Can you sear beef and then grind it for an extra rare burger? They say that eating rare ground beef is dangerous because it all gets mixed up but steak is ok if you sear it. So why not sear it and then grind it?

assuming that your grinder is sterile, yeah you can do it.

[Anonymous No.10388400]

If you have access to a grinder and can grind fresh cuts of beef just prior to cooking, you don't need to worry about rare ground beef.

[Anonymous No.10388418]

Yes.

In fact if you trust your meat provider you could always just chuck your steak in the freezer for a week at -4 or under to kill of any parasites (this will not get rid of bacteria), and then cook the steak any way you want it or just eat it raw. The worst that can happen is a really bad cause of the shits.

Steak is still dangerous if left uncooked on the inside

Bacterial infections and parasites are nothing compared to the viral risks seen in all countries.

Cook your beef well done and check with a thermometer.

It doesn't matter how 'safe' you perceive your beef source to be, no beef is safe.

Why are you even grinding it up

if you sear it then grind then it wouldnt form a patty it would just crumble when you cook it again

Yeah but there's no fucking point.

Once you've minced the beef, you might as well cook it through, since there's no reason to leave it rare anymore.

here's a meatball recipe where the meat is seared and then ground after. The meatballs are cooked through though.

Ah,

Of course,

Some simps crawl out of the woodwork

ALL beef populations have many calves contaminated with Toxoplasmosis

Rates are also higher in countries where more tartare is eaten (France, Germany, etc.)

Let's not forget prion diseases which are similar to viral such as mad cow in Britain

>Can you sear beef and then grind it for an extra rare burger
Yes. But:

> So why not sear it and then grind it?
The resulting "burger" won't stick together. You'd have meat mush, not an actual burger patty.

[Anonymous No.10390721]

>>10390717
....not to mention that "Rare" burgers have an awful pasty texture anyway. Medium rare is perfect for a burger.

Just use good meat--ideally something you grind yourself right before you form the patty. At that point the risk is insignificant.

Prions can survive several hundred degrees C. Your food will be charcoal long before the prions are denatured.

[Anonymous No.10390795]

>>10390726
You clearly don't know shit if you think mad cow disease is caused by a virus.
Even steam autoclave doesn't destroy prions. The accepted method of sterilization isn't enough to destroy prions. Do you think cooking on your shitty electric stove in your one bedroom apartment is going to do shit?

For real though, any grocery store-bought ground beef, purchased in the US, no matter the “quality” I.e. organic, grass fed, hormone free, is all going to contain traces of feces. Which is what causes things like hemorrhagic e. Coli and other G.I sicknesses that aren’t as severe.

Undercooked meat always carries some health risks. It's just more with ground beef because it all gets mixed together, all you need is a tiny bit of pathogen here or there and it gets spread throughout the entire batch

I have to agree with this anon.
at work we grind our burgers with brisket+shoulder, and mid rare is probably the second most popular temp ordered with medium being the first. when I have to cook them well done it makes me sad, but to each his own. there is one lady who comes in once a week and orders a rare burger, I will never understand that shit. no texture at all

[Anonymous No.10391058]

>>10388392
>overlooks the stupid part
>enabling OP's stupidity

you don't need to sear it in the first place. you either butcher from a larger cut and only grind the inside or you cut the outside (presumably 'contaminated) portion of your meat before grinding.

Prion behavior is very similar to viral and was so similar infact that when they were discovered with Kuru they were thought to be a new kind of virus. That's why I said similar to in my post. Lrn2read
