20 Best Ground Beef For Keto (2023 Updated)

Great quality canned meat. Doesn’t look so great upon opening with the fat in there but it cooks up well and is a crowd pleaser, plus the shelf life/exp date is usually 4-5 years out so I keep some of every variety stocked.

With power outages I’ve even been able to mix it with beans or other items and eat it without cooking. Great for survival or long term prepping. Shipping was good too, arrived a day early with no dents in the cans!! That’s rare these days lol.

The shipping time was extraordinary considering it was Xmas week! The service is the best as is the quality and support. This is my second transaction with Briden and i am very satisfied.

Great product, quick and easy meal prep. Very flavourful.

Hard to describe the product, as we have not yet used it. I will say that customer service from Briden is second to none.

I ‘m a beginner at prepping and Mountain House fit the bill. I wanted protein in my stock for emergencies. Seeing that it is good for 30 years I figure if I never need it I can pass it down to someone that does.

I have gone camping and tried some of their meal pouches and they were very good. The only thing about the pouches is that it says 2 servings and I could eat the whole thing. I am not a big person at 120 pounds.

Mountain House really stands out when picking up emergency food or camping. I will definitely buy again. I tell all my family and friends this is the best value of protein meals compared to any of the competition.

You would think reconstituted hamburger yuck but you would be wrong! I love to have a can in our fruit cellar on our off grid homestead at all times. So easy to use and what a timesaver! We are in Colorado’s high country surrounded by burn scars and now experiencing flash flooding.

Access in and out has been cutoff 3 times already this summer and I am sure glad I have Mountain House Ground Beef on hand. I get my ground beef from Mac Marvels on Walmart. com. Excellent price, fast free shipping! You can’t get any better than that! Give them a try you will be amazed!.

I purchased this item as a ‘Just-in-Case’ reason. I hope I would never need to open the can in the next 10 to 15 years, but I know I have it. I like the extra long shelf life of the product. I like to have it & NOT need it, than wish I had it & NOT have it.

For the price & the number of servings, this was a great deal. It will be a great addition to the other food I have stored long term. Be prepared & not scared.

As I cooked it for tacos, it left an odd pink liquid in my pan. i didn’t know whether to drain off or keep. I used sauteed onions and garlic and browned it. It was starting to look good. I added a little olive oil to introduce the greasy quality of beef.

Looked more like beef. Then my husband walked in and said “what’s that cafeteria lunch smell?” He did not mean that in a good way. Not to be deterred, I added all of my taco seasonings and a little water to keep it from burning while it simmered and I heated up the taco shells.

It was not as good as a beef taco even though the texture was similar. It was a little softer than beef. but I thought well it’s better for me so I ate my tacos. Just to be honest, it did not come close to beef tacos, but was perfectly edible.

I wish I’d used about two or three times the seasoning that I would have in beef as I think that might have helped. I eat a lot of impossible burgers and they don’t taste like beef either but I like them.

Now if I was a vegan, it may have tasted better. I wanted to eat healthier so I hope it is but not positive. It only has three less grams of fat then ground beef and I may have added that back in with the olive oil but that’s a healthier fat than beef fat.

I say to each their own. Give it a whirl while it’s on sale. Season heavily.

The problem I’m seeing in these comments is that people are biting into it and expecting it to taste like actual meat. There are GOING to be differences between the taste of the real thing vs the imitation.

It comes with the territory. Second, the difference between impossible and beyond is the difference between a homemade turkey burger and a burger from McDonalds. Beyond burgers are fuller, and meatier in texture.

Impossible burgers add iron to give it a richer flavor. But they cook like fast-food products. Both are great options for someone who’s into cooking meat but wants a more ethical option. But give and take, man.

I love this stuff. I’ve used it in pasta sauce, chili, taco filler and anywhere else you would normally use ground beef. I’ve fed it to friends and family who were afterwards shocked to learn that it was not real meat.

You can season it however you like and it basically cooks the same way meat would. I’m leaving this review partly because I just tried the “crumbles” from the same brand and they were so awful it gave me a new appreciation for this absolutely superior raw ground beef style.

Note: I am not vegetarian or vegan. I limit the meat in my diet for health reasons (inflammation). This is legitimately a quality meat substitute. I enjoy meat. I love food. I highly recommend this product.

