What happens here

Put on a rubberized butcher's apron to protect clothing and skin from blood and fluids during the processing. Then, assemble the KitchenAid meat grinder attachment. Lubricate the metal parts of the attachment with a small amount of olive oil. Insert the grinding blade and plate, then secure the front cap. Attach the assembled meat grinder to the power hub of a KitchenAid Professional 5 Stand Mixer, ensuring it is properly seated and tightened with the locking tab. Briefly run the mixer to confirm the grinder is functioning correctly.

Goal: Prepare personal protective equipment and the meat grinding system.
