As a self-proclaimed kitchen klutz who once burned water, I approached Member’s Mark 80/20 Ground Beef with cautious optimism. I mean, ground beef is the Swiss Army knife of meats, right? Spoiler alert: this stuff doesn’t just live up to the hype—it’s practically the poster child for “it goes with everything.”First off, the 80/20 lean-to-fat ratio is like the Goldilocks of ground beef—not too lean, not too greasy, just right. I tossed it into tacos, and it was like the beef was born to salsa dance with cumin and chili powder. Burgers? Juicy, flavorful, and holding court on the bun like a meaty monarch. Spaghetti Bolognese? It soaked up the sauce and made my store-bought pasta taste like Nonna’s secret recipe. I even threw some into a questionable “experimental” casserole with leftover mac and cheese and a can of beans I found in the back of the pantry—guess what? It went with everything. The dish was a hit, and I’m now the family’s unofficial casserole king.The versatility is unreal. It’s like this beef has a PhD in adaptability. Breakfast? Crumble it with some eggs and hot sauce—boom, it goes with everything. Midnight snack? Slap it on a pizza crust with some cheese, and it’s like the beef was destined to moonlight as a topping. I’m half-convinced I could mix it with chocolate syrup and it’d still find a way to shine.Now, it’s not without flaws. The packaging is so tightly sealed I nearly needed a crowbar to get it open, and my kitchen looked like a crime scene after wrestling with it. But once you liberate this meaty treasure, it’s smooth sailing. Cook it up, and the fat renders just enough to keep things juicy without turning your skillet into an oil slick.In conclusion, Member’s Mark 80/20 Ground Beef is the ultimate team player. It’s the friend who shows up to every party, gets along with everyone, and somehow makes the night better. Tacos, burgers, chili, or that weird stir-fry you made because you were too lazy to shop—it goes with everything. I’m docking half a star for the Fort Knox packaging, but otherwise, this beef is my new BFF (Beef Friend Forever).

I’ve grabbed this 80/20 ground beef for burgers, chili, and tacos, and it hasn’t let me down yet. Good flavor, juicy without falling apart, and easy to cook. You’ll get a bit of grease to drain, but that’s what you expect with 80/20. Overall, it’s solid, no-nonsense beef that fits any backyard grill or weeknight dinner. I’d buy it again without a second thought.

I always keep these in my freezer For quick meal prep. The quality is good, and the price is competitive.

Beef is getting crazy expensive, so quality is even more important. And this is good quality. I like the individual sealed packs.

Put one package inthe refer and other two in the freezer cooked frist one it was grand.weeks later cooked the second one and everyone ilated taste and textur it quite a sussaitno.

Super convenient 1 lb pack of great tasting meat

It is a fair price and tastes good, however I can't get the package off without making a big mess. Can you do it differently so it can be opened easier. Those with arthritis it is tough.

The beef is adequate 8020. I mean, that’s basically what we can afford with the cost of beef being so high. Of course everything is high that we need to eat. But it is cheaper to eat at home, making it yourself.

Super greasy, which I get - it was 80/20. Still, probably one of the worst meats I have bought in the last few years. I thoroughly rinsed the latter two pounds, but had a hard time flavoring the meat - it just wasn't flavorful at all. Not a great buy.

90/10 was out of stock so I decided to try this 80/20. We cooked two packs and left it in the refrigerator overnight. When we wanted to use it the next day, the top of the meat was literally a layer of orange colored fat, gross! I don't consider this a healthy product.
