What is everyone using to make their "chopped meat"? I have done it with the burnt fingertips and alot of elbow grease for ever but am seeking some advice on how to do larger amounts without all the extra labor.
When you search for meat chopper online and on fleabay, most of the results come up with just your typical meat grinder. (Like I use to make hamburger and stuff sausages). I have ate butts and brisket that have been ran through this type of machine and frankly, I don't like anything about what it does to it. Maybe I don't have a large enough plate, but I don't like it.
A few nights ago I was flipping around on the tube and caught the tail end of Diners, Drivins and Dives (with Guy) and this gal had a really cool machine she was using. It had like a round pan that was curved on the bottom and rotated at a medium speed running the meat and other things through some sort of shredder or chopper that was part of the machine. She cut a whole cooked brisket into about 3 or 4 chunks, threw it in, and in about 45 seconds had some perfect chopped beef brisket! I am sure it would take some time to clean afterwards but would be worth it on the bigger projects.
I have looked everywhere for something like this online with no luck. Anyone know what this machine is called? I am sure it is expensive but if I have to many more afternoons spent pulling 110# of butts I am going to have to get skin implants on the ends of my fingers! I used to cooks the butts longer and they would just literally fall apart but I don't like the meat that mushy myself. I prefer some testure to it which pulls much harder.
If anyone saw that show and knows what that thing was called please let me know. Also, what is everyone else using to pull/chop their meat?
Thanks in advance.
