96% Lean / 4% Fat Extra Lean Ground Beef, 2.25 lb Tray, Fresh, All Natural*

Excellent price. Worth a little extra to have meat with so much less fat. Healthier. Not as dry as you might think, having so little fat. I make great hamburgers in a frying pan on the stove - husband always says they're better than any in a medium priced restaurant. A 4 ounce portion of meat yields a burger close to that weight - no massive amounts of fat to melt away - and still very juicy.

I never use the high-fat ground beef (like 80%,) even when some recipes call for it. I sometimes use 92%, but I almost always buy the 96%. It tastes fine to me for burgers and in chili, etc. It doesn't taste greasy at all since it has so little fat in it. And here's what I always think about - if you buy and use 80% lean, picture 100buckets of it. 80 of the buckets are actual beef. But 20 of the buckets are filled with FAT! Gross! Also, something that people don't seem to understand: some people think they are saving money by getting 80% lean ground beef. But 20% is fat, and that fat winds up in the bottom of a skillet, leaving you with just 80% of the weight. So you are actually losing money. See what I mean? And think about what all that fat does to your arteries and your heart!

My children and I enjoy the Walmart beef because it taste good without all the fat and added ingredients. The beef versus the fat content in it is great. Not a lot of extra ingredients, fat, so I enjoy that and I like to know that my children are getting a good quality meat.

This cooks well in different forms - like cooking for chili, tacos, burgers. It's not too greasy. Packages i have purchased are fresh. Save money buying in larger 2.25 lb size compared to 1 pound pack. Easy to divide and freeze. Thaws well. Recommend

like everything else, value is increasing, which in a budget is making it difficult to buy frequently. As for the product, it is good quality, and most of the time, fat content is consistent with advertised %. However, as of late, with the recent increased value, there has been an increased fat % that resembles more the 94-6%.

I wish the price was a bit lower but that aside the quality of the beef is always good. Lately the 2.25 lb package of 96% lean has been unavailable which is unfortunate. When that happens I'll usually purchase the 93% lean instead. In either case there is hardly any grease to drain off after cooking.

This hamburger was NOT 96% lean. It was full of the sinew or tendon and for the most part inedible for me. Usually I pick the package myself and its great. Unfortunately this was a part of a delivery order %26 apparently quality isn't important to the shoppers.

Originally bought 2 packages that were lean and delicious. then bought 4 more times and could not eat due to gristle. Had to throw away 4 packages. couldn't return, as did not have a receipt and threw packaging away, thinking it would be good, as were the other 2 we bought.

Every time I order meat through this service, the expiration date is either the next day or within 12 hours of delivery. It makes it impossible to plan meals for the week. If I want to make burgers mid-week, I can't — because the meat is basically expiring the day I receive it. It's really frustrating that shoppers consistently choose packages with the closest “sell by” or “use by” date instead of selecting ones with a longer shelf life. Customers ordering groceries aren't always cooking the same day. Please train shoppers to check expiration dates and choose the freshest options available.

It had to be tossed out ! Used the same day as purchase to make Chili. Browned it, I can't smell really well I have been on oxygen for a few years %26 my sense of smell, well it's kinda broken lol ! Anyway I drained it %26 rinsed it with hot water ( my normal prep, getting rid of all grease ) Then I made my chili as usual did not switch up 1 thing. Husband got a bowl %26 instantly spit it out. He said "taste that".... So, I did! It was absolutely (((((SOUR LIKE SPOILED MEAT %26 TO BE HONEST THAT TASTED NOTHING LIKE BEEF !!!))))) Well there went a $45 right in the trash %26 garbage disposal!!! Sure don't feel like Walmart saved me any money that day !!! I mean my mind started thinking all sorts of things ... Was that beef ? Did the delivery driver do something to it ? if that wasn't beef what did I just put in my mouth? The questions in my head just kept running !
