How To Make Fatty Ground Beef As Lean As Skinless Chicken Breast!

Marc Lobliner of TigerFitness.com and MachineMuscle.com demonstrates a method of defatting ground beef pioneered by Dr. Donald Small, then chairman of the department of biophysics at Boston University School of Medicine. Dr. Small developed a technique for lowering the fat content of ground meat as demonstrated in the video and a paper outlining the procedure, was subsequently published in The New England Journal of Medicine.

If you like beef but want to lower your total fat intake, this video is for YOU! Part of the "TigerFitness.com Lean Lobliner Kitchen" series.

That's a waste of oil, even if u dot use no oil that fat from the ground meat is gonna cook off regardless... So there's is really no point of doing that.

@picasso4dr I disagree. I used a little too much oil in this video, but you need not use much and as someone who has done it both ways, it DOES help leach fat from the meat. I also wanted something with SOME research and data so when I did this, people couldn't hate on me as much! LOL

Great video! Was actually thinking about this yesterday since I get some pretty fatty grass-fed stuff out here from Open Space Meats (they only deliver on the west coast but the beef is DELICIOUS). Will try it out.

My grass fed beef comes in a sampler pack of about 10lbs various steaks, 10lbs ground, and averages out to $6/lb. That's really not that much and there's really no reason why you should eat the processed junk from miserable, unhealthy cows.

@ClutchWave YES!!!! Mine is local and averages about $4.50 a pound--CHEAPER than most ground beef and steaks!

@TheTigerFitness This! :)

@TheTigerFitness well aint that some shit? Never knew that. I learned something new today. Thanks for sharing big guy!

[TheTigerFitness]

@TylerH2055 EXACTLY why I choose the cow I buy now at the farm!

[TheTigerFitness]

@bodebldr2000 The fat in the oil attracts the fat OUT of the beef and then the boiling water bath washes it all away! It is hard to find FREE RANGE beef at 97% lean and I refuse to eat mass produced garbage.

[bodebldr2000]

marc, why cook it in oil? deep frying hamburger meat? never heard of this before. Why not just buy 97% lean, fry it up and rinse it off good?

@TheTigerFitness i make ground meat, haha, part of my job as a meat cutter, 80 percent of the time, about 8 out of 10 parts of ground meat is fat, with a little meat to make it red. ive seen some gross shit go in ground meat,
