Low carb’ing it here, as well.

I was buying 73/27 high fat ground beef at my local Ralph’s. I asked if they could do a special high fat grind for me, like 65/35 or so. He said no, they don’t have a code number for pricing it.

I asked if I could buy high fat trimmings before they went “into the barrel”. He said yes, so I came back the next day and he had about eight pounds set aside for me at $1.99/lb.

Instead of grinding them up, I take out a handful and give them a rough chop, say into 3/8” pieces, removing any silver skin I can.

Then put a piece of cling film in my hamburger mold and form a nice 6oz. or so patty.

It wants to fall apart, so be careful.

I pan fry it (cast iron, of course). Oh man is it good. Taste’s better than most steaks I get at Ralph’s. Really meaty with that good fat taste.

Ralph's. I used to go there when I lived in La-La Land. Do they still double the coupons?
