80/20 Ground Beef | USDA Prime/Choice

Chef-Grade 80/20 Ground Beef Blend

Upgrade your everyday meals with Meat N’ Bone’s 80/20 Ground Beef, a custom butcher blend ground in-house from premium cuts. Unlike mass-produced supermarket beef, this blend combines short rib, brisket, chuck, and tenderloin to deliver a rich, beefy flavor and ideal juiciness. The result is a versatile, high-quality ground beef that elevates burgers, bolognese, meatballs, and more.

Why This Blend Stands Out

• Custom Butcher Blend: Crafted from high-grade cuts like short rib and brisket, not lean skeletal trim or scraps.
• Perfect Fat Ratio: Maintains a true 20% fat content (±2%) for optimal flavor and tenderness without excess greasiness.
• USDA-Inspected: Every batch is inspected for quality, safety, and compliance with our 80/20 claims.
• Shipped Frozen: Arrives frozen to lock in freshness and ensure peak quality upon arrival.

Sourcing & Quality

Most grocery store ground beef is pre-ground at large processors using trimmings and leftovers. Meat N’ Bone takes a different approach by grinding whole, premium cuts in-house. This ensures a superior texture and a consistent, rich flavor that beats average supermarket blends. Our commitment to transparency means you know exactly what goes into your food.

Perfect For

• Juicy, flavorful burgers
• Rich bolognese and ragu sauces
• Tender meatballs and meatloaf
• Hearty chili and tacos

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this ground beef different from grocery store options?
