Hannaford's ground beef
I was in the Hannaford in Gilford yesterday and much to my disappointment was told that the only beef that is ground locally is the 80% mixture. All other mixtures are reground from the 14 pound chubs that come from Cargyll. The meat man I spoke with told me he will only buy the 80% mixture. Being a fan of 85% ground beef, that explains inconsinstency in the flavor from one batch to another. I will make a trip to Shaw's later today and will pose the same question to them and let you know what I'm told.
