The beef does not have a fishy smell
Usually, fresh beef will have a light, characteristic fishy smell. Meanwhile, fake beef will not have a characteristic fishy smell.
In addition, if real beef has an unpleasant smell, it proves that the cow is sick or the meat has been left too long and is no longer fresh.
The beef has turned black
Usually, good beef will have a bright red color. If the meat turns dark brown, or even black, you should not buy it. This meat is often left too long and loses water. The meat is even slimy.
Ground beef
Ground beef can be used to make grilled dishes, as a filling for some dishes or used to cook soup. However, you should not choose the type of ground beef available at the market. The reason is that this part of the meat is usually the shredded meat that has been filtered out and will not be delicious. The seller can even use pieces of meat to grind or mix in pork for grinding.
