I have a Galley - so for the time being a
Food Processor must suffice.
I had a chance in 2011 for a free one but
The Bubble had burst and my opulent
Lifestyle was finished along with my finances. I'm still here though, lots aren't.
So's my Processor.

Don't get mad at me.

But when did American men become so weak and effete that they need a machine to pull apart a pork butt?

I pull the bone out and use two oversized serving forks and it is fast and easy. It has never occurred to me that a machine would make the task faster or easier.

Kitchenaid punishes any other brand of mixer we've ever had; we've run the rest straight into the dirt. We bought our Kitchenaid for the mixer, but the pasta and sausage attachments are the unexpected stars. If you buy 'fresh' pasta every week the beast will pay itself off in a few years, and then you're away.

Will have to give the pulled pork idea a spin, for a giggle. (When I smoke, I smoke in bulk, so hand picking the meat is a real project.)

Daughter's holding out for a commercial model, but her hobby is semi-pro baking so that makes sense. Down Under that's a lazy thousand US bucks most of the time, so no one's rushing in.

If you use this kind of thing, Kitchenaid seems to be the one. If you don't, well, at current prices you'd really have to stop and wonder.

I’m a little late to the discussion but every year at Christmastime, ours gets a workout for about 4 days. My wife mixes all her cookie doughs with it. She’s made about 7 or 8 different types of cookies over the last couple of days. Today she made pasta dough and I used the pasta attachment to roll it into sheets for the lasagna that we prepared for Christmas (it’s sitting uncooked in the freezer till Christmas Day). it’s a great machine that looks like it’ll last forever.

That dude scared me in the first five seconds, brandishing his power jigsaw that close to his oscilloscope.

The circ saw is all part of the presentation; this guy refuses to be anything even remotely similar to all those lame 'unboxing' vids wherein some snowflake oohs and aahs at the packaging like it's just as important as the product itself. Sometimes he uses a hammer. Sometimes it's a chainsaw.

Warning: contains adultish languaging. Mantener fuera del alcance de los niños.

Ok for those asking “I thought this was TDPRI…” etc etc…google “custom painted KitchenAid mixer.” And there is your new rabbit hole. You’re welcome. I’ll get you started.
