Does anyone grind their own meat?

I bought one of those grinding attachments for my Kitchenaid stand mixer. I have questions!

First - what's the best cut to grind for hamburger meat? I bought a chuck roast because I like a good 80/20 mix but then I cut out some of the larger chunks of hard fat - I'm guessing I should probably leave them in there?

Second - what's the secret to grinding pork? The beef went off without a hitch but when I tried to grind the pork I ended up with a gooey mess. I'm thinking I need to use a leaner cut like pork loin or I need to freeze the chunks before putting them in the grinder?

Any tips or information would be helpful, thanks!
 
Grinding your own meat ensures freshness and control of fat content. Use chuck roast for juicy burgers! Happy grinding! 🍖👍🥩❄️
