Ground Beef, Raw
Ground beef is a versatile raw meat product made by finely mincing beef cuts and trimmings, available in lean-to-fat ratios such as 90/10 or 80/20. It provides high-quality protein, iron, zinc, and B vitamins, though its saturated fat content increases proportionally with higher fat blends. Requiring thorough cooking to 160°F (71°C) for safety, it forms the base for dishes like burgers and sauces while demanding careful handling to prevent cross-contamination in its raw state.
