All stupidmarket beef is ground once, they simply use a a plate with
smaller holes, usually 3/16".

Larger cuts of beef are internally sterile, they contain no bacteria.
Grinding your own allows you to cook as rare as you like, even eat it
raw which many do; beef tartar. I've been grinding meat myself for
probably longer than you're alive, it's never made me sick because I
either cook it immediately or freeze it... the ground beef at the
stupidmarket was ground a day or three ago, plus you've no idea
what/who's in it. Fancy schmacy butcher shops sell filthy ground beef
because their grinders are not professionally steam cleaned every
night, if cleaned at all for days. I never buy preground mystery
meat. A good quality meat grinder for home use costs about $150.
It'll grind 10 pounds in under five minutes and another five minutes
for clean up. Grinding ones own meat is a no brainer... a functional
brain is something Roy was born without. Roy's mom should sue her
OB-GYN for not advising her to abort. This Roy schmegegi is one of
the dumbest drecks to grace RFC's portals for a very long time.
