Fifty pounds of venison and pork trim, water, and cure go into the 7-gallon drum in one load, and the crank turns them into an evenly seasoned batch without a second pass. - [2-in-1 Meat Tenderizer and Jerky Slicer](https://valleysportsman.org/) — ASIN B0GK64KTQ1.

Turn one dial from 0 to 15mm and the same machine cuts paper-thin ham for a sandwich or bacon-thick planks for the smoker rack. - [Commercial Electric Meat Grinder, #12 Head, 3/4 HP](https://valleysportsman.org/) — ASIN B0GYX286F2. Feed a quartered shoulder into the #12 head and the 0.75 HP motor clears it in minutes, at about 7 lbs a minute. ## What buyers ask about Valley Sportsman Meat Processing Equipment - valley sportsman meat slicer - valley sportsman meat grinder - valley sportsman #12 meat grinder - valley sportsman 7.5 food slicer - valley sportsman meat bandsaw - valley sportsman dehydrator manual - valley sportsman electric meat grinder - valley sportsman electric meat slicer - valley sportsman electric sausage stuffer - valley sportsman electric pressure cooker ## FAQ - What does Valley Sportsman make? — Four meat-processing machines for hunters and home butchers: a 50-lb manual mixer, a 2-in-1 tenderizer and jerky slicer, an electric deli slicer, and a #12 commercial grinder. - Is a home meat grinder worth it compared to paying a processor? — A per-animal processing fee runs into several hundred dollars and repeats every season you hunt. - Which machine should I buy first? — The grinder changes your timeline the most, so it comes first for anyone processing whole animals. - Can a meat grinder help you use more of the animal? — Neck meat, rib trim, and shank scraps that get discarded on a cutting board turn into usable burger, sausage, or pet food once they run through a grinder. - What's the difference between a meat mixer and a meat grinder? — A grinder cuts meat into ground texture through a plate; a mixer blends already-ground meat with water, cure, and seasoning so the flavor spreads evenly. - Is this equipment made for home use or commercial kitchens? — Sizing sits between the two. - How much meat can the grinder process in an hour? — The rated figure is 540 lbs per hour, which works out to roughly 7 lbs a minute through the #12 head. - What grinder head size is this, and what does it mean? — This is a #12 head. ## Pages - [Home](https://valleysportsman.org/): brand overview and every product. - [About](https://valleysportsman.org/about.html)
