What Does Ancestral Blend Taste Like?

The ancestral blend camouflages the organ meat’s appearance and gamey flavor, especially disguised as a juicy ancestral blend beef burger. Despite being among the more undesirable beef cuts, beef liver and beef kidney are just as delicious as they are nutritious.

Furthermore, since the offals are paired with flavorful ground beef, you can hardly distinguish between our standard grass-finished ground beef and the ancestral blend. 

Why Are Burgers Perfect For Ancestral Blend?

Our ancestral blend was created to help customers grow more comfortable with nose-to-tail eating, in which every part of the cattle is used.

Everyone loves a good burger so we thought some organ meats in a burger is the perfect way to do this since it is a dish that everyone loves! This way, you may still reap the benefits of organ meats like beef liver and beef kidney without seeing the offals themselves.

And because it is also mixed with ground beef at a lean/fat ratio of 85/15, it will be very difficult to tell the difference between an ancestral blend beef burger versus a traditional burger.

This is a genius way to get an incredible amount of nutrients into kids and picky eaters without them even knowing and in fact having them LOVE the flavor :) 

In addition, our ancestral blend burgers are ideal for those who follow carnivore, ketogenic, or paleo diets since it contains even more protein (approximately three grams) than regular ground beef plus you are getting a huge doe of bioavailable nutirnets and micro nutrients.

List Of Ingredients You Need To Make Ancestral Blend Beef Burgers Recipe

• A 1-pound pack of organic grass-fed Ancestral Blend

You can substitute garlic and onion powder with fresh diced garlic and onions as well. If you choose to do this, we recommend sauteing them in a pan with salt and pepper before mixing them into the ground beef for added flavor.

How to Make Ancestral Blend Beef Burgers: Step by Step

Now that you know the ingredients you need to make ancestral blend beef burgers let’s dive in on how to cook them. The recipe below is tailored to grilling burgers. Still, you may cook them on the stovetop using a grill pan or standard frying pan. It is just more challenging to attain the same level of charring without a barbecue. 

1. In a bowl, combine 6 tablespoons of salt and 1 tablespoon of freshly ground pepper, garlic, and onion powder. Shake the bowl to blend the spices.
2. Pre-heat your grill on high heat for approximately ten to twelve minutes. 
3. While the grill is pre-heating, start to form your burger patties. To make quarter-pound-sized patties, evenly distribute the ancestral blend beef to make four meatballs. 
4. Next, wet your hands slightly so the meat will not stick to them while molding your patties. Pat your meatballs flat, shaping the sides and pressing downwards to attain an even burger patty. 
5. Season each burger patty evenly with the spice mixture, using your fingers to work from the outer circle inward. 
6. Once your patties are ready to go, use a non-stick spray, such as Pam, to do a quick spritz over the grill grates to avoid any flame-ups. 
7. Then, toss your burgers on the grill and cover them with the lid. After about a minute and a half, you will slide your spatula under each burger, giving it a quarter of a turn to achieve a nice score. 
8. Cover the grill again, letting the burgers cook for another two minutes. Flip the burger patties after and cook until they reach the desired internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit (71 degrees Celsius).
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

What Temperature To Cook Ancestral Blend Beef Burgers To?

Ground beef must be cooked thoroughly to ensure doneness. Since the ancestral beef blend contains organ meats, it is more crucial than ever to cook them until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit (71 degrees Celsius). We also suggest letting the ancestral blend beef burger patties rest for at least three minutes before adding any other toppings, excluding cheeses, since many people like to melt that onto the burgers while grilling.
