Clogged end plate sounds like one of two problems both relating to the blade. Either blade is dull or blade it not tight enough against plate for clean cut.
I sue the stainless curvedblades on my grinders leaned not to bother with the steel straight style.

Now that I think about it, I think it may be due to the blade not being tight enough. Since I had to keep cleaning the plates, I would only hand tighten the ring that holds the plate and blade. I'll crank it down tight the next time I use it.

If the machine is bogging down on silver skin its one of 2 things. A dull cutting knife or not enough ass in the motor to cut thru it. I replace the knife about every 3~4 years. I did 40 bags yesterday all on the fine plate, and only had to stop and clean one time. And I only did that because I was taking a break and wanted all the meat out of it

This is great information for sure. Thanks for all the tips

Question though, what do you do with all the ground venison? I have always found it very gamey tasting and unless it is spiced to the nines it is not good. I recently received some jerky from a friend in Texas who makes his jerky with ground venison and it was, by far, he best jerky I ever ate.
