Looking to buy mince beef? You don't have to settle for cheap, supermarket mixtures. To produce the best possible culinary results, you want to choose quality mince. Lower quality beef mince products can be full of undesirable amounts of fat.
The first thing to understand about beef mince is just how important it is for sustainability. Trimmings and secondary cuts make up approximately 40% of a beef carcass — a lot of which will inevitably be turned into mince. If we weren't mincing beef, we might be wasting millions of tonnes of meat a year.
At Peter Bouchier, we only use high-quality meat to produce our beef mince. Our grass-fed beef cuts are sourced from farms in New South Wales and Victoria and ground here, in-house.
Here are some other great reasons why whole muscle cuts make the best mince meat:
Fortunately, all Australian beef mince is legally allowed to come only from 100% muscle meat. You won't find any tongue, tripe, or other undesirables hiding in your beef mince. All Australian beef mince needs to be labelled with:
It's always best to buy quality beef mince from a reputable seller who grinds their own mince in-house, like Peter Bouchier.
The difference is etymological. North American countries like Canada and the United States 'grind' their beef. In Britain and other Commonwealth countries, beef is 'minced'.
Gone are the days of using harmful powders and preservatives to give ground beef a long shelf life. If you buy our beef mince fresh in-store, we recommend using it within two days. If ordered online, check the packaging for our recommended use-by date.
Packaged beef mince that is browning or greying on the sides, on top, or all the way through may have gone off. Otherwise, you can tell beef mince is off with a simple sniff test. If mince beef smells sour or off, it may be spoiled.
Food safety must be a priority when handling ground beef and beef mince. Minced meat has a greater surface area than most other cuts of meat; that surface area presents a greater risk of bacterial penetration.
Here are some tips to follow when preparing beef mince for consumption:
For beef mince that has to be cooked and stored, follow these instructions:
The master butchers at Peter Bouchier are dedicated to food safety and responsible service, so you can be sure the meat delivered to you will be perfectly safe.
Beef mince is beloved across the globe for its versatility. Here are some of our favourite beef mince recipes from international culinary traditions:
