Where in east central Indiana can I get good tasting ground beef?
We always liked it when it really fresh (all red) but lately its has be brown. Some of beef had a spoiled smell to it. Are they any shops or places that you can get the meat fresher? We like ground beef that has more fat and is really red.
Sorry, I was not sure which category to put this in.
Oxygen from the air reacts with meat pigments to form a bright red color which is usually seen on the surface of meat purchased in the supermarket. The pigment responsible for the red color in meat is oxymyoglobin, a substance found in all warm-blooded animals. Fresh cut meat is purplish in color. The interior of the meat may be grayish brown due to lack of oxygen; however, if all the meat in the package has turned gray or brown, it may be beginning to spoil.
Try to buy meat from a butcher, rather than the market. Generally, ground meat form a butcher will not be more expensive and it will be much fresher.
