The most universal protein on NYC menus: burgers and sliders, taco and burrito fillings at taquerias, bolognese and meatballs in Italian spots, chili, shepherd's pie, and stuffed dishes.

Reading the ground beef number
Wholesale meat in NYC is quoted by the case and compared per pound — that per-pound rate is the cleanest way to line up suppliers and pack sizes. What you pay tracks the cut, the USDA grade (Choice, Prime and branded programs like Certified Angus run higher) and how much trim you're getting.
Across the year the trend has been up.
Keeping your food cost in range
Food cost in the city usually lands between 28% and 35%. Watch the per-pound rate on your headline items and set your menu price off it so a market swing doesn't eat the margin.
Match the lean ratio to the job: 80/20 for juicy burgers, 90/10 for sauces and chili where you drain less fat. Check bright color and use fresh fast or freeze in portions; spec the grind coarseness for burger texture.
