Instructions

  1. Cut the cuts of beef into 1-inch chunks and place them on a plate or into a bowl, cover them, and put them in the freezer or refrigerator to chill for 15-20 minutes.
  2. Run the cold cubed beef through the meat grinder using the medium size dye into another pan.
  3. Repeat the process entirely by chilling and then running it through the grinder with the medium dye one more time. I do this because it really distributes the fat more evenly, making the ground beef more delicious.
  4. Store the ground beef in 1 to several-pound chunks or 8-ounce patty portions for your next meal.

Notes

  • Make-Ahead: You can make this up to 3 days ahead of time. Just keep cool in the refrigerator and cover it until ready to cook.  
  • How to Store: Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The ground beef will freeze well for up to 6 months, either raw or cooked. Thaw in the refrigerator for 1 day before cooking or reheating.  
  • Feel free to preseason the ground beef with salt, pepper, or any of your desired seasonings before using or storing it.
  • Save the beef short rib bones for beef stock.
  • The meat must be cold so that it does not begin to melt as you grind it.