The other day the tv had a commercial against a Taco fast food chain. It was showing a huge container of freeze-dried ground beef being dumped in a tub to rehydrate. The point of the commercial was that the food chain wasn’t using fresh beef.

However, I love the ground beef from this taco chain. And I realized that I could finally achieve the same consistency and flavor by buying my own freeze-dried beef crumbles. And just after that realization, Emergency Essentials had a sale.

The price was reasonable. I already knew how efficient they are at shipping from previous multiple purchases. So I bought 2 cans. Now back to that Taco chain. If they are using freeze-dried beef, they save on electricity because the meat doesn’t need to be refrigerated.

They make up only as much product as they need at any one time so no worry about waste. Sounds like a win-win. I’m looking forward to my next batch of homemade tacos. Happy eating.

I have been using the Beef Crumbles from Emergency Essentials for years. Not only is it a staple in my stockpile of supplies, but I use it about once a week for the evening meal. The beef crumbles are very tasty, probably one of the best tasting sources of protein I have found.

They are also easy and quick to use in spaghetti sauce, tacos, or anything else you might use ground beef in. I urge anyone who is serious about being prepared for the future to purchase this product.

Make Asian food. I’m originally from calif. We have had opportunity to try different flavorful food from India. Thailand , Chinese , Japanese’s. Vietnam … I developed a palette for these spicy flavorful food.

I crave that and who else does. Think of the market that can be open in your menus … think out of the box !!.

After noticing how many pets are getting diabetes now, which was not common when I was younger, I decided to find a low carb diet for my dog so I was excited when I found this pet food. But My gorgeous dog started itching on his first bag.

It was not bad so I decided to stick with it a bit longer in case it wasn’t the food or perhaps he was just detoxing. He is on his second bag and his itching has gotten worse to the point that he has started losing hair especially on his ears and his once bushy tail.

He is slightly dull and now his feet are itching and he has licked a hole in one foot. It also makes him drink more water than normal and he was already a big drinker. I’ve tried to contact the company twice asking if I should try a different recipe since I’ve heard that some dogs will itch more if their protein intake is too high.

Seems odd but I have seen a high protein food make one of my rescues start itching like crazy. But hoped this company would give me more insight into their food and perhaps they have experience with a few dogs that don’t do as well on the beef recipe.

I may try another protein source with this company but not sure since they don’t respond to emails and I know I sent the first one last week. But their computer doesn’t mind bombarding my email to review their product so I finally decided to do so.

Was hoping they would respond to my emails so I wouldn’t have any reason to leave a negative review. I realize folks are busy and I understand that what works for some dogs does not work for others but I’ve given them ample time to respond to my inquiries.

My poor dog is starting to look like I put him thru a blender. He also stopped getting happy to eat so I guess he doesn’t care for it either. At over $90 a bag I sincerely expected good results and prompt customer service.

Sorry this didn’t work out but we will be going back to his other food. Hope his hair grows back quickly.

If your dog has epilepsy, I highly recommend giving this food a try! Our Rough Collie was diagnosed with idiopathic epilepsy at 10 months old after having several seizures. After doing a lot of research and finding that keto diets reduced the number of seizures in people and animals, I had to give this food a try! Griffin will be on medication for the rest of his life, and I’m happy that we found a food that seems to be giving him a better quality of life managing his epilepsy.

Our dogs have sensitive stomachs so we took our time transitioning them to this food over 2+ weeks. The reason why I gave it a 4 is that the food is making our dogs contipated even with increased water intake.

We plan to add pumpkin supplements to help; it’s common for dogs on keto. The kibble pieces are bigger so it works out with our 3 large breed dogs. Paws of approval from Griffin, Bruno, and Belle!.

I have 2 rescue puppers a lab mix and a catahoula mix. My lab has had sever allergies from skin to constant ear infections. We tried every type of food and he was getting allergy shots every month. We found this one a little over a year ago and what a diffrence he has had no ear infections he isnt itchy and loosing his hair.

He has a shiny coat and is super healthy now. He goes for his allergy shot every 6 months now instead of every month. His energy has sky rocketed. Now he can keep up with my catahoula with his play. the change I am seeing in him is 100%.

both of my dogs eat the same food. Worked out great. The catahoula had heart surgery when she was a puppy and the vet was putting her on a special diet of high protein and due to Rollo being on this food we were one step ahead.

