Im a big fan of the show "Good Eats" with Alton Brown. It's a great mix of Science, History and of course cooking! Anyways, I watched an old episode the other day called " A grind is a terrible thing to waste."
Which reminded me that I have always wanted to grind my own meat for hamburgers and meatloaf. The episode does a good job of showing those less informed about what meat to use (like myself) but does not really get into what grinder to purchase.
Obviously I want something manual since I am normally cooking for myself so a lot of meat will not be necessary. The usual scan of Amazon and Google shopping brings up an aray of made in china grinder from cast iron to stainless with all diff kinds of cutters and shapes.. its a bit much haha.
I put together a list of some things I think I would "like" in a grinder
Anyone out there grind there own meat?

- Be able to dissasemble for better cleaning
- Made in USA
- Clamp on would be better, Cant drill in counter since I rent
- New or Used doesnt matter, although vintage is cool
