"the shredding disk is awesome for grating frozen butter for things like biscuits and other pastry doughs."
"I absolutely love the adjustable slicing blade on my Breville. ... Most food processors don’t let you adjust thickness."
"it's stupidly unnecessarily powerful- without exaggeration you're done grating or slicing *whatever* almost as soon as your finger hits the pulse button ... Specifically I grate potatoes and slice cored apples with mine (potato pancakes and apple pie) and it's *ridiculous.* If there is someone in the kitchen that's never seen it before they are incredulous."

"I've used a Breville Sous Chef food processor and a Vitamix 6200 blender to make nut butter. The Vitamix is a lot faster and produces smoother nut butter."

Breville Sous chef has been amazing for us
r/BuyItForLife • BIFL (but not cost a fortune) food processor? ->Second this! I ended up purchasing the Breville Sous Chef recently and I love it. The Cuisinart was my second choice- just got a good deal on the Breville so went for the upgrade.
r/Cooking • Food processor recommendations; 10 cup minimum, dough capability, pulse ->Second the Magimix. By far the best I've had, and I've owned a lot of them (they didn't last long). I never thought I was being terribly demanding; I just wanted one that was durable. I even went through a Breville sous chef in just a couple of years--parts kept breaking, motor strained, etc.
r/Cooking • Best food processors ->I like my Breville sous chef
r/BuyItForLife • BIFL: Food processors. Which ones actually do what they promise to do? ->I've used a Breville Sous Chef food processor and a Vitamix 6200 blender to make nut butter. The Vitamix is a lot faster and produces smoother nut butter. So I guess it depends on the blender but I would say a powerful blender like a Vitamix or Blendtec is better than a food processor for making nut butter.
r/Cooking • Is a food processor all i need to make nut butter? ->I've used my Breville for many years and it's a beast. It definitely has earned its keep for sheer power and reliability. But if you're looking for something a little less pricey I see that Cuisinart's 14-cup processor (model DFP-14BCNY) is [available on Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AXM4WV2?th=1) for $235 right now. [According to America's Test Kitchen](https://www.americastestkitchen.com/equipment_reviews/2194-food-processors#review-reviewables-section), which does independent reviews, that model and the Breville Sous Chef 16 were their two "Highly Recommended" devices.
r/Cooking • Food processor recommendations; 10 cup minimum, dough capability, pulse ->I have a Breville sous chef and it’s always done a nice job.
r/keto • What large food processor do you all use? ->I have a Breville Sous Chef, but their newer models look even better. I absolutely love the adjustable slicing blade on my Breville. Most food processors don’t let you adjust thickness. It also has a French fry disk and the shredding disk is awesome for grating frozen butter for things like biscuits and other pastry doughs. The Magimix also looks great for bread specifically: https://www.seriouseats.com/best-food-processor-equipment-review?utm_source=googlepaid&utm_medium=con&utm_content=CjwKCAjw7pO_BhAlEiwA4pMQvD4-GBIyPNWkNi2MkPzipbu2DH9pSX3zkWjWs1J67BYcdrvTwokBxRoCmQYQAvD_BwE&utm_campaign=commerce-dd-FoodProcessorEquipmentReview_SeriousEats_Combined_CommSEM_OrganicLP-5121915&utm_term=&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACeazfC7FOgcpXKpLqQWsXHcwx3M0&gclid=CjwKCAjw7pO_BhAlEiwA4pMQvD4-GBIyPNWkNi2MkPzipbu2DH9pSX3zkWjWs1J67BYcdrvTwokBxRoCmQYQAvD_BwE#toc-the-winners-at-a-glance
r/AskBaking • Food processor or stand mixer? Is Kitchenaid still worth it? I have seen a lot on f issues people have either them as they don’t make them the same anymore. Not looking for something more expensive. ->I bought a Breville Sous Chef off someone on Kijiji for $200 CAD last year. I'm very happy with that purchase. I probably wouldn't have if it was full price though as they are pretty pricey.
r/Cooking • Best Food Processor Recs- ->I most recently used it last night. Definitely average to clean. I used a few blades and accessories for the job and cleanup was maybe 5 mins.
