Yes in our house we wash the meat from all the disgusting stuff from the butchering process that you don't see.
Then a second rinse of vinegar or lemon juice to cut the scent of the meat.
If you ever tried the two different methods of cleaning vs just throwing it in a pan, there is an aftertaste to most meats. Be it beef, chicken or fish.
Most of you that don't clean it is an American way I suppose, and just salt and pepper your food. West Indian cooking is different and is just the way I was raised to prepare meat.
We use a variety of seasonings to properly flavor meat for stew or curry or what have you.
This whole topic is coming up because this lady brought it up on a talk show the other day.
Even poultry, all the little yellow pus looking things in between the meat, most people leave that and cook it. That's disgusting and I cut that away when cleaning chicken.
Meats I can taste the difference. But to each his own. Primarily do it to disinfect the meat as much as possible. Not so much a taste thing.Chicken is for sure getting washed cause it definitely has a funny gamey taste when you don't, but I've done the taste test with steak and meat. Makes zero difference imo.
I'll give it a try with the mince next time.
Washing raw poultry, beef, pork, lamb, or veal before cooking it is not recommended. Bacteria in raw meat and poultry juices can be spread to other foods, utensils, and surfaces. We call this cross-contamination.I wash all meats that I buy from the market by simply running water over it. As someone else stated if they're not cut at that facility you never know what they've come in contact with. Also the cleaning of the sink is automatic for me because I was dishes with bleach anyway.
If my mom and aunties see you cooking and not wash the meat, you will be talked about and they are not eating it.
You rinse all meat. You rinse off all produce.
Believe it or not, lots of meat before it is packaged makes contacts with rodents like mice and rats.
All food you get in the grocery store makes contact with rodents.
Believe it or not, the FDA allows a certain percentage of rodent urine and feces into and onto food because it basically impossible to eliminate them mofos from slaughter houses and food processing plants. If you don’t believe me, look it up.
Grocery stores are infested with rodents. You would be surprised how many rodents are crawling around the meats, dairy and produce at night when the store closes for business.
Talk to anybody you know who works in a grocery store, food distribution center and they will confirm it.
Even a can of soda or a can of beer. Rodents crawl all over the packaging and shit and piss all over shit.
Everytime I get a soda can I rinse off the top, if no water is available I wipe the top of before drinking from it or sticking a straw into it.
Rinse off all meats and produce. Wipe off al food packaging before opening it.
How many people have you heard of got sick from not washing off their soda cans?
Washing raw poultry, beef, pork, lamb, or veal before cooking it is not recommended. Bacteria in raw meat and poultry juices can be spread to other foods, utensils, and surfaces. We call this cross-contamination.
Some consumers think they are removing bacteria and making their meat or poultry safe. However, some of the bacteria are so tightly attached that you could not remove them no matter how many times you washed. But there are other types of bacteria that can be easily washed off and splashed on the surfaces of your kitchen. Failure to clean these contaminated areas can lead to foodborne illness. Cooking (baking, broiling, boiling, and grilling) to the right temperature kills the bacteria, so washing food is not necessary.

Real talk. Wiping it down might not be the best way to clean it, but I feel slightly better about drinking from the can. Especially if it's a single can stocked in a grocery store. Sometimes I see dust and debris in the crease around the top of the can, no telling what that can been through before they stocked it.Everytime I get a soda can I rinse off the top, if no water is available I wipe the top of before drinking from it or sticking a straw into it
Don’t use bleach on your counter tops or sinks man that is toxic. Use a sterilizing agent that dries residue free. With bleach you are leaving toxic chemicals on the surface which can be harmfulY’all don’t clean your dishes with soapy bleach water? My moms grandfather and uncle had that tb shit so she grew up using bleach to clean everything. All my counters sinks and cutting surfaces get that bleach treatment
And how are y'all cleaning ground beef, turkey, chicken?
Man I do the same, rinse that hotdog water offcacs have a habit of not washing meat.
hell i wish wash a hotdog before puttin it on the grill......but thats just me.
aint no tellin where the butcher hands been before he wrapped the meat and put a price tag on it.
mufucka coulda been playin with his nutsack for all i know.
Even when all the research says its unnecessary to wash them? What is your source to backup your defense of washing meat?I wash all my meats before seasoning and cooking.
and ill do this until i die,regardless of what anyone's research says.
Yes if you wash chicken or meat use a sterilize cleaning solution. I use a cleaning solution that I use on my clients and it is called Envirox 117.
It is an amazing cleaning solution that can clean anything from carpet, bathrooms, floors and mirrors and is completely organic and green. It completely sterilize sinks and counter tops and has the house smelling real good

I was listening to a podcast the other day where some doctors were talking about not washing meat at all (chicken or whatever..) is the best procedure. They said that you're doing more harm by spreading those harmful bacteria around the kitchen sink and counter top during the wash process. As long as you cook the chicken to 160 Degree INTERNAL temp..all the bacteria should be 100% eliminated.
But no, I don't wash my steak before searing or grilling. Just pulled some lamb chops out the freezer for later tonight too.
And how are y'all cleaning ground beef, turkey, chicken?
My wife is the real cook. Most times she'll ask me to clean and lightly season meat prior to freezing it or few hours b4 cooking. Anything I do she gonna correct the seasoning anyways.Share your seasons and cooking tips bruh
Just nastyword?
