  -> Thanks, ground is also fine but - having worked for the meat industry - they call it minced, the size reduction process usually takes place in mincers.

ground meat products


Explanation:
Ground meat products

Here, the process of grinding meat into small pieces (such as minced meat) or pastes (sausage-meat), aims to change the texture of the meat and allow it to be formed into different shapes. Most commonly, these are cylindrical sausages enclosed by a casing (skin), or flat discs (patties). Both enable more rapid cooking, and both methods allow for spices and other flavours to be included.