Both Freya And Rollo have thrived with this food. Rollo my 8 yr old lab keeps up with Freya my 2yr old catahoula. Thank God for this company that really cares not only for peoples well being but for our loved pets.

A winner!! Don’t know what other review is talking about it being to spicy I have a 8 year old who hates spicy will not cant even take black pepper! He is my taco lover in the house every meal he wants tacos and he loved this taco meat! I even caught him eating just the meat with a spoon as he danced around! Again this makes a lot of meat for tacos 50 oz can is a lot and you will have a lot of left overs this is coming from a family of 5 with one teenage boy! Meat is better quality then places like Taco Johns or Taco Bell not to fatty or a lot of grease in the meat! There is a lot left over to make another family meal easy for the next few days.

Made a bean dip with cream cheese and this taco meat that came out great also looking to use it for taco soup and a few other meals!Again no one in my family found it spicy at all as most of use added hot sauce to it ! We are not a family that loves hot spicy food but we did not find this spicy at all and we are going to buy a case of this meat as it is great to have on had for the kids making meals and the times the Dakota winters will not allow you to get to the store!.

This is perfect for setting up a buffet taco stand dinner service. The meat does not need much attention just heat and add a few fresh veggies like garlic and onion and it tastes like you spent hours developing the flavor.

Had a Mexican themed event and this product went well! The guest loved it on their tacos and they returned many times for more. Its a great product because the seasonings already packed in there. I highly recommend this for your taco party!.

This used to be my go to product to make everything from tacos, to chili, to BBQ beef sandwiches. it was so good! Texture wise, flavor wise I preferred over all other leading brands including Beyond and Impossible.

key word used to! Because recently something has changed and it is beyond horrendous. I do not know what it is exactly and I’m not sure if I even want to know because I purchased a bag of this looking forward to treating to myself to a great meal and was instead met with an odor so foul and overpowering it had me gagging.

this was just opening up the bag, after cooking it my entire house smelled like a combination of extremely out of date cheap canned cat food that had been left out in the sun, fresh vomit, burnt soap, rotting flesh, and toe jam.

No amount of seasoning, tweaking, saucing, sateing, or soaking makes any difference and the worst part? It tastes the exact same way as it smells. It lingers in the air, you can taste it every time you try to chew it, it’s the worst thing I’ve ever tasted in my entire life.

The texture has changed as well, this product used to have a perfect meaty texture that also had moisture, now it has the texture of something dried out and to my horror. it reminds me of consuming bug eggs or something.

Disgusting, putrid, completely inedible and a waste of money. If it’s not broken, don’t mess with it! I have no idea what has happened here but something has gone horribly, horribly wrong and should probably be fixed as soon as possible because this is the worst thing I’ve ever tried to eat and I will not be making any attempts to do so ever again (unless the original recipe is brought back).

I tried this product a couple of months ago and thought it was disgusting. The smell and taste are absolutely terrible, even when cooked with seasoning and sauce. I can’t quite put my finger on it – a combination of soap and vomit.

I recently came across several glowing reviews of the product. I figured I must have had a bad batch and decided to give it another try. Same thing. Absolutely disgusting even when drenched in sloppy joe sauce.

I thought something must be wrong with my taste buds, but reading the reviews here I realize that the great reviews were for the original recipe, not this new recipe. Don’t waste your money.

My entire family has been eating this product for years since it came out! We sometimes eat it more than once a week. with Spaghetti, and sometimes in tacos! We would often buy several packages at once to keep in our freezer for quick meals.

Somewhere around May 2021 this product has changed and NOT for the BETTER either!!! The package is now maroon instead of red. I thought it was just a rebranding. But they also now call it Ground Be’f instead of Beefless ground.

So clearly CONAGRA who bought the company has now decided to change things in the company the acquired a few years ago! Let me just tell you. they took an amazing product that even meat eaters enjoyed and absolutely ruined a perfectly good thing!!! IT IS NOW DISGUSTING!!!! The smell is so disgusting! It smells like rotten animal parts canned dog food! I didn’t know my husband was cooking it one night and from the other room I smelled a putrid, rotten smell!!! It was so sickening the smell filled the house.

