Anyone got a home meat mincer/grinder? If so are they any good? I am considering getting an electric one as I use alot of minced meat and I am sick of the crappy stuff the supermarkets pass off as 'premium quality'.

Why not just go to a decent butcher?? Fact is, meat from supermarkets is wank. I dont care what you think your meat tastes like from your local asda, or in Lamps case, Waitrose, its crap compared to a good butcher. You might have to pay a bit extra, but you cant put a price on quality :D

I do pay good money and often use proper butchers, thing is even alot of good butchers have been known to pad out beef mince with lambs liver to give it a blood red appearance. Slainyou was in the meat trade for 15 years and told me it is common practice in all but the highest quality butchers.

Thing is, I would prefer to buy my own meat and poultry and mince it myself, that way I know exactly what I am getting and can lower the fat content to my own personal taste.

I used to work in a butchers and I never once saw the butcher putting liver into the mincer. Just pure beef.

If they are putting other shit in then report those bitches, someone will give them some hammer time under the food safety act.

Worked in a butchers myself for about a year and we were told to mix some low quality ince with the good stuff and mince it 2 or 3 more times to make more so not all butchers are great quality imo...

All footballers are mincers

Except Cantona when he karate-kicked some fan (who deserved it anyway for being a football fan)
