    What cuts do you use when grinding your own hamburger?

    Chuck eye steak. It can be hard to find ... but it’s worth it.

      Yea. I'll get every chuck eye steak I can round up when I can find them. Not too hard in my parts. My fave to grind.

        Lots of mixes for fun. But chuck for sure. I've been grinding bacon lately ala Jerod Broussard but he only uses brisket.

          Don't worry, I've allowed the wife to add ground beef trimmings to a pork/deer mixture.

        I usually go with chuck and grind in some brisket fat, as I always seem to have that in the freezer.

          chuck and the trimmings from priskets/primerib/steaks. OR you can use a mix of shortrib, flank and, fat trimmings. the shortrib/flank has a more intense beef flavor. once i even did beef heart/tongue with some fat mixed in. was VERY different, but I actually loved it, wife not so much.

            Honestly....I just buy Certified Angus Ground Chuck. My Butcher grinds it every day. It's very consistent. And I my burger game is just fine!

            Short ribs or chuck, with a bit of bacon.

            Got a bunch of Wagyu hamburgers for Xmas. I will be interest to see if they are better than mine. Not sure I understand the Wagyu hamburger principle, though. You can always add fat to hamburger. Still, a nice present.

                Brisket when I can find nice points, or chuck mixed with bacon. You can never have too much bacon!!

                    Nice Lonnie, I often buy their Prime ones and just smoke those instead of having to deal with trimming and cooking a 14# packer. Having said that, I have a 14# packer on my WSM outside, better go check on that puppy !!!! Burger on .......
