hamburger

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'meat' is the definition.
(hamburger is a kind of meat)

'am taking grub back for her to consume' is the wordplay.
'taking grub back' becomes 'burg' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'to consume' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'am'+'burg'='amburg'
'amburg' put into 'her' is 'HAMBURGER'.
