Approx 97/3. Our ground beef is made from whole muscle cuts meaning you are getting a far superior product than that of the big guys. Want to know why other ground beef is so cheap? It uses trimmings, scraps and low-end cuts meaning shrinkage, grease, and gristle. Our ground beef is ground using premium whole muscle cuts that are trimmed and cut by hand using 100% born and raised American beef. Remember this is going into your body and is your fuel. This ground beef has less shrinkage, superior texture and flavor and is more bang for your buck.
