Minced Beef

There is lot to choose from when buying minced beef. In Cullens, we sell two different kinds. Our lean Round Steak Mince is made from over 98% lean round steak and is perfect if you are trying to avoid fat, but still want good quality mince.
We also sell rib steak mince, it's made from 85 - 90% lean rib steak. It is perfect for making burgers as it has the right amount of fat to give it good flavour and to 'hold' the burgers together when cooking.  Its also great for a ragu sauce or lasange as it's not too greasy either.
Unlike supermarket prepackaged meat, our mince is made fresh in store throughout the day. Prepacked mince is packaged in a modified atmosphere, this means the air is removed and replaced with a gas to preserve the shelf life and keep the mince red. We do not use this method, which is why the mince from a butcher turns brown very quickly - there is nothing wrong with this, it's just the blood drying out and is perfectly safe to eat.

Call in and check with us as to what mince is right for you!
