About GROUND BEEF
Kroger Extra Lean Ground Beef is a ground meat product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger private label containing beef and natural flavorings. Per 100 grams, this product delivers 133 calories, 22.12 grams of protein, zero carbohydrates, and 5.31 grams of fat — a nutritional profile consistent with a 93/7 or even 96/4 lean-to-fat ratio. This places it among the leanest ground beef options in the Kroger lineup and makes it a suitable choice for high-protein diets, cardiovascular health-oriented eating, and calorie-restricted meal plans.
Natural flavorings are included in the ingredient declaration, which in the context of ground beef typically refers to beef-derived flavor enhancers such as beef extract or stock. No artificial preservatives, phosphates, water injection, or starch-based binders are listed. The lean profile means this product will have a firmer texture and may dry out more quickly during high-heat cooking compared to fattier grinds; moist cooking methods or the addition of aromatics can help mitigate this.
This product is free from all common food allergens. It contains no gluten, soy, dairy, eggs, nuts, or sesame. Suitable for ketogenic, Paleo, high-protein, and low-fat dietary patterns. The USDA recommends cooking ground beef to an internal temperature of 160°F. This lean grind is particularly well suited for dishes where excess fat is undesirable, such as lean tacos, stuffed vegetables, turkey-alternative meatballs, and high-protein meal prep applications.
