Yes it will. We used it to grind chicken for a sick puppy and it grinds legs bone and all very well. It ground about 90 pounds of chicken until the puppy was well enough to be put back on regular food.

It's funny that the product pictures show chicken wings (bone in) loaded in the feed tray and some meat ground so one would assume that this grinder can grind bones. Why are you tricking customers into thinking this product grinds bones when you say it won't.

It may do it,but I would not recommend putting bones through any meat grinder,it would be hard on any cutting knife.I hope this helps.Thanks Randy

Yes, It will grind any meat, and it has several grinding plates to grind from fine to course.

I only used the shears once - on raw chicken that I needed to cut into smaller pieces for a recipe. I did not find it very useful in this context. Many years ago my parents had a similarly desgned shears that they used for cooked chicken. If cooked, I am guessing, but I think that it will cut through the chicken leg and thigh bones because the bones will become more brittle when dried by the cooking process. This is just a guess, though.

My guess is you could. The mesh is very fine, would catch any chicken bone easily I would think... I use ours to strain very fine items, like quinoa.

No this won't grind meat with bones in it. Meat like chicken and rabbit, should be ok. The best electric meat grinder for doing meat with bones is the American Eagle #12 or #22. They grind chicken, turkey, duck and rabbit. Red meat bones are too dense and hard; you'll need a really powerful commercial grinder for that.

I could not get it to grind chicken bones but my husband could do it. This unit needs good old fashioned muscles and patience...and I do not have either one of those qualities. If you're willing and able to put in the work, this is a great unit. It has everything you need for a reasonable price!

Turkey legs are pretty large. I have used it for chicken legs, which works fine as long as they are not frozen. You can put chicken legs in whole. If you cut up the turkey legs first, it might not be a problem. My concern would be the size of the bones in the turkey legs.

Of course it will do great. We even use it to grind whole chickens, bones and all, for dog food.

If you dip it in buttermilk and then the breadcrumbs or whatever, yes it will. As long as it's not dripping. If its dripping, the fan may blow all the liquid off the meat. The basket is not that big, room for about 3 legs or two breasts. The cooking is done by super-heated, recirculating air. That's why if you are doing fish sticks or chicken tenders, you need to spray a little cooking spray on the items so they have a little moisture and are not completely dried out. Aso, I believe they just came out with a larger capacity model. You might check that so you can make more fried chicken pieces at one time.

I have been grinding dog food for several years using primarily a mixture of chicken, bones and all, wings and legs are the easiest, and deer meat if I can get it. I started using a Sam Baere machine, I'm not sure if it was the 110 or larger model. It worked but I had to chop up the chicken which was a real pain. After burning up two of the smaller machines, I finally ordered a Same Baere Model SB840. It was a little pricey but well worth it. I don't have to chop wings or drumsticks. Just feed them in whole. If you are going to grind chicken bones, this machine is what you need.

I use it for the same purpose --grinding whole chickens for our dogs. It's not bad to clean it. Comes apart easily and I put what I can in the dishwasher.

yes! this works great as a food processor. I've made chicken salad and grinded other foods with no problem

I bet it can, have done several hundred pounds of chicken, WITH bone, and no issues at all....

No it would break if you grind poultry bones no bones what so ever, the grinding plates Could do it, but the meat grinder itself it would break, because it is plastic, I would not dare put bones in my meat grinder

I think unlikely, though I haven't tried it. The round metal "blade" is not sharp so I imagine bone would not get ground up. The meat gets pushed through the metal attachment and becomes minced. It's mainly for small jobs and bones would probably break the mechanism. Hope that helps.
