Answers:
You Americana's call it ground beef.
We have mutton, pork and chicken available as well.
It is use for meatballs, hamburger patties or boiled with vegetables, or curried.
Mixed with sausage meat and made into meat loaf.
There is also minced fruit for sweet tarts.

I'm from New Jersey, but spent quite some time living abroad in the U.K.
I believe the "mince" that people from the U.K. often refer to is the equivalent of our ground....
so minced beef, minced turkey, minced lamb etc. = ground beef, ground turkey, ground lamb
Correct me if I'm wrong friends across the pond....
Usually ,if it is a British recipe, mince refers to a super lean ground beef.
usually refers to ground beef but can be ground anything lamb ,pork, poultry.
so its burger!

Thanks for this question... I was wondering too.
I'm guessing it's ground meat. In my world, mince is that awful yucky mince meat that grandmothers spice up with all kinds of stuff and call it mince meat......that they put in pies.....I equate it with that horrible fruitcake that some of us get every year at Christmas, and either use as a door stopper, a "pass on gift" or goes straight in the garbage.
Here in NZ it is just finely minced meat like pork, beef, mutton etc, and is used for meat patties, added to pasta sauce once cooked, pies (both family and individual sizes.
it's ground up
beef...or ...veal...or chicken...or lamb..
the mince actually looks like long stands of spaghetti...
and is great for making pies...rissoles.....used in sauces....
and i like to use mince for a meat loaf
