    I can't pull the plug on my Kitchen Aid stand mixer so I can attach the meat grinder. Seems to be really really stuck.
    Any useful thoughts.

    Yes but I can't get the plug out so I can attach the meat grinder to the mixer. I'm thinking maybe penetrating oil.

    Remember, if the grinder doesn't work, you can always beat your meat.

    Not sure why you want to stick your meat in a grinder, but okay.

    Next time use the meat stroker attachment! I use a small clamp to free things that stuck Lanny...works pretty well with jar lids that will bruise your palms trying to open. A clamp with a bar you can grip...not a C clamp...use the bar as leverage and you can open almost any thing stuck shut..standard metal wood clamp should do the trick

    I have same setup. Could it be cross threaded? Try whacking a few times, not kidding. Let me look at my machine and see if I get inspiration.
    You can also cut up meat, freeze 15 minutes, and put in food processor.

    Download the GRINDR app. Lots of good tips and people who can help you get your meat grinder unstuck. They will link you up with nearby experts, some may even be your neighbors.

    Put a very hot and wet towel around it so the aluminum heats up and expands.
