The Ground Beef Mastery Ladder.
Tier 1: Buys 5% lean. Drains the fat. Pats it with kitchen roll. Adds a splash of olive oil to "make it healthier."
Tier 2: Buys 10%. Still drains it. Briefly considers keeping the fat but loses nerve at the last moment.
Tier 3: Buys 15%. Stops draining. Stirs the fat back in. Tastes the food again for the first time in years.
Tier 4: Buys 20%. Notices the bag is cheaper than the lean stuff. Notices it tastes better. Notices a pattern.
Tier 5: Cooks the mince in butter on top of its own fat. The pan is now a small pond. The pond is the point.
Tier 6: Stops adding herbs, spices, sauces, garlic, onion, and tomato paste. Discovers it was the meat they liked all along.
Tier 7: Forgets the salt one evening. Eats it anyway. Realises halfway through that it didn't need the salt either. Sits with that for a while.
Tier 8: Eats 500g in one sitting. Is full. Is not hungry until tomorrow lunchtime. Quietly suspicious of the last twenty years of breakfast advice.
Tier 9: Buys mince for breakfast. Cooks it in tallow. Eats it with three eggs. Goes about their day.
Tier 10: Asks the butcher for 70/30. The butcher nods like a man recognising one of his own.
The journey is not from lean to fatty. The journey is from being afraid of food to being fed by it.
