Great quality

Love the lean ground beef from Sam's. Makes wonderful patties and meatloaf. I really appreciate that the beef is not watery/bloody in the package.

Great bulk buy

I buy this ground beef package at every Sam's visit. Cut each loaf in half then vacuum seal each pound and freeze. Would like a 70/30 option for smash burgers but this works for everything we use ground beef for.

Great ground beef!

I use a kitchen scale and a bowl to separate this into smaller servings. I put each serving into a freezer bag and store them in the freezer until I need them. It's great meat!

The quality of the ground beef is atrocious.

I cooked 2 burgers and when I went to turn them they were swimming in fat. I have bought my meat at Sam's for several years and recently the ground beef and pork chops are really bad.

Something is not right with this meat lately

The last 2 times I've purchased this meat something is different about it too thick to chunky and the taste is horrible $30 a pack is too much to spend and you have to throw it away

Disappointed !

There is no way this has 12% Fat based on my recent purchase and not sure how it is measured to say only 12% Fat for such a large packet. I purchased it to make hamburgers with it but later decide to just make chilli and the surprise of the amount of water Fat in this package was unbelievable, I wish I taken a photo of that!. Well, I was able to drain all that Fat but when it drains I was left with rock-like hard pcs from the Fat in the pan (so I picked up a few and taken the attached photo). Of course this not going to change my mind about Sam's quality and service, it could be I just got a packet of hard Fat and seems like bad stuff for anyone.! This is not a complaint by all means and would be buying a similar packet again to see if this happens one more time before I judge. So for those going to pan fry with Chilli should be more aware of what is in the pan.

What Happened

I've been buying this from Sam's club for years Never a problem. This time the meat looked a little different darker. I froze it anyway just like I always do. Yesterday, I went to make chili with it. When I cooked it, it didn't smell quite right and it had a sweet taste. Threw it away and all the rest in freezer. $58 down the drain. Think I'll just use local grocery stores from now on. Really a Shame.

SHAME ON YOU

I don't know why you are selling this instead of the 90/10 we loved, but i can tell you I do not like this meat and I am looking for another 90/10 ground beef like this used to be. There is a strange unpleasant odor coming off of this and the taste is not good. I use what I have bought for chili and spaghetti ONLY, And all those little white dots you see must be water or something because the meat shrinks terribly. All the stores in this town have started to do things very much like this also, so I will have to go to Wegman's in Frederick, this should never happen. Probably Corp. greed.
