Freshly ground meat should be

• Duringextendedgrinding,fatsfrom
meats can build up inside the grinder
tube, slowing down grinding and
straining the motor. If this happens,
you should stop the Cuisinart™ Meat
Grinder, wash parts in hot water, and
reassemble. When possible, alternate
bread with meat. This helps keep the
feed screw clean.

NOTE: Grinding times may vary with
different types of meat products. To
ensure optimum grinding performance,
meat must be placed in the freezer for no
longer than 30 minutes (must be able to
pierce meat easily with the tip of a knife).
TO MAKE SAUSAGES
The sausage attachments allow you to blend meats and spices for homemade sausages.
