Product Features
Create ground beef, sausage, wild game, and other high-demand, delicious foods with the Avantco MG22R #22 meat grinder! This reliable grinder has a stainless steel body built to withstand medium-duty use in your commercial kitchen or butcher shop environment. Thanks to its gear-driven body, it can process up to 540 lb. of meat per hour and is designed for daily use, operating for 40 minutes at a time with 20-minute breaks. The powerful 1 1/2 hp motor works well for grinding popular meat, while the large and well-supported feed tray, direct drive gears, and stainless steel knives and plates produce perfectly ground meat every time. This unit also includes a reverse button to prevent clogging and ensure smooth operation. Both a 1/4" and a 5/16" grinder plate are included, so you can produce different sizes of ground product.
Designed for stability, this unit features non-skid feet to ensure that it won't move during use. Plus, the included plastic pusher allows the user to push meat through while keeping their hands far from the moving parts. This ultimately contributes to the safety of you and your staff while grinding, as it reduces the risk of injury. For convenience, this model also comes with a replacement knife, a gasket, a sausage stuffer tube, and a stainless steel meat tray. With so many accessories, you can always be sure you have the right tools on hand to process various types of meat. For optimal sausage stuffing, this item is compatible with Avantco MG12PSTUF sausage stuffing plates (sold separately) to create the perfect sausage. The bench-style design even easily fits a meat lug under the grinding head. A stainless steel handle is attached on top for easy transportation, and the unit can be disassembled for a thorough cleaning after use, making this a robust unit sure to be an asset for any foodservice establishment!

Workhorse Grinder with Outstanding Support We’ve been running the Avantco MG22R #22 Meat Grinder with Reverse (110V, 1½ HP) in our pizzeria since September, and it has proven to be an absolute workhorse. We did have an initial issue with the grinding head housing right out of the box, but I can’t say enough good things about Webstaurant’s customer service. Their team was responsive, attentive, and handled the replacement immediately with zero hassle. That kind of support matters when you’re running a business and downtime isn’t an option. Since the replacement, the grinder has been flawless. We use it weekly for our house-made sausages, grinding anywhere from 75–100 pounds per week, and it hasn’t skipped a beat. Power is consistent, the reverse function is genuinely useful, and the unit handles volume without overheating or bogging down. For the price point, this grinder punches well above its weight. If you’re a pizzeria, butcher shop, or restaurant looking for a reliable #22 grinder for regular production, this is a solid investment — and it’s backed by customer service that actually stands behind what they sell. Highly recommended.

This meat grinder was more than I needed, but from the reports of others they were disappointed they didn't get a bigger one, like this one is. I'm VERY glad we picked this one! It is BIG, & it is HEAVY, but it sure grinds the meat fast! All the items wash well in the dishwasher, although I wash plastic items by hand. The grinders don't seem to be getting dull. It cleans up very well. It fits under my kitchen cabinet. We use it once a week or more often as needed. I would recommend this to a friend.

GO FOR THIS! We have the 1hp model and used it for years without any problems. It was a workhorse so we decided to upgrade to a slightly more powerful one and what a difference it has made. This is the clear winner between the 2. It costs more than the 1hp model but works twice as fast and with twice the ease. I would highly recommend this work horse of a grinder.

At first I wasn't so sure about this meat grinder but now I regretted not buying it earlier.I have a small meat store and this machine is perfect , it's working powerful and it is working so quietly.If I have to get another meat grinder, I would gladly buy this machine again.

Built to last. Grinds big chunks of meat with no problem. Easy to disassemble to clean. No tools required to assemble or disassemble. Would definitely recommend for a table top unit.

I was initially worried reading the product description that it wouldn't be tough enough to handle my kitchens volume. This is simply not the case... we are a sausage company and we grind meat every other day... this little guy can do 20-25lbs. in a few minutes. Very easy to clean, and not too loud. I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for good quality and good price.

We used to bring our meats with the attachment for the mixer but we never liked having raw meat near the mixer that we mainly use for dough. This little guy is powerful and heavy duty!

Good grinder for the money. Send about a hundred lbs a week through it. Have been using it for about 6 months now and it's still working fine.
