It has a really nice flavor and typically its got a little bit of fat, which gives it a really great flavor. This ground pork that we've purchased today has a little bit of seasoning already in it. If you find that in your grocery store, it's a great way to cut a few steps and buy already seasoned ground pork. Ground veal is this product that you see right here.

It's not as strong of a flavor, but it's really a flavor so it pairs really well with beef, and it's typically really tender. Its got a great flavor.

Ground beef comes in different layers of fat. You can buy 80, 20. You can buy 94-6, which is what we have here. You can also find ground chuck or ground sirloin. There's different ways you can buy ground beef."
