Sausage balls and a KitchenAid stand mixer
itsjoannotjoann
you're like me, was not enthused by the process. Mix, mix, mix,
blend, squish, squash, squish and mix again and again and again.
Dang, what a chore!
A few weeks ago I was perusing a cooking group and someone posted to
put all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and using their mixer to do
all the work. The comment was this will take quite a while and you'll
think the mixture will never come together. This past week end I put
all the ingredients in the KitchenAid mixing bowl and used the K
beater and in less than 3 minutes ALL was beautifully combined! All
that was left to do was to roll this mixture into bite portions and
bake.
The process was SO fast I had not even turned on the oven to pre-heat
as I was assuming this would take much longer and I had plenty of time
to think of oven temperatures later. Needless the say the KitchenAid
artisan mixer handled this chore effortlessly. Next time I may try
the dough hook just to see what sort of results I achieve.

You're really nudging that part of me that *really* wants a KA stand
mixer. The part I keep shoving out of my mind.

Give in, give up, get one. I love mine and wouldn't trade it for any
other small appliance or gadget in the kitchen. They now come in such

I know! They sure know what they're doing making it in those colors,
they're more irrisistible than ever. How do they stack up as a meat
grinder, do you know? That could be another shove in the right direction.

My "problem" (all our problems should be this small) is where to
keep it and that I don't bake. So I have to justify it to myself and
then find a spot for it. One day I'm just going to say the hell with
it and buy one. In a pretty color.

Here's another nudge. But I'd forget the colors and try to find a
old KA, from when they were still made by Hobart. I occasionally
see them at yard sales. You could even luck out on freecycle.

But when the KA is not in use it rests on top of my refrigerator,
covered. Believe me, this will build some nice upper arm muscles!! I
tell my family and co-workers if they don't see or hear from me for a
few days to come to the house to make sure the KA hasn't fell on me
and killed me! hahahaaaa
Btw, KitchenAid has rebates on their products quite often. And if you
have a Bed, Bath, & Beyond near you and have a 20% off coupon you can
save a nice chunk of change buying it there.

You don't think you'll bake more if you buy one? If my family ate
things like cake, I might be more inclined to get one too. I've
adjusted how to make bread over the years, so I don't need a mixer
with a dough paddle anymore.

Even with a coupon, they're expensive! Looks like they are $400 on
sale.

A beautiful Kitchen Ail mixer falls squarely in my 'want' column,
I sure don't need one.

That would be cool. You're the kind of person that finds incredible
stuff at yard sales. I find puzzles with pieces missing and chipped

(laughing!) Oh, just the picture in my mind, too funny. Not if
it really happened, of course. Oh, but she looks so peaceful
lying there, and the mixer is such a lovely color!

I make bread dough in my FP, cookies by hand or hand mixer, not many
cakes and the one I do make only requires a wooden spoon, frosting by
hand or hand mixer, I buy tortillas (because I'm the worst tortilla
maker on the face of this planet), cheesecake - hand mixer. I've
adjusted. If I got a stand mixer, it would be for the attachments...
and who knows how much I'd use them once the newness wore off?

I bought my KitchenAid K5 back in 1972 and never looked back. I'll never
have to buy another one, and as a tool, I consider it irreplacable. I also
have an ancient (mid-1950s) Dormeyer "Dormey" hand mixer that I use for
minor chores like whipping cream, mixing light batter, beating eggs, etc.
It still works like the day my parents bought it.

stand and lift bowl models. They come with a dough hook, wire wisk,
and the regular mixing paddle known as the K beater. It's very

BB&B. The coupon will knock $40 off the top and the rebate is
normally around $20. The professional series which has the bowl lift
are the much pricier ones.

No kidding. They really did make workhorses back then. I guess
there isn't a lot of money in making things that never wear out.

That's not too bad if you get all those discounts then. I bought one
to give as a gift, but don't remember the little ones coming in any
color except white for sale purposes.

My mother had a Dormeyer stand mixer. When she died I looked for it but
it was gone. Nice mixer, much nicer than I appreciated at the time.

Dormeyer made high quality mixers, both stand models and portables. My

Well dangit, I wish you would have come to my house and made these

I've never had them with anything other than the flour/Bisquik mix,
shredded cheddar cheese, and the hot sausage. If you're using a good
quality breakfast sausage they don't need additions of onions,
jalapenos or anything else to mess/dress them up.
You might like a bit of jelly or other such breakfast condiment with
them, though.

Nancy, the only complaints I have about our 20+ year old KA stand
mixer are (A) it's an older model wherein removing the bowl after a
hard mix is a little difficult, (B) you can't scrape down the sides
while mixing, or at least it's slightly inconvenient. Eventually I'll
get one of those scraper-blade-paddles and (B) will no longer be an
issue.

Same here. I'd never made them before and I was really having
my doubts it was going to come together. Too late I remembered
being told to warm up the cheese and the sausage before trying
to mix them together. I think they finally came together because
the ingredients got warmer and warmer from being worked.

