However if you go over 30% it's no longer ground beef which is why you make 28% your max label. I can't remember what's it called, but it can't be called ground beef at over 30%. Very little profits per burger, might be a dollar per lb, so every burger matters.Įdit: the ground chuck thing might be wrong. If they go over, meat has to be reworked which cost money in the form of wasted time, so it's a delicate balance they run for optimal profits. The higher the fat, the cheaper to produce so BK and Sonics tries to run at close to 26% and 30% as possible. The spec must be within +/- 1% and must be below 20% fat so they are usually run at 81/19. Quality control for USDA allows +- 2% fat pct so 28% fat is literally the max you can go to call it a ground beef patty.Īrby's roast beef combines 90/10 (super fresh day old beef) with 50/50 stuff (could be frozen for an entire year) to create their "roasts." It's literally combined in a giant blender than put into a plastic bag from a tube into the shape of a roast.Ĭhildren's cafeteria burgers has stricter laws. Anything that goes over 70/30 can no longer be called ground beef and must be called ground chuck. The whopper is 76/24, so I'm betting Big Mac isn't far off.įor those wondering, Sonic takes the crown with 72/28 burgers. I've been inside a meat processing plant for BK.
