How people cook with it
Ground beef is a staple for many home cooks due to its adaptability. It can be formed, crumbled, or mixed into other ingredients.
- Formed into patties
- Crumbled into sauces
- Mixed into fillings
- Added to soups
To cook ground beef, begin by breaking it up in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir and turn it frequently to ensure even browning and to prevent large clumps from forming. Once it is fully browned and no pink remains, drain off any excess fat. You can then incorporate it into your chosen recipe. For dishes like tacos or pasta sauces, add it directly to the simmering liquid. For burgers, shape it into patties before cooking.
