Still haven't made the plunge yet ...

Mrs. Dakotasdad is upstairs with the meat cleaver chopping up a chicken - Julia is cheering her on. chop chop woof woof woof chop chop woof woof!

This would be just perfect!

I looks like you could walk a cow/goat/lamb right into it.....

I haven't used one myself, been thinking about it, but a friend of mine uses a meat grinder from Northern Tool. She mainly grinds chicken and said it has no problem with the bone. It does void the warrenty, though. I think it only cost around $150.
