Making your own freshly Ground beef in the comfort of your home is not difficult at all, it takes just a couple of minutes to prep and your food processor; and do you know that freshly Ground Beef tastes way better than the store bought ones.? I have tried it and you can try it as well.
Just a little bit of digression: I have stopped buying the store made Ground beef ever since I came across an article that says one packet of the store Ground Beef contains Meat sourced from more than 100 cows. Do you think that is ethical? Why not make your own Ground beef from the Meat sourced from a single cow?
Advantages of Making your own Ground Beef
-It’s tastier
-It’s sourced from the meat of a single cow
-You can customize it your own way
-You regulate the amount of fat in the Ground Beef
If you have a meat grinder, go for it but if otherwise, bring out your food processor and let’s make our fresh Ground Beef.
Note(s) : Make sure your hands, surfaces, and all your utensils are well cleaned before and after the whole grinding process in order to prevent the spread go germs.

I’m interested in re-grinding ground beef from the store, to make it softer. Should I freeze it a bit first? Or just try processing it already thawed?
I will advise you freeze it a bit otherwise the meat might get mushy when it’s processed at room temperature.
Wow! but i don’t have a food processor.
Thanks
