Granted, there are a lot of uses for ground beef. But one must remember that ground meats are basically cuts that were too fatty to make anything else out of, otherwise they wouldn’t have been thrown in the grinder. Working in a grocery store, I see firsthand what cuts of meat are used to make ground beef.

Controversly, lamb is an entire genre. To say that the finest cuts of lamb are at a 50/50 favortism ratio with simple ground beef baffles me.

Now I adore a fine porterhouse steak. However, the greasy juices that pour out of freshly grilled lamb are nothing short of addictive euphoria.

Growing up, grilled lamb chops were always considered a special treat. We’d have a big mound of them on a platter in the middle of the table and my siblings and I would see who could eat the most. I’m glad those days are over since, in those days, you didn’t even get to taste the first four; you just snarfed them down.

No.

While I love me some chili, ground beef conjures up images of Big Macs and family taco night. Lamb conjures up images of a delicious Indian lamb curry, or lamb chop appetizers on a platter served by a waiter dude in a tux.

ground beef, though…. i never thought of it like this. lamb probably tastes better. i’m a huge fan of lamb. however, ground beef is soooooo beloved that it’s hard to vote against it. i’m gonna struggle if it’s a ground beef/steak matchup. who knows, though, lamb isn’t far behind.

j/k; goooooooooooooooooooo ground beef!
