The LEM Model 5 Big Bite is a compact electric meat grinder with a 0.35 HP motor and a stainless steel #5 head. It grinds about 4 pounds of meat per minute, or up to 240 pounds an hour. It is sized for small batch projects or processing one or two animals a season.
The motor is permanently lubricated and sits in a stainless steel housing. A built-in circuit breaker is included. The offset, larger-diameter throat is designed to speed up feeding for grinding and stuffing. The meat pan measures 11-1/4" x 9-1/8" x 2-1/4" deep.
It comes with a stainless steel knife, auger, and large meat pan. It also includes three stuffing tubes, a meat stomper, and two grinding plates: 3/8" coarse and 3/16" fine. The grinder weighs 26.5 lbs.
