    Ground beef is so versatile and it can be used in many amazing dishes like homemade hamburgers, tacos, lasagna, chile rellenos, picadillo con papas, and so much more.
    In this video I'm going to walk you through my process of how I grind my brisket trimmings into ground beef and cover seven reasons why I grind my own ground beef.

    Arnie, When I do a double grind, I will take the first grind and form roughly shaped long "logs" that I place on a tray to firm back up in the freezer. The "log" shape will fit easily in the throat of the grinder just like the first grind cut strips and being firm from the cold, usually does not require the use of the stomper. I like to use a few ice cubes for my final push of meat out of the grinder to get the last bit out of the auger/plate area. I recently found your channel and just love your videos!

    brisket, or any well marbled cut will work, so buy what is on sale folks! Accountant here...I did the math, if you buy large cuts or meat or from a whole sale grocery (costco) def cheaper than already ground meat.

    No idea how much brisket costs. I just look at short date meat at the store. If I can get a roast half off, I take it home and grind it. Makes amazing tacos and burgers.

    I just ground up 6 pounds of brisket flat in less tha a minute.
    Saved the 8 pound point for a roast.
    The brisket was 2.46 a pound.
    No need to buy expensive brisket.

    Great instructional video. The only thing I do different is I divide the point from the flat and get all of my burger just from the flat. The point is just to wonderful smoked or corned by itself. Thanks Arnie.

    You didn’t actually say it but that’s a great tip for freezing ground meat…after bagging it smash it flat just as you did. It’s easier to store and thaws faster when you need it.
    Need me some more OG I’m almost out!

    When I catch brisket on sale I usually buy several of them to use for grinding. Some people think what in the world would you take expensive meat and grind it for...thats not the case, especially if you catch brisket on sale you can get it for less than $2 per pound...that is way cheaper than good ground beef per pound. And like Arnie says, you know whats in it. You can even separate the fat you dont use and save it for sausage making etc.

    My first time catching this channel and love it! I really don’t know anything about real cooking so my question is, can you marinate a brisket before grinding or is that not advisable? It does kind of seem like it wouldn’t be as versatile if you didn’t marinate it though.

    Do you do any additional steps to make the meat less crumbly, so it will stick together better? I have double ground brisket trimmings a few times and the burgers don't want to hold together well. If you mix the meat in a stand mixer will it improve things by generating more myosin in the mix?

  • @cahoonm
    @cahoonm ปีที่แล้ว

    Arni i ground whole brisket. I ran through with 10mm twice. My burgers crumbled on cooking. I did not use egg, I think I should have used the 4.5 mm on second grind. Your thoughts? LEM is high qualify equipment AND support.
