Real, honest-to-goodness beef burger has been somewhat of a rarity around here. The prices are outrageous and turkey burger is leaner. I would also like to have some ground chicken to make healthier breakfast sausage, but it's expensive also.
A couple months ago, my hubby bought the grinder attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer. I finally put it to use today and it was sooo cool! The grocery store had ground round on sale for $1.69 lb! Pretty cheap for good, lean burger. Only took minutes to complete. So now I have nearly 6 pounds of fresh ground burger in the freezer! And the men in the house couldn't be happier. :) I would prefer it to be grass-fed beef raised ourselves, but it's a step.
That's funny- I've been wanting one of those attachments for my Kitchen Aid mixer for forever!Maybe I need to have a talk with Santa.. haha
ReplyDeleteI just put 30 pounds of venison in the freezer this evening- my nephew killed one over the weekend- and my hubby has already put an order in for jerky... hmmmm- guess what I'll be making all weekend? :)
