I bought this in bulk because of the savings of money, I made a big mistake, never again , too much grease, way to much, I will be buying pre packaged from now on

We have bought this product for years, but the last two batches of this ground beef have had lots of gristle and even some bone bits in them. Almost every bite has gristle. Sams needs to check their ground beef providers and make sure their packages are gristle and bone free. If someone breaks a tooth on bone in Sam’s Club ground beef, there may be a lawsuit.

Usually get our hamburger from locker so we don't buy much hamburger in stores but grabbed this as a time savor that day & it tasted unusual to us. Don't know how to describe it. Was not old or rancid taste. Smelled & looked good. The taste was a processed taste. Perhaps somerhing to preserve it?

I’ve eaten this a lot I’ve eaten this a lot in the past but this time it’s got lumps and is super chewy. Just doesn’t taste right . Maybe they’re mixing gristle in with it? idk, but I’ll probably be throwing it out. Won’t buy again. I’m the past but this time something is different.

How can ground beef be tough and chewy!!! I bought 3 packages in November…all of them are tough and chewy with gristle…ugh! We have used it for taco meat, soup, and meat loaf…it is tough and chewy any way it is cooked. We have been getting all our meet from Sams for years and it has never been like this.

We used to LOVE Sam’s Club ground beef, because of the quality & because of the price. Something is WAY different now; things have changed drastically! We just can’t eat it anymore. It seems as if their grinder isn’t working properly, or the setting isn’t at the correct setting. The meat is tough and the amount of stringy, fatty, hard & chewy bits throughout make it inedible! It’s DISGUSTING & extremely disappointing because I keep going back and hoping that it was just a fluke, but after purchasing this several times and having the same outcome….we’ve moved on to another store’s brand! And thank goodness! No more fatty, hard gristle when I bite into tacos, hamburgers, etc. We’ve wasted so much money in the past year only to be disappointed over & over. DO BETTER!!!!

I have been working in the food industry for 30 years and this meat is beef, true it all comes from a cow. If you love organs and brains and don't mind it being mixed into your ground beef then by all means buy this disgusting meat. I will continue buying Dillon's meat. I do not work for Dillon's but they are the only place in my area that sells real meat, when it comes to a large supermarket.

I have bought this many times, but lately the quality is awful. I bought 2 packages and I made Albondiga soup with one, When I was rolling the meatballs you can feel and see so much grease. When I was done the bowl had so much fat residue at the bottom.. With the other pack I fried it to make tacos, While frying it released so much grease and it smelled, even when I washed the pan, it had a lingering smell of the fat, I had to bleach the pan because it smelled disgusting. What is going on with the quality?? I made soup again and I bought the ground chuck, only 10% fat, I hope it works better!

We've bought Sam's Club ground beef for years. Last week we bought a package to make burgers and had to throw them all out due to a weird chemical taste. Thought it was just a bad package, so bought another one yesterday and cooked up taco meat tonight and same thing. It's disgusting. Not sure what they're doing different, but avoid this stuff at all costs. Complete waste of money. (I'm not the only one complaining. I've seen dozens of other bad reviews with the same problem in the last two weeks.)

The date of packaging was Aug 22. It expired after Aug 24. I ordered online for curbside pickup. This has happened a few times and I'm no longer going to buy fresh meats from Sam's Club. I can't afford to keep throwing away $20 of expired meats because I don't expect meats I buy to expire in two days after purchase. I'm tired of pickers grabbing the oldest meats for my curbside pickup. I have this problem with no other grocery stores in the area. Typically, those are good for 5-7 days after purchase while I often get 2 days with Sam's. I'm done with this.
