Ummmmm No...since I have tried both ways & also while the meat is cooking, I am doing other things. Also I don't see a big deal putting soapy hot water in the Batter Bowl & washing it out...:rolleyes::rolleyes: But like you said to each his own....

I found that if I add about 1/4-1/2 cup of water to the meat while I'm cooking it, the Mix N Chop works much better. If there is remaining water when done, it just gets drained off with any grease left in there. I've never tried it with the Salad Choppers though, I don't own them as of yet.
