Ground Chuck

[brdbbq]

Tom Thumb had Chuck Roast on sale down here for $0.99/lb. Was wondering if anyone had ever made ground chuck out of this ? Ground Chuck going for $1.99/lb, so why not do it yourself ?

Do it all the time.

Got the grinder just wondering if there is anything special to pay attention to.

But would you need to add extra fat, like with ground beef?

 

[VitaminQ]

Don't get your finger caught in it! Or anything else, for that matter.

I just grind it up with reckless abandon, personally.

Wonder that myself and how much and how to detirmine ratio > aka 80 % lean so forth. Wife is a real PIA wehn come sto fat content so forth. Can't imagine why when she devours BlueBell like I do my beer. :grin:

It depends on the fat content of the meat... Just do it by weight. Cut up the chuck into cubes to make grinding easier, and then weigh out the lean, and add fat until you get the ratio that you want...

Ground beef!

OK... I'll stop...
