The weather is getting colder and colder, and at this time of the year, what people miss most is the hot pot, especially when a group of people come to rub a hot pot, which is particularly enjoyable. There are many kinds of hot pots in China, among which Chongqing Hot Pot, Beijing Shabu Shabu Hot Pot, Chaoshan Beef Hot Pot and so on are more famous. In these hot pot restaurants, there are 2 dishes that are a must-order, which are Fatty Beef Rolls and Fatty Lamb Rolls. The boiling hotpot soup with authentic beef and lamb rolls makes for a particularly comforting meal.

Have you ever had a similar experience, when eating hot pot outside, eating, you suddenly feel a smell of meat, the more you eat, the more nausea, and then you no longer have an appetite.

Remember when I went to college, the economy is more embarrassing, we go out to eat buffet hot pot, 48 yuan for 1 person, alcohol, all kinds of beef and mutton to eat, that time are about 20 years old young man, especially able to eat and drink, and must eat enough to get out of the book. Especially remember, beef and mutton front to eat, the bottom of the pot is relatively thick, no flavor, the more you eat to the back, the more you feel that meat is like duck flavor, there is a duck meat peculiar smell of the earth. The more I think the more wrong, so that the back to eat hot pot, never consider self-service.

So the hot pot store beef and mutton rolls, is not really beef and mutton? On this issue, to be divided into several cases to see, for businessmen, always only do things that are profitable, a penny a penny reason we all understand, so hot pot store beef and mutton rolls is not really beef and mutton, you can roughly do a judgment.

Now on the market, the price of a catty of mutton more than 50 yuan, 1 catty of beef also have to 50-60 yuan, you can refer to this price, the hot pot store is mainly profit is to rely on the gap between the dishes, drinks, etc. to make a profit, so a 500g beef and mutton rolls, less than 60 yuan, they will judge. Even if you hit the water meat, the weight will not increase much. So dozens of dollars of self-service hot pot, think about it, will never give to the pure beef and mutton.

Some chain brands of hot pot, for the quality control of ingredients, there is still a certain standard, you can rest assured to eat. But some unknown hot pot store, especially to heavy hot pot store, in order to make a profit, may be in the beef and mutton to do some tampering, such as mutton rolls, the use of bulk meat glued together, and then rolled and cut, in order to achieve the cost reduction, there is also the use of pork, seasoned with mutton grease and other additives, and then mixed with some of the cheaper mutton. A part of the hot pot restaurant in order to reduce costs, will also use smuggled beef and mutton, the price is very cheap, but these smuggled meat did not go through quarantine, there is a larger food safety problems, ordinary consumers are difficult to identify.

While it has been rumored that hot pot restaurants use chicken and duck meat, or even rat meat, these are purely rumors, because the state now takes food safety very seriously, and once found, it is the top penalty. Now very few people will take the risk. But you can't rule it out.

The vast majority of regular hot pot restaurant beef and mutton, at least the real, now strict food management, investigation and punishment, if you want to do business for a long time, shopkeepers do not dare to corrupt the reputation, the use of poor quality meat. At least not to make chicken and duck meat, or pork and so on to pretend. But there is also the use of mutton trimmings, frozen into meat bricks, and then cut into meat rolls, although the taste may not be good enough, but it is also real mutton.

How can you tell if the meat is real lamb?

Fresh lamb is more bright red uniform color, shiny, delicate and compact meat, smells fresher, no odor. If the other meat forged, it can be clearly seen that the meat color is not uniform, the texture is messy. And when boiled, an odor, no lamb which stink. General old lamb meat color dark red, not easy to cook, and small fat sheep, then, meat color thousand red, delicate meat, elasticity, can be clearly contrasted.

One penny for every dollar, always, so eat hot pot, go to the big chain brands relatively assured that any boss needs to make a profit, will not send benefits for no reason, most of the regular hot pot store, are using the regular lamb, although the price is a little more expensive, but you can rest assured that you can eat.
