Hey, he's been doing it for years so we all should, too! When I grind
beef for burgers I grind chuck.

I have ground a sirloin steak. IMHO sirloin is too lean to make a good
hamburger. I likely won't do it again any time soon. I still have two
sirloin burgers in the freezer.

I've never ground top (or bottom) round. Then again, I don't eat much
in the way of ground meat. <shrug>
