Save Money On Extra Lean Ground Beef Patties
If you are like alot of others who are watching their fat calories, you may be wary of red meat. Here is a tip: Look for lean cuts of beef from the round or chuck which are usually less expensive. Find a nice lean cut on sale. Ask the butcher if he will trim off the excess fat and grind it for you. You will want to ask to have it ground three times for the proper texture. Now it is ready to take home and make your patties. Stores sell small plastic molds for forming patties which are very inexpensive and really easy to use. Typically making beef patties this way will result in beef that is between 93-97% lean and will cost about half as much as the pre formed patties.

| Fresh Extra Lean Ground Beef Patties made for about 1.99 lb. If you are grilling lean patties like this I recommend using a non-stick grilling spray applied to a clean grilling surface before cooking. Thepatties will be so lean that they may tend to stick to the grill. Otherwise cook in a nonstick fry pan without any added oil. |
