Got hamburger that is about 90/10. Want to grind up a pork but to mix with to make some fatties. Do you think 60/40 pork would be about right to hold together enough or back down on the pork a bit more even ?
Plain meat can be a challenge. There is nothing binding it. If you add at least salt and mix well, it will get sticky and will look more like a homogeneous paste than loose grind, this will hold together. Most fatties are made with sausage for this same reason. The salt and seasoning binds the ground meat letting it hold the fillings with out crumbling...JJ
