This was the 2nd time in my life that I have bought ground beef.  It was on
sale for $1.99 a pound.  (The first time was when I tried making spaghetti
sauce, years ago.)

I tried giving my dog some raw hamburger.  Wow, he loved it.

Given advice from this group I tried making a thin patty and then built a
pizza on top.  Instead of frying the whole pile, I fried the patty by itself
and then nuked after the toppings were added.

This was very yummy and filling.

I wish Roundtable would offer something like this.

Why are you wow-ing over the fact that a canine ate and enjoyed raw flesh?

My dog is very picky eater. He often rejects premium meaty canned dog foods.
I had never thought to just buy raw hamburger for him.  It is cheaper than
"Caesar's" or "Moist and Meaty."

I was surprised and impressed.

This part of my post was a bit off topic, but most of my post was about the
meat pizza for the human of the house.

Those are not raw flesh.

No kidding...and I hope you don't think eating mounds of hamburger on
top of a pizza crust is all that healthy.

One of my cats won't touch ground beef.  He's a very picky eater.  My other
cat just laughs at him and scarfs down anything I give him.  :-)

Cats are much more particular than dogs.  Mine are both fond of turkey and
chicken.  They love catfish, particularly my Siamese, but she just turns up
her nose at scallops which are my black male's favorite.

None of mine like any people food at all.  :-(

my cat loves peanut butter.  he's just as happy to get that as he is any
kind of meat.

Both of mine are the same way.  If I'm sitting in the living room when I
open the pb jar, they come running.  They know, though, that if it gets
opened anywhere else, they're SOL.

i wonder if it helps with hairballs any.  it seems to me that el gato
has fewer hairballish symptoms since i've started giving him pb.  maybe
it's just wishful thinking on my part, but something seems to have
changed and it's definitely for the better.

That actually makes sense, because the hairball remedies are like
Vaseline, an PB is oily.  Hmmm.  Wonder if Mingy et al. would like
PB...

that's exactly what i was thinking.  the oil, and maybe the fiber
(although i know there's not a lot of it) might just be good for him.

Cubit,
You will find it difficult to contribute anything to this group without
getting hassled.  Some of these folks just have to pick!
I appreciate you sharing the ground beef story.  And, on behalf of your
pooch, he thanks you too!
I will share a tip. We found that buying roasts and steaks and grinding
ourselves gives us peace of mind.  Knowing what goes into that mix is
comforting.  Also, it isn't necessary to cook it so well done if you
know what you start with.
We still buy the cheap fat stuff and cook it very well for large batches
of chili and such.
Good luck,
George

I didn't think to try something like that... so obvious.

I just made two small "pizzas" on portabello mushroom caps. They were
really good. Brushed them with olive oil (they really soaked up oil
fast). baked for 7 minutes at 350 to soften. Topped with leftover
cooked sausage, a 1/4 cup of crushed tomato, basil, hot pepper flakes
& cheeses and heated till melted. I will definitely make them again.

The mushrooms cost a few carbs (3.6 carbs in 3.5 oz; 2 caps).
