Finest Beef Mince 98% Lean (400g). Fine Ground From Quality Grass Fed Chuck Steak 🐂

Information about Beef Mince.

When making Beef Mince recipes at home you want to taste the flavour of the Beef with no lumps or excess fat running across the plate in your meals. We have created our fine ground minced Beef to be tasty with a lower fat content & no lumps. We make our mince from Chuck Steak & some of the Flank to add a little fat giving it more flavour. Packed as 400 grams for convenience at home & ease of frozen storage.

Our Premium Beef Mince is ideal for creating great tasting meals at home, the flavour & lower fat content make your meals eat better so you can taste the added ingredients & enjoy the natural flavour of the beef. The Beef we use is all Grass Fed to make our mince, sourced locally in Ireland & grazed most of the year giving its unique flavour. The process from farm to finished product is always very humane & efficient using modern euthanasia techniques for all cattle.

How is our Lean Beef Mince made?

We produce our Minced Beef from quality cuts that are finely ground.

Our expert butchers select out whole Chuck Steak, primal cuts & some whole Lean Flanks, these are then trimmed (to remove unwanted gristle) before grinding. The Chuck, Flank & Brisket is mixed before the first coarse grind to balance the taste, the second grind of the meat is through a “Fine Plate” on the mincer to give its finished texture.

We choose cuts of beef from the Forequarter or Shoulder to make our Beef Mince because they are more “Fibrous” & breakdown to become more tender during cooking. The coarse meat cuts always have more flavour as they are hard working muscles with a high protein content. The flavour of the mince is a good balance between a bland meaty taste & the overwhelming ( more common ) fatty experience.

The Beef cuts used in our Premium Mince is the same as our Beef Brisket Burgers, the combination of cuts brings great flavour to your recipes.

We make all our Minced Meat products using the same cuts from the shoulder because it always gives the right results. Why not try our healthy option Lean Pork Mince for meatballs, or to make smash breakfast patties, you will taste the difference.

Those people that are looking to follow a healthy eating plan can buy this mince safe in the knowledge that this will be perfect to help them achieve weight loss goals. The natural vitamins, minerals & high protein content found in our good quality beef is an essential part of any good diet, but very important when feeding the family.

Provenance of our Beef.

We source all our Grass Fed Beef from farms local to production in Ireland & Northern UK.

The slaughterhouses / production plants are constantly supplied with a sustainable supply of top quality cattle. Local farmers have long term relationships with production to ensure continuity of supply all year round. Our Irish & UK Grass Fed Beef enjoys some of the best green pastures that the British Isles has to offer, with the higher than average rainfall there is never a shortage of lush grass for them to enjoy. The welfare of all the cattle is very important not only to the livestock but to the results it brings to the table.

The select choice of breeds we use for our cuts; Charolais, Limousin, Angus, & Hereford, having good confirmation & delivering good yields. Most Beef farmers & producers raise their cattle under “Bord Bia” & Red Tractor guidelines. All our beef is fully traceable from farm to fork, with all cattle having digital passports, showing farmers details, breed, welfare etc.

The flavour & texture of our Irish & UK Beef is recognised across the globe & found in many high end restaurants internationally.
