals for feeding on almost any electric model and they sure beat having to handle the meat while feeding and at the same time turning the grinder on and off. [/QUOTE]
