AAOBOSI 3000W Electric Meat Grinder Review
Have you ever considered buying a meat grinder but been unsure if it is worth your money? Joints of meat are often cheaper than minced meat but not by very much so would you get enough use from a meat grinder? Which meats can you use the grinder for? Does a meat grinder have any other uses? Here I review the AAOBOSI meat grinder for you and share how you can use a meat grinder to make lower-fat meals. Please note I was sent the meat grinder free of charge for the purposes of this review but all opinions are my own.
When it comes to tackling meat preparation at home, the AAOBOSI 3000W Electric Meat Grinder claims to be a perfect addition to your kitchen. With its robust motor, versatile functionalities, and professional attachments, it’s marketed as the ultimate tool for meat lovers, home cooks, and families. Here’s my detailed review to help you decide if this is the best meat grinder for your needs.
Specs of the AAOBOSI 3000W Meat Grinder
The AAOBOSI Meat Grinder is a multi-functional appliance that aims to simplify meal prep while offering high performance. Whether you’re grinding beef for burgers, prepping sausage mix, or experimenting with homemade kibbeh, this machine can do a lot.
Powerful Performance
This grinder has a 3000W motor (500W rated power), allowing it to grind up to 3 pounds of meat per minute. Even tough cuts like lamb or pork shoulder can be minced, making it perfect for families or those who like to batch cook.
Versatile Attachments
Comes with 2 stainless steel blades, 4 grinding plates, 3 sausage kits, and a kibbe attachment. Whether you’re craving smooth pâtés or chunky sausages, there’s an accessory for every texture. As you can see below the blades are strong and well-made, not flimsy.
Easy Cleaning & Maintenance
All parts detach for simple cleaning, with stainless steel blades and grinding plates being dishwasher-safe. However, aluminium components must be hand-washed to prevent oxidation.
Safety Features & Durable Build
This meat grinder includes overheat protection and a circuit breaker to avoid motor damage. The stainless steel housing is designed to be easily cleaned and durable for regular use.
Compact Storage
The accessories can easily be stored in the grinder itself, keeping your kitchen neat and tidy and avoiding the inevitable hunt for the accessories each time you want to use it.
Benefits of Investing in a Home Meat Grinder
So, why should you consider a meat grinder, what are the benefits?
Know What’s in Your Food
For health-conscious eaters, making your own mince or sausage means you control the quality of the meat, the seasoning, and the fat content. There is no risk of offal being added to your meat and you can be sure to use the best quality cuts.
Perfect for low fat diets
If you follow a diet such as Slimming World, Weight Watchers or similar then the advice is always to eat the lowest fat mince possible, usually 5%. When it comes to lamb it is hard to buy anything less than 20% fat mince so I made my own. While there is no guarantee of the fat content the different was visible!
Avoid Additives
Shop-bought minced meat often contains fillers, additives, or who-knows-what. Using a home meat grinder ensures absolute freshness. You know there are no preservatives or water added.
Cost-Effective
While the upfront cost of the grinder is an investment, buying meat in bulk and prepping it at home can significantly reduce your long-term costs.
What I thought of the meat grinder
Performance
I found the grinder easy to set up and use with no complicated settings. The meat grinder easily coped with the lamb steaks I tried it with and within about 10 minutes of unpacking the grinder we had it set up and minced.
Versatility
I have not yet used the grinder to make sausages but that is next on my list. It is hard to find low-fat sausages that are good quality and not too expensive so I am keen to make my own. I have also discovered other things I could use the meat grinder for. I did not know you can use this tool to grate cheese, make peanut butter and chop vegetables. I can imagine using it to chop lots of vegetables into small pieces for example to make a chunky soup.
Ease of Cleaning
While the main components are easy to dismantle and dishwasher-safe, the aluminium parts (like the hopper) require handwashing. It’s a minor inconvenience, but to be honest not a big deal.
Noise Level
The AAOBOSI Meat Grinder is quite loud. While the noise is expected given its powerful motor, it’s worth considering if you are likely to be using it in the evening with children sleeping upstairs etc.
Value for Money
At a price point of £145.99 on Amazon (plus a £20 voucher discount at the time of writing), the AAOBOSI offers great value for its quality and range of features.
