I got a deer this morning and need to get my meat grinder working again. Thanks for letting me pick your brains.
My Dad was using my meat grinder (#32 grinder w/pulley and electric motor) and kept having the front ring pop off. Apparently it would start out OK, but after a bit, enough of the tendons and stuff would get built up between the blade and the grinding plate that eventually it would pop off. I'm guessing perhaps the blade is dull? Has anyone had any success sharpening the blade on a meat grinder? How do you sharpen them? Do I just need to buy a new one?
