I accidentally defrosted stew beef instead of ground beef. Can I grind this kind of beef to make burgers?

Asked by tedibear (19315points) August 8th, 2013

I have a grinder and it’s only 18 oz. of meat so it wouldn’t take long. However, I’m unsure as whether this type of meat will make a decent burger. I always think of stew meat as something that needs to cook for a long time.

For the record, I don’t know the specific type of beef that it is. It came from the butcher labeled as “stew meat.”
