That usually means ground beef.

Do you have any farmers markets or something similar? I found that going to a market like that lets you not only buy fresh produce, but it's cheaper. There's no profit for the supermarket and you're only dealing with the person who actually grew the stuff.
Check out a butcher shop. Sometimes you can find killer deals on meat from a butcher shop.
