Will the STX Turboforce 3000 grind turkey wings and necks or is it just limited to chicken bones?

Chicken/Bones and Rabbit/Bones, but "NO" Turkey Bones as they are too hard and too big. Regards, Jim The Mercantile Station

I haven't tried to grind chicken, but it works very well for grinding nuts. I love this blender.

You should not grind any beef bones in this grinder - or any other one because the bones are too hard.Chicken bones grind up great in this grinder. We have used it over and over, and it has not failed us yet.

The Honest Kitchen website says that you can feed with commercial raw like Primal, ground chicken/turkey necks and backs, or cubed/ground meat from the grocer and cooked or raw. I personally wouldn't add anything with bone to it because it already has a calcium: phosphorous ratio of 2.5:1. I would add only boneless meats and organs so that you even out the calcium: phosphorous ratio more. I have always fed it with ground muscle meat and liver lightly cooked.

I love my "grinder" & use it for a lot of things but never for bones, it was not made for that job. I have made mincemeat and cranberry sauce that is healthier then store-bought. each piece is uniform and same size last year, I was given a turkey. I stripped the meat off the bones and ground it. it was good but not a job that I will do again.

It comes with a 7mm, which is the largest, and a 4.5mm for sausage grind. I run whole turkeys through mine, bones and all. If you plan on doing bones, you will need to get a spare 7mm. I put 13 turkeys down it on the same grinder plate, and it's still sharp. But I also bought a spare, because I was told meats like venison (no bones) wear out a plate pretty fast..................Terry...

I'd say many or most grinders can grind chicken & rabbit bones with meat. I do so for making cat food. This one should do. I've talked to people that say they grind chicken bones very well even tho the instructions advise against it.Turkey bones is harder to do, and forget beef bones unless you have a big expensive unit.

yes but the finer ones. I just assume it cannot grind the large bones so don't even try. we make chum for fishing.

I prefer the Galahad, or Kutzall Extreme Wheels for leveling. I find the Turbo Plane accels at cutting concave and blending curves. For me personally (owning all three) i feel the Cutting action of the Galahad is a little easier to control in leveling. Try not to buy the Lie that Says, "little or no sanding is required following the Turbo Plane" they all require finish work with sanding equipment if you desire a really nice clean surface. Hope this Helps. Have Fun with your project!!

Yes. It grinds the bones in chicken legs and quarters with no problems at all.

Yes you can.. I fried a turkey with it..The difficult part was measuring the oil.Wings would be no problem.

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.

Look for the Tasin TS-108 Meat Grinder from One Stop Jerky Shop on the internet, their grinder does a great job on bones, covered under 1 yr warranty and they have great customer service.

STX 3000 Mega works perfect, just make sure your meat and chicken bones are half frozen.

It's great with wings and boneless breast pieces. That is all I've done on it so far. it may do if carefully chicken legs or small thighs. This type of grill is for small cuts that can be cooked quickly with high heat. Larger cuts of meat will burn on the outside before the inside is done. This is not the grill for whole, half or quarter chicken. Use a kettle or barrel grill for that.

I cut chicken wings using this scissors, but through the joints cartilage. I have not tried this with duck necks.

It is strong and a good size for chopping chicken bones. Just keep the blade sharp and it will do the job.
