Why You Should Buy One of the Cheapest Pepper Mills on the Market

Peppermill
My guests are always amazed by the pepper-milling power of the pepper mill I use at work.  In this completely unscientific study, I will show you why it's the best.  Although I only have it going up against one other mill, keep in mind I used to work at Williams-Sonoma and I know all about pepper mills.  I've been using this pepper mill for years - I probably use it 20-35 times a night, five nights a week, and at home, and I still love it.  You will, too.  I promise. 

This pepper came from the medium grind setting on a $60 pepper mill:
Pepper1
And from my favorite $25 Magnum pepper mill:
Pepper2
Pictures were taken from the same distance, of course.  Sur La Table sells this pepper mill for $40, but it can be purchased at most restaurant supply stores for $25.  In Columbus, you can try Wasserstrom (2777 Silver Drive) or Polster (585 S. High St) Restaurant Supply stores.  You can even purchase a handy holster like I have for another $13.

I have been in the market for a new grinder - I guess its a trip to Wasserstrom's for me!! Yipee!! I need some new half sheet baking pans anyway - hmmmm - I am sure there are other things I need to buy as well...

I totally agree. I used the same mill at a previous job and the guests raved. Now we have pepper mills on the table, so the guest can grind their own...I think I kinda miss millimg pepper from the magnum.
