is this unit any good for tenderizing eye of the round veal?

Any form of veal should already be tender enough without using a tenderizer of any kind.

Not sure but I will bet that is equal or better quality as any product Cabelas sells. we have used our tenderizer for 3 years now and do two elk and two deer a year and this Weston has been perfect. I would prefer it over an electric because of ease in cleanup and just simplicity. I highly recomend this. I have been buying from Cabelas for 45 years and I am loosing my interest in them. They are overpriced and too commercial for me anymore.

The model number is #777. As far as a tenderizer, you would have to contact LEM for that.

This does not chop, but puts slices through the meat to tenderize. It flattens the meat though. The more times you run the meat through, the more lacy the cut looks. I like to run the piece through one direction, then turn and run it again. This makes the piece tender. Works great for game meat!

One of the things we use it for is dog food. We buy 40 pound boxes of frozen chicken necks, and sometimes mixed in with those are wing tips. None of it clogs the machine. What we do, and I'd suggest to do the same, is use the stuffing head- the one with three large slots, instead of any of the ones with rows of holes (made for ground meat). The auger pushes everything through, and the blade cuts it all up, even when frozen. Bones, fat, skin are no problem. I even use the three hole head when grinding elk or goat meat for us. It can be left that way for coarse ground meat, or used as a first pass. We've gotten to really like the coarse ground meat (because it has texture), so usually only use that head for everything. The machine has never given us a problem. That said, We haven't tried to feed it anything as large as a chicken leg bone or heavier. I'm sure there are large/tough enough bones to jam any machine. But we really like ours. (so do the dogs and cats!) good luck.

I personally would not waste the money on this unit. Spend it on your burgers and salad. I doubt you will be experiencing any pain before long . . . as in ever again.P.S. I do get the joke - it is funny. :)

It works great, but you need a good sharp knife as well. I got the commercial knife called Fat Daddio. Just keep it away from small children!

It's certainly a heavy duty, well-built machine, if you're concerned about that aspect. It should last a while. It's also very easy to use and does a great job of tenderizing/cubing.

I have used this tool to tenderize the meat before cutting into small pieces.Works great.

It is more of a steam kettle not a true pressure cooker. That means that it will not tenderize tough cuts of meat like a true pressure cooker will. However,it is a pretty good microwave steamer for vegetables. I have not had any luck cooking meat in it.

I haven't tried it, but I would think that if you cut the meat into bite size pieces it could work. It is very powerful!

I'm sorry. This was a gift but I've seen him 'honing' with it before slicing beef and turkey. Hope this helps.

as noted horns are for making sausage. Additional note, machine is fine for occasional use but make sure the meat is chilled partly frozen to grind better. Also make sure auger is tight. If auger is not tight it will slip and mess up the hex hole on the end. Plastic collar inside can crack causing auger not to turn when motor is running. Mine lasted two years and I replaced it with a STX 3000

No, This unit IS NOT good to cook foods with. I couldn't even get it to bring a roast up to temp in 2 days.

for med rare steaks I would get myself a thermometer pen/probe, the maverick is best suited for roasts

No I don't think you want to try grinding bones less you want a big mess on your hands....I ground small 1" peaces of just meat and it was a big job pushing the meat down the feed hole it kept pushing the meat back up and out all over the counter....You should look at better electric unit to grind bones.........LEM makes a good unit but expect to pay 200 at least........

The veal might block the sound to be hear clearly. Also, it will cause hissing sound when the veal is moving.
