A brand of lean ground beef is being recalled because of possible E. coli contamination.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) says the Good Boucher brand beef was sold in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and P.E.I., but may have also been distributed in other provinces and territories.

The agency says the recall includes 285-gram packages with a best-before date of March 21 and 510-gram packages with best-before dates of March 19 and March 21.

The CFIA says the recall was triggered by its test results and that no illnesses have been reported from eating the recalled beef.

Food contaminated with E. coli O157:H7 may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick.

Symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, mild to severe abdominal cramps and watery to bloody diarrhea. In severe cases, some people may have seizures or strokes, need blood transfusions and kidney dialysis or live with permanent kidney damage.

I haven't bought ground beef since I got a KitchenAid stand mixer 15 years ago. I grind my own good quality, naturally raised brisket from my local butcher. Makes really tasty burgers which I sear medium rare on a flat top grill. Topped with bacon, sauteed onions, blue cheese, Dijon mustard, Boston lettuce and served on a brioche bun. I'm getting hungry now!



Stock photo, mine look way better than this. ;)

I have a meat grinder someone gave me, what cuts are the best to use? I rarely see brisket around.

I like brisket, it's less expensive than other cuts and perfect for burgers. No point in grinding a good cut of meat for burgers. I run it through the grinder twice, then ball them and into the fridge to cool. I add nothing to the meat.

To cook, I smash them on a cast iron flat top on top of my gas stove or a cast iron pan works too. Sprinkle with kosher salt, flip, add a bit more salt and that's it. For the most flavourful burgers, you want a ratio of 70% lean to 30% fat. 80% - 20% if you like them a little leaner. Most good butchers will have brisket.

Got a stand mixer years ago too for the very same reason. At least I can pick exactly the cut I want and more importantly, make sure the machine is properly washed afterwards.