I asked him “What is that horrible smell? He said “It’s the Gardein” and I was like “Whaaaaaaaat???? Nooooooo!!!! Are you burning it or something?” and He said “No. I know. I don’t know why, but it just smells bad!” I thought it was and isolated spoiled bag, but I see other reviews from May and July that say it’s different now, so I know we are not crazy! I have a freezer full of disgusting, rotten meat smelling product and I can’t even use it!!! CONAGRA WHAT HAVE YOU DONE???? IF IT AIN’T BROKE WHY “FIX IT’????.

I will be ordering all our ground beef from Allen Bros! It is excellent.

Is this a blend of ground chuck, ground brisket and ground short rib in that order.

Snake River Farms & Double R Ranch always produce high quality meats which are packaged & shipped extremely well. My entire family enjoys their ground beef and even my fur kid too. It’s the only ground beef that we trust to feed him raw every once in a while as a yummy meal.

Yet you mean that ask, “who does that? Give expensive ground beef to a dog?” We do and he loves it😋Yum! I love that it’s pack so well and comes in one pound bricks. I defrost what I need depending on what I am making.

So easy to have on hand in our freezer! I love it that it arrives solidly frozen and that means that the integrity of the tender cut of meat is not compromised. At the supermarkets or butcher you don’t know how long that meat is packaged waiting to be purchased.

I order from Snake River Farms and it’s a pleasure each and every time! With inflation these days on the rise, you have to spend your hard earned money on quality and Snake River Farms truly delivers!!!.

Wagyu beef, pretty delicious, not much else to say. If your on the fence, try it. As for the transaction, it took 3 days to get to my house, ice was melted and meat was barely cool, and some blood has leaked out of two packages.

Pretty disgusting actually when I opened the box. Threw in freezer immediately and hoped for the best. We’ve eaten it twice so far with no issue. Not blaming SRF, guessing it was Fed Ex issue. Stuff happens.

Definitely will buy from them again and hope to get it faster next time. If it happens twice, probably have to look for another place to buy from. Will update review if it happens again.

The burger I have to say is awesome. I did it two different ways. One with a McCormick hamburger seasoning it was good but then with just lightly salted. wow. who knew that just changing up how you season it would cause such a difference.

I do not ever believe I have ever contemplated a burger without bread, cheese, onions, tomatoes. but this burger could stand alone. Please do not go up in price after this review. I truly want to be able to continue buying it here and there as a special treat.

If I could afford the Prime Rib Gold. good gravy I would but we are paying off a house and I’ll live without it. My husband may consider divorcing me if I order one. He’s better than any food product.

So, I must refrain.

Flavor is good and I do buy it when I am pulling together a quick meal but sometimes it has extra gristle or bone in it. which is off putting! I do not like feeling something more firm in my hamburger that you have to fish out.

I get it almost every pound I buy. I started checking when I am mashing it for hamburgers or for a hot dish but it doesnt always catch them all. I only notice the gristle with this brand from target? In a pinch I will buy it at target because I need it for a recipe and it is organic otherwise I just buy local organic hamburger.

Glad they offer a organic choice though just wish it was more smoothly processed.

I’ve bought this twice. The first time I thought maybe it spoiled in the fridge despite that I purchased it a day or 2 ago, so I tossed it. I tried again with a pickup order and this time the meat smelled the exact same.

Like a legit fart. I assumed maybe this was how it was supposed to smell? Made nachos for dinner and it’s now 6am and I have been on the toilet for over an hour. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Support your local farmers.

This is nasty.

This is the only ground beef I will buy now. It’s unfortunate the new renovated store on Powers and North Carefree (Springs East store) hasn’t had it in stock for months, since before the renovation.

I live less than a mile from this store and now have to drive up to the NE store at Briargate and Powers to buy it. Not a horrible drive, but I prefer to keep my business in stores in my neighborhood area to help promote growth on the East side.

Since I have to drive to get this product, I now just do all my shopping there as well and only use the East store to run in for one or two necessities. Hoping TARGET is smart and puts this back in the East store or unfortunately my business now goes to the NE store.

Not tryed yet but i hope and believe it will be good as others 🙂

Just good.