Want me to gently twist your wrist a little ??? The shredder/slicer
attachment is fantastic! And the ice cream maker is another wonderful
attachment, also. I have yet to try the meat-grinder attachment, and
I'll have to give that a go soon -- maybe just as spring/summer gets
here, when it's a lot less cold and I can grill burgers!

Uhmm..... I haven't seen the "Artisan" (5 quart) style of KA mixer(s)
for less than $269 (with rebate included) for quite a long time. I
have, however, seen less robust 4.5-quart models (Ultra? or called
something like that?) listed at $199. But, a KA is a KA, eh? Even the
$199 model would be very nice to have in the kitchen!

I sure wouldn't buy one just to make cheese balls once or twice a year. And
I *know* I wouldn't use one more often than that. I'm simply not interested
in baking breads or mixing other dough-like substances these days. But hey,
if you want a KA mixer, knock yourself out :)

40 cubic ft. It's cost me a small fortune to refurb, but far less than

Sorry, I had butter fingers when I posted that. Of course, you are
correct and the price is $299 before any discounts and rebates.

My sister's favorite candy is divinity and I blew up two mixers making
it. One mixer was hand held, but the other was a Sunbeam. The
KitchenAid is doing fine, it hasn't failed me, yet.

carries refurbished ones.
I got an Artisan for less that $200 that way - it works just fine.

Horse shit!
I love my KA as much as I loved my grandmother's and mother's KA (same
machine, would've been my KA too but my greedy s-i-l glommed onto it,
that bitch, so I bought my own). I use it for everything, so reading
here that it was used to make sausage balls was no surprise. A 5-quart
Artisan will mix just about anything you want to make, but you could go
to a smaller capacity (4 or 4.5 quart) with lower "wattage" without
losing any efficiency and have a good machine of a size that's right for
your family's needs.
Especially now that arthritis is taking out my hands and shoulders, whoo
damn I love that machine! My KA lives on the counter top and looks good
there. It's gleaming Onyx Black. It's gorgeous!

I mean, when I saw that, there was really no reason NOT to get it.
I now affectionately refer to it as my "Kitchen Tractor".

Waaaahhh, don't remind my of my grandmother's KA. Sniff. I was
wondering... do the newer SS bowls fit onto the old KAs that came
with glass bowls?

I had another mixer (a refurbished Sunbeam that was a wedding gift to my
parents) and was resisting the siren song of KA.
Then Simply Recipes (yay Elise) tipped me off to an Amazon deal for the
basic one, in white, for a lot closer to $100 than $200.
I got myself an early birthday present that year ;). I asked for an extra
bowl for Christmas.

Fantastic! And, the extra bowl definitely comes in handy, eh?!

I also have a 10 quart honest-to-pete Hobart that's around my
age...but that one is in the lab for my rocket-scientist work :-).
It was given to me by a friend. I discovered quickly that 12 quart
bowls are much easier to find than 10 quart. And either one is about
the price of a new 4.5 quart KA mixer...

late last week. She took her brand spanking new KA to her daughter's
house Wednesday night and they also did the sausage ball thang in the
mixer. She came in to work this morning telling me how eeeeeeasy and
quick this was and are sold on the idea of any future batches will
only be done in the mixer. I knew once she tried it she would be a
convert.
:-)
And I'm pleased as punch with that new 7 cup empire red food processor
I bought, also. The two slicing and chopping jobs went so fast I was
almost disappointed that I was done too soon. Clean up was quick with
some hot soapy dishwater, dish cloth, and a brush.

When I got my new KitchenAid FP several years ago, the first thing we wanted
to do was make a huge batch of hash browns for a brunch for friends. I
peeled and peeled and my husband was just waiting to see how the machine
handled the spuds. What a disappointment. He never made it to the kitchen
in time. The fp shredded those spuds so fast I never really saw it happen.
We often joke about it. I use my fp most during harvest season. It tears
through projects that used to take me hours and make a mess. The fp chops
herbs so that they don't bruise and mush. Shreds zucchini for freezing.
Makes great pesto. I can't think of all the things I use it for. I still
enjoy using my knives to do day-to-day cooking, but when I get into a large
repetitive job, I go for the fp. My hands just aren't what they used to be.

I made chicken and dressing yesterday to bring to work this week for
lunches and had a 1/2 bag of chopped onions sealed in a FoodSaver
bag. I had one lone onion left in the basket that needed to be used
before it went south on me. I peeled and quarted it and put it in the
f.p. bowl. Good golly! Three short pulses and it was chopped to
perfection!! It almost does it too fast, the job is finished before I
can get over my excitement. But if it was slow and chugging along I'd
be bitching about how long it takes. ;)
I don't know why I drug my feet for so long on buying a food
processor.

> I don't bake either but it's because I hate to mix. With my new KA I have made two different batches of cookie dough in 30 minutes so I could bake with my granddaughters later. Love it love it love it! I am always looking for more uses to justify the cost. Plus I got rid of two more appliances with my shredder and meat grinder attachments. Soon I'll have the ice cream maker and be set!
