The Process

HRR's manufacturing process starts with fresh beef trimmings and beef fats with visible lean from the most reputable U.S. slaughterers of cattle and packers of beef. These establishments also meet HRR's rigid raw material specifications and are selected because of their integrity and their compliance with all applicable USDA/FSIS rules and regulations. Once the raw materials have been received and accepted, they undergo further inspection by trained HRR employees to ensure the materials are acceptable for processing. The raw meat is ground and desinewed. The lean meat is extracted through a low temperature processing system and is IQF (instantly quick frozen) on a specially designed freezing system to zero to minus 10º.  Finally the product is chipped, packaged and passed through a metal detection system.
