beef shoulder roast makes bueno hamburger meat

[fxsales1959]

earlier this week I posted that i got beef shoulder roast for $3.99/lb at Winn dixie. got one just short of 5lbs and one 3.5lbs. Mama got the big one for her carnita crock pot recipe for burritos. I think I'll be swinging thru WD again this weekend to see if there's any left. The other one i cut up and ground. did one coarse and one medium. All in 1.25lb vacuum bags for tacos or sloppy joes. definitely a good choice for grinding. burritos for supper.

Nice, no WD up here. When I need more grind I am going to hit up Restaurant depot and run some of the cuts there past everyone here like chopsaw . I know they had beef clod and I have no idea what that was.

Break it down into roast , and get ya some grind out of it too .

Shoulder Clod

This cut consists of five distinct muscles, three of which are fabricated into Top Blade, Shoulder Center and Shoulder Tender cuts. The remaining two are generally used for Ground Beef or Stew Meat.

I've been smelling that dang crockpot with a whole one simmering all day. I better get a huge burrito pretty soon.

It looks perfect . More fat in some of the leaner cuts than people realize . Works great for taco meat or pasta sauce .
I actually season the taco meat grind before I freeze it . I use a chorizo pre mix from AC Leggs .
Thaw and into the pan . Great flavor that way .

Temps are finally dropping here . Messed up when a high of 80 makes you think of soup of a crock pot cook .
I have a prime brisket flat I saved from a whole packer going in the crock on Sunday . Carrots , taters and onion . Also the mandatory dill pickle spear .

I smoked some 1/2 lb burgers last Sunday. They make the best Sloppy Joe's! Also made some taco's with them. Mmm smoked Taco's.

was thinking about pre seasoning the grind for tacos, but we might use for sloppy joes. i went and got another roast this morning while they're on sale. This one dedicated to tacos.

I'm getting my grinds crossed up .
I pre season pork butt grind with the Chorizo mix , not the beef . Seems to add something to the pork . I started using that for tacos when beef was hard to come by .

Looking good! Fun to see so many getting grinders and grinding your own! Good and bad of crock pots... easy way to cook but tough on a guy if you have to sit and smell it all day.
So you're saying you wouldn't like our in the 40 degrees range at night now?
